Valerian helps to support the natural relaxant pathways within the nervous system, without affecting muscles. It doesn't make pets dopey or sleepy - in fact it is widely used for agility and show dogs when they need to be alert and focussed, but calm. The concentrated herbal extracts used in this liquid ensure that within just 30 minutes a noticeable change in behaviour occurs without causing drowsiness and the effects are quite short lived.

What can Valerian Compound be used for? Phobias and nervous disorders can be really hard to deal with - both for pets and from their owners' perspectives.

Valerian Compound can be used for: fireworks thunderstorms travelling showing going into kennels visiting the vets Valerian Compound acts quickly, helping you and your pet get through these events stress-free. It can also be used to restore calm in hyperactive pets. Top Tip: Try putting a few drops on a cloth on your pet's bed to help them relax, cats especially love this. Will it sedate my dog? They are not sedatives, in fact these are widely used for performance dogs such as agility and show dogs when they need to be alert and focussed. The herbs are nervines, that means they help to naturally relax the nervous system which reduces anxiety yet does not sedate muscles. Can I use the tablets and liquid together? Scullcap \u0026amp; Valerian used daily provides better coverage and is ideal to start using in the lead up to fireworks night so they are already nice and relaxed before the scary noises start. Valerian Compound is quicker-acting and is perfect to use orally as a top-up and for unpredicted events such as neighbours having a fireworks display or a thunder storm. It is ideal to put a few drops on a cloth on their bed to help them relax, cats love this especially. When do I need to start giving the products? The more severe the phobia, the earlier you should start, up to a month in some cases. For moderate phobias, start around 10 days before the predicted worst night. However, even if you only start the day or so before your dog will still benefit. What dosage\/administration should I use? Valerian Compound the administration is 1\/4 tsp for small dogs and cats, 1\/2 tsp for medium dogs, 1tsp for large dogs and 1.5tsp for Giant breeds. May be given as required, it is not recommended that more than two administrations of the stated amount are given in a 24 hours period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Woody's Natural Treats","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57129910567293,"sku":"PRODUCT-694","price":12.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/2966\/8221\/files\/812-1856-0-450-wide_ae24702d-440a-4ab8-8bd5-a71e84cf2e22.png?v=1775042122"},{"product_id":"buddycare-dog-deodorising-spray-calming-lavender-200ml-6-76-fl-oz","title":"Buddycare Dog Deodorising Spray - Calming Lavender - 200ml \/ 6.76 fl oz","description":"\nSay goodbye to unpleasant odours and hello to fresh smelling, shiny coats!
