Zesty Paws Calming Chews for Dogs - for Everyday Stress, Relaxation, Composure, and Separation Peanut Butter 50 Count

The flavor seems to be satisfactory and the calming helps anxiety but still ready to play.

EDIT: After my review, the seller offered me a full refund. For the amazing customer service alone and prompt response, I am upgrading my review from two stars to five. It is hard to find honest companies these day who support integrity as this company does. I do hope to try other products from them in the future. :-) These have no effect on either of my dogs.

Short Version: Pup loves the taste, it works decently well. We have a 20 pound Shiba almost a year old. Based on her weight the recommended does is one treat, which has very little noticeable difference. It caaan make her more calm but she can still have big spurts of energy or craziness. Could be that her puppy excitement overpowers the treat. My brother come over once after we had given her a treat, and she went crazy, peeing on the floor from excitement. We tried two treats, monitored her carefully just in case and she was fine, but two treats is definitely much more effective. She is much calmer, more likely to nap too. She loves the taste of it too. Also the treat is pretty big but it does fit inside even a puppy sized Kong toy which was a plus for us.

My roommates dog has been on these for a week with zero effect. They are either stale old or just defective cause they crumble in my fingers into dust making dosing impossible to follow. They provide none of their promises, seem to taste good to her but effective? No way.

***Edited After leaving this review, the seller contacted me and gave me a full refund. Their customer support is excellent and I appreciate that they stand behind their product. **** Our 6yo Australian Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix started having aggression issues with our other, elderly dog. She would become anxious with visitors or deliveries. We tried these chews in hopes it would provide a calming influence to help take the edge off her anxiety. We used them daily for 2 weeks and saw no improvement. We have her 2 treats at a time according to the directions and her weight. We took her to the vet today and both dogs are healthy. The vet gave us an Rx to help with the aggression/anxiety. I wish these had worked instead and I hadn't wasted the money. The only positive is that she enjoyed the taste and happily ate them.

I have 2 dogs that are terrified of fireworks. I was skeptical at first but I thought I would give this product a shot. I am so glad that I did. It worked wonders on our elderly dachshund. One chew and he went right to sleep; he slept through all the loud fireworks. I can’t tell you the relief I felt knowing that my poor doggie was finally not terrified and hiding behind the toilet. He would get so scared he would throw up. I gave 3 chews to our golden retriever… although he didn’t fall asleep, he was definitely not as stressed out. It took the edge off his anxiety and he was more manageable than he usually is. I am a satisfied customer and I would recommend 100%.

I give my dog 2 every morning, she doesn't remain calm, but she's less hyper.

Didn’t work for my dog, made her throw up.
