If your dog suffers from anxiety, you’re not alone. A recent Finnish study revealed that more than 72% of dogs had at least one anxiety-related behavior.* According to the study, which involved almost 14,000 dogs, everything from noise sensitivity and other dogs to strangers and new situations had the capacity to put dogs into fight or flight mode.
If any of this sounds familiar, you have no doubt witnessed the havoc canine anxiety can wreak on your household (new furniture, anyone?). But even that pales in comparison to the pain and suffering it unleashes on your poor pooch. Your best friend’s health and happiness depend on you being able to manage their anxiety, regardless of its cause. Fortunately, you are not alone in this quest, and effective help is available.
ThorneVet recently launched Peaceful Pet, a groundbreaking calming formula for anxious pets. It incorporates:
- Six rigorously researched botanical extracts
- A potent calming amino acid
- Two bioactive forms of vitamin B6.
All these ingredients come together in a tasty once-a-day chew designed to provide holistic support for the healthy functioning of your companion animal’s nervous system.
BOTANICAL BLISS
Peaceful Pet offers anxious animals a soothing symphony of botanical extracts, renowned for their nerve-calming properties. They include:
- Skullcap
- Valerian
- Passionflower
- Lemon balm
These extracts work synergistically to gently calm and balance the nervous system.
STRESS-REDUCING BLEND
Peaceful Pet also includes a proprietary blend called RELORA®, derived from the barks of the Magnolia and Phellodendron trees. This unique combination has been scientifically proven to reduce stress, moderate anxiety, and uplift mood by promoting the balance of key neurotransmitters (like dopamine and serotonin) in your animal’s nervous system.
SERENITY FROM L-THEANINE
The inclusion of L-theanine — a potent amino acid proven effective for alleviating anxiety-like symptoms and promoting serenity in both humans and animals — further enhances the calming prowess of Peaceful Pet.
VITAMIN B6 DUO
Finally, Peaceful Pet incorporates two bioactive forms of vitamin B6, crucial for the delicate balancing of neurotransmitters and reducing anxiety and stress.
If all this sounds like so much science-speak to you, then let the “proof be in the pooching”. With all-natural ingredients, Peaceful Pet is safe to try out on your own pup. Because no animal should have to live in a constant state of stress and anxiety. And you don’t need to live in a home filled with the remnants of their anxious actions. Serenity and balance are yours, and your dog’s, for the taking.
