Nordic Naturals fish oil can't hurt that's for sure! We take their people version and give our dog the pet version...the only difference being flavor, I believe. Good luck.

Natural Options You might try a natural calming supplement. Cranimals Zen Dog Calming Biscuits has pumpkin extract in them which is supposed to be a natural source of tryptophan. I'd say it would be worth a shot over Xanax. Check this link out for some natural options...

Here is the link to a product that is sold on a site where i buy supplements for my dog. I know that this particular product is for dogs and cats and is a great overall supplement but the fact that it's a powder is supposed to help with teeth too. I haven't had any teeth issues with my dog but...

I've found that when my dog started licking/chewing herself it was because of dry skin. I give her an omega 3 fish oil from nordic naturals (http://www.luckydogvitamin.com/nordic-naturals-omega-3-pet-8oz.html) and we haven't had any issues. Hope this helps.

I'd suggest you try a high quality omega 3 fish oil. here's a link to the one i give my dog. http://www.luckydogvitamin.com/nordic-naturals-omega-3-pet-8oz.html I just noticed they have a free shipping special for orders over $20 too. Hope it helps. Good luck and keep us posted.

Calming Biscuits I don't live anywhere near the storm and i doubt anyone will be running out to the stores at this point that does, so maybe this is just for future reference, but i give my dog calming biscuits during times that are a bit more chaotic. They are made with pumpkin which i didn't...

Have you ever tried any of the anti-anxiety supplements that are out there? I know this site has two different products that may help. www.luckydogvitamin.com. Here are the two products i'm thinking of: Zen Biscuits...

Hi guys. I'm new to this forum but wanted to share some info. that i read recently about giving your dog human supplements because i was wondering the same thing. I just remember reading that not all human supplements are safe for dogs because some human supplements contain caffeine and...
