Do you have a Dog that Hates Thunder?


Do you have a dog that Hates Thunder Storms?
I know there are several Drugs that you can give you dog, to help with anxieties like thunder , loud noises or even just you being five minutes. If you are at all like me, I don’t like to give drugs, when there is another way.
How does this thunder shirt work. As for WHY Thundershirt's gentle pressure works to calm a dog…no one knows for sure. There are theories, but no scientific studies to prove them. According to some experts such as Dr. Temple Grandin, pressure has a calming effect on the nervous system. Using pressure to relieve anxiety has been a common practice for years. 
Until now, there just hasn’t been a well-designed, inexpensive pressure wrap commonly used for canine anxiety. Thundershirt is changing that!
Thundershirt’s patent-pending design is a pressure wrap that applies a gentle, constant pressure on a dog’s torso.
 Thundershirt is designed to be very adjustable to fit most any sized dog...from the 3 lb Chihuahuas to 100 lb Goldens! The best measurement to use for selecting the correct size is the chest size.
What ever the situation  that makes your dog fearful, over-excited  A  thunder-shirt can bring calm and focus back to your dog. Thunder shirt is a terrific solution for many types of anxiety including thunderstorms, fireworks, separation travel, and crate anxieties. Also is a terrific solution for eliminating “bad leash manners” such as barking, pulling or reactivity toward other animals and people

From real world experience, we know with certainty that Thundershirt  DOES WORK. That is why we are able to offer a money-back guarantee. A survey of Thundershirt users shows that over 85% of dogs show significant improvement in anxiety symptoms when using Thundershirt.
I have had many different dog over the years and I would have loved to have one of these shirts; our sheltie was especially afraid of thundery loud noise; and would hide under the bed, couch or any where she could and just lay there and   shiver so afraid.  It would have been a God send to her and Me  not have to be so anxious
