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 XL model is designed for dogs between 29 and 50 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.
