Calm Anxiety Naturally

Posted: 9/7/2010

You can keep your pet happy even in stressful times.

(NAPSI)-Protecting your pet from feeling "under the weather" may have a surprising solution.

For many animals, the noise of thunderstorms and other common weather sounds can be a significant source of anxiety. Dogs may howl, cower, or chew through things. Sometimes, a stressed animal can even express fear with destructive behavior and become aggressive.

Fortunately, reports Dr. Margo Roman, DVM, pet owners can treat their animal's anxiety--whether it's caused by noise, separation, new surroundings, vet visits or other factors--naturally.

A variation of an original blend of five flower remedies formulated more than 70 years ago, Rescue Remedy Pet is available alcohol-free for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, birds, horses and rabbits.

It comes in a dropper format, so it's easy to administer. You can find it at Whole Foods nationally and select natural products and pet retail locations. It is also available online at www.rescueremedy.com/pets.
