PetCalm anxiety and stress in pets

Anxiety in Pets

Although certain animals do have a more nervous temperament than others, traumatic events or exposure to particular stressors can make even a normally calm animal, stressed and perturbed.

Fireworks, a trip to the vet, thunderstorms, small children, an abusive situation, change of owner, hair dryers, change of house, the addition of another pet -- these are just a few of the situations that can cause heightened levels of anxiety in your pet.

Many pets are also exposed to a variety of day-to-day stresses. They live essentially on fast food (with not much nutritional value) and are often left alone for hours at a time, frequently in fairly confined environments.

These factors can contribute to high levels of stress and anxiety. In addition, pets are very attuned to their owner's stress levels. If you are anxious and stressed, this will impact your pet. This can be a particular problem when taking part in competitive events like pet shows and competitions. When there is stress or trauma at home (e.g. during times of conflict, divorce or domestic stress) PetCalm can help your pet cope without compromising health.

What else can I do to help my pet?

• Ensure your pet is eating a balanced high quality diet with plenty of raw and unprocessed food and fresh water. A healthy diet affects brain functioning and memory powers.
  
• Regular daily exercise is essential to help keep your pet healthy and fit, as well as in peak mental health. Bored, frustrated animals will not function well mentally!
  
• Daily routine is important! Do not pamper your pet at home and allow bad behavior and then expect total obedience during competitive events. Establish who is boss at all times!
  
• PetAlive Skin and Coat Tonic will help to keep your pet's coat healthy and shining!
  
• When competing in shows, use PetCalm just before the event to keep your pet calm and stress free.
  
• Use Immunity and Liver Support capsules to boost your pet's immune functioning and resistance against infectious illnesses often picked up at shows and training classes
  
• Work on your own stress levels so that they don't have a negative impact on your pet.

PetCalm contains the following 100% herbal and homeopathic ingredients:

Scutellaria laterifolia (Scullcap) is one of the best known herbs for treating anxiety and other nervous disorders. Scullcap may be used for situational anxiety linked to a stressful event (e.g. a trip to the vet or a competitive event) or for more chronic nervous conditions. Providing tonic benefits for the entire nervous system, it helps to soothe and calm pets while also reducing excitability.

Passiflora incarnata is a tropical herb which has been used since the 19th century for nervous conditions and is often called a 'natural tranquilizer'. Modern research supports traditional usage and clinical trials have demonstrated the relaxing and anti-anxiety effects of Passiflora, which is often recommended to treat anxiety and reduce tension. Medical analysis has shown that Passiflora contains flavonoids which are responsible for its calming and anti-anxiety effects.

Kalium phosphate (Kali. phos.) (C6) is a biochemic tissue salt with many therapeutic benefits. It is extremely useful for the relief of anxiety and emotional tension and is of great help to pets with nervous dispositions who are sensitive to stress or change of any sort.
