Finally, a Natural Solution to your Dog's Separation Anxiety, Fear of Loud Noises, and Travel. Solve the symptoms of anxety naturally with the Thundershirt.

The Thundershirt is a proven method that improves symptoms of anxiety in pets. With its patented design, the Thundershirt uses gentle hugging to calm your dog, applying constant pressure that helps calm most dogs if they are anxious, fearful or overexcited, which leads to:

• Shaking
• Hiding or bolting
• Barking and Panting
• Licking and chewing
• Urinating and defecating indoors.

And thousands of veterinarians and trainers agree.

How does the Thundershirt work?

Experts believe that pressure has a calming effect on the nervous system, possibly by releasing a calming hormone like endorphins. Using pressure to relieve anxiety in people and animals has been a common practice for years. For example: parents use swaddling to calm and sooth an inconsolable infant. Some experts believe that swaddling mimics the warmth and pressure babies experience in the womb. But whatever the reason, there is no denying its success.

ThunderShirt helps families, vets and trainers by increasing your pet's self-awareness, and providing comfort and security while alleviating stress and separation anxiety.

Plus, the ThunderShirt is Stylish and keeps your pooch warm. It is:

• Made from a lightweight, breathable and durable fabric
• Fully adjustable for a snug, comfortable fit
• Easy to put on and take off
• Machine washable for easy cleaning

How long does the calming effect of the thundershirt last?

The ThunderShirt applies pressure to the dog's torso and this pressure has a calming effect on the dog. You need to take into account many factors e.g what is the dog scared of thunderstorms, fireworks, home alone, loud noises & how long the ThunderShirt is on the dog.

The ThunderShirt is safe to be used for extended periods of time depending on the issue e.g separation anxiety. If the ThunderShirt is being used for extended periods of time ensure it is removed at least twice a day.
