Does your pet tolerate vet visits poorly? Will he be derailed by a storm, fireworks or a journey by means of transport? The calming vest from the ThunderShirt brand works similarly to a swaddle for children. It exerts gentle constant pressure on the animal's body, bringing calm and a sense of security. You can also use the vest during training for better results. Or when the dog stays home alone. The model in size L is designed for dogs between 18 and 29 kg.
Main features:
- soothes and gives a feeling of security
- Reduces exaggerated reactions from the dog (excessive barking and others)
- Use during stressful situations
Use
Before you start using the soothing vest for dogs, let your pet familiarize themselves with it and sniff it. Reward him with a treat. Once it gets used to it outside its body, put it on according to the following instructions. The first time is only 5 to 10 minutes to check the animal's reaction.
How to put on a calming vest:
- Place the vest on the animal's back and fasten the straps around the neck. Do not fasten too tightly, two human fingers should fit between the strap and the body.
- Continue by attaching the belt around your chest.
- Adjust the upper part of the belt downwards so that it fits snugly against the body. Again, make sure that it is not fastened too tightly.
