Hi Everyone! Has anyone on here ever used the ThunderShirt or a similar calming jackets for the dog? What is your experience with it?
April Rogers
Yes I use one for my dog she is very sensitive to storms, following the forecast and her behavior when the storm is getting closer I put it on her to help calm her down. Alot of the times it works
Katy Lauren
Kind of, my dog is very nervous of fireworks and when I first realised this I didn't actually have anything like a thundershirt but read that they were great for relieving anxiety. I actually put a baby grow on her which was not overly tight, but was snug. She seemed much calmer after this.
There's also a radio station which streams music which is supposed to calm dogs, I also tried this on bonfire night and it actually worked

Thank you for the feedback! I'll have to look into the calming music for dogs. I'm curious about that.
