A dog thundershirt is designed to help prevent anxiety in your dog. Thunderstorms usually cause lots of anxiety in our canine friends thus came the name “thundershirt.”  This shirt is designed to provide a calming effect when your dog experiences fear, general or separation anxiety. The shirt is fully adjustable for a snug, comfortable fit. The shirt delivers constant, gentle pressure to create a calming effect. It supposedly has a proven success rate of 80%.  The experts at Petsmart say that the shirt is ideal for fear and anxiety relief from thunder, fireworks, separation anxiety and travel. It’s made from a lightweight fabric and they cost about $40.00. So do they work? You’ll have to try it and let me know. I tell you one thing, it can’t hurt and may be worth a try.

Remember, your pets count!
