It is also great for travel as it packs easily or even keeps on hand if a situation arises. Progility also supports its customers by offering a frequent buyer program with any of their 90-count supplements.

Nootie's Testimonial

I have found Nootie’s Progility Calming Aid beneficial for my dog, Jack. Jack is an overall calm and laid-back dog. However, he is terrified of thunderstorms, fireworks, and loud noises. This Calming Aid chew has proven to be the right combination of supplements that help ease his anxiety during these situations. To prepare him, I give him the suggested dosage about 20 to 30 minutes before them, even when I can anticipate it. It is just enough to allow him to rest and get through the day.

Jack is also not great on car rides since he often can’t settle and constantly pant and drool. A few years ago, we decided to take yearly road trips with the dogs. I thought this would be a disaster, but we took the chance. I packed several of the single-serve 4-count, which are perfect for travel. About 30 minutes before our departure, I gave Jack a dose. He was slightly anxious when we first started our trip but was able to settle right in and even slept through parts of the trip. We have since taken several road trips and always bring Calming Aid.

How To Reduce Dog Anxiety From Holiday Fireworks

Overall, this calming supplement is often a fan favorite leading up to any holiday where fireworks may be involved in the celebration. This calming chew can be combined with other calming options for the benefits of having a laid-back dog during festivities and other events that may cause them to shake, pant, drool, urinate, hide, or be terrified of their surroundings. Not only are these behaviors not any fun for your dog to experience, but an owner won't have to worry about their dogs' high-stress levels.
