Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets Supplements Calming Care Canine Formula Dog Supplements - 30 ct. Box

Within 4 weeks of using this, my dog’s anxiety noticeably decreased and her appetite improved, (she’s usually a very picky eater). When I ran out for a few weeks, her anxious behavior and poor appetite came right back which made me realize how much this product works. This product is amazing. Highly recommend!

This supplement worked from day 1 on our 13 year old male Havanese. And he loves the taste. Wished I'd found it years ago.

This calming care supplement has been a great addition to my pet’s routine. I noticed a positive difference in his behavior, especially during stressful situations like driving, meeting new people and vet visits. The supplement is easy to give, and my dog accepts it without any issues. I’m very happy with the results and would recommend it to other pet owners looking for gentle calming support. It helps with diarrhoea

This stuff really works! We have a very anxious dog and after about a week of this we saw a difference. She’s much calmer and just seems less stressed. It does have a slight smell but not much worse than regular dog food. Our dog is about 40lbs for reference.

There’s a lot of evident misunderstanding about this product in the reviews. 1. It’s not a probiotic for digestion; it’s for anxiety/helping to keep your dog calm(er than they might be otherwise). If they need a probiotic for digestion, that will have to be given separately; my dog gets both. 2. This will not be effective if you only give it occasionally, e.g. on the day of a vet visit or when there are fireworks. The directions on the package and in the product images here say “may take up to six weeks for full effect.” So don’t give it a bad review if you only give it for one day or a week and think it doesn’t work. Now for my actual review. My dog is reactive to other dogs while on leash; I believe it stems from a combination of frustrated greeter and anxiety/fear. She’s also a strong leash puller and the reactivity often kept her in a state where she was not receptive to training on the pulling issue. I was just about ready to try medication but I happened to hear about this supplement, so I gave it the full six week trial. I was not expecting a magic bullet here; all I wanted was something to “take the edge off” enough so that the dog is not permanently above threshold and unable to focus for the rest of a walk after she sees one dog. We’ve just passed the six week mark, and I *do* think it’s having the effect I was hoping for. She definitely still can have a meltdown if we can’t avoid passing very close to another dog, or if one barks or growls at her; but for instance when we passed a calm dog on a tie-out in his yard while we were on the sidewalk, she whined but did not scream and didn’t even pull very hard. This is progress! Moreover, in the absence of any triggers (dogs, cats, wildlife, noisy vehicles), she has finally started catching on to the check-in method of training to stop leash pulling. I had been trying that and various other methods for three years with virtually no effect. So by my assessment, the Calming Care did not magically fix everything (and I wasn’t expecting it to), but it seems to have brought us to a point where training is possible. She’s always been a handful at the vet as well, but we haven’t had a chance to test the effect of this product in that situation yet. I’ll try to remember to update my review when we do.

I purchased these for my anxious dog to help take the edge off, and while I didn’t see a noticeable calming effect for him personally, I still think it’s worth sharing our experience. My dog (about 100 lbs and a bit of a menace 😅) managed to get onto the counter and ate all 30 packets at once. Thankfully, it did not harm him at all, which honestly gave me a lot of peace of mind regarding the safety of this supplement. That said, even after that accidental “mega dose,” it didn’t make him any calmer, so it just may not be strong enough for dogs with higher anxiety levels. I do appreciate that it’s a gentle option and a nice thing to try for dogs who need mild support, even if it wasn’t the right fit for mine. Safe, easy to use, but results may vary depending on the dog.
