The Thundershirt is a stretchy, vest-like shirt for dogs that places a soothing and steady pressure which has a calming effect. Your dog or cat can experience the calming effect of this type of pressure with the Thundershirt, to relieve anxiety without medication.
The Thundershirt can be used to help with:
•Fear of thunder/fireworks
•Separation anxiety
•Travel anxiety
•Crate training
•Problem barking
•Hyperactivity
•Leash pulling
•Epilepsy and seizure
•And more!
The Thundershirt company has partnered with the Petfinder Foundataion to make it possible for individuals to donate a Thundershirt at a discounted price to an animal shelter of their choice! As explained on the Petfinder Foundation web site, “The Thundershirt alleviates stress symptoms in over 80% of the dogs who use it. When used at a shelter, the Thundershirt can help dogs relax, reduce the behavioral issues associated with stress and make the dog more adoptable. The Thundershirt then follows the dog to her new home, providing her with a soothing pressure that should help to reduce her anxiety and improve the adoption experience for both dog and owner.”
We wish to thank our kind friends who have donated Thundershirts to Paws and Claws Society!
