Please keep your fur kids safe during fireworks. More pets go missing during July 4th festivities than any other time of year :(. In the past I've used Rescue ...Remedy to calm my dog during the fireworks, but I'm finding that it isn't effective enough as she gets older and more sensitive, so I asked my veterinarian and she suggested melatonin. Melatonin relaxed Isabelle a lot during the last fireworks blowout here in L.A., but she seemed a bit groggy the next morning, so I'm going to try the amino acid, L-Theanine. Vets have been using L-Theanine with great success for anxious pets. L-Theanine is wonderful for general anxiety, separation anxiety, and loud noises, like thunderstorms and fireworks. It has also been known to help dogs with aggression towards strangers, other dogs, and children. L- theanine is an amino acid (Suntheanine is the purest and only source of synthetic L-theanine that I recommend and use). I take it myself and it is wonderful for mild anxiety and stress. Suntheanine has no known drug interactions, side effects or any limit of duration of administration. As opposed to some of the other relaxation promoting ingredients on the market, Suntheanine promotes relaxation safely, without causing drowsiness. DOSAGE: L-Theanine is effective at 50-200 mg and its positive effects are exhibited within 30-40 minutes of consumption. The KEY is to give L-Theanine BEFORE your pet's agitation from stressful situations starts to peak. That means giving it to your dog or cat about 30 minutes before the first firework goes off or before the storm begins to rumble! CAUTIONS: Some brands of Melatonin and L-theanine contain xylitol, which is very toxic to dogs and cats and can be deadly!
