Dog Anxiety Tips

If you're traveling with your dog, it's important to take some time to plan ahead and make sure you have everything you need to keep them happy and healthy. With a little bit of preparation, it can be an easy-going adventure for you and your canine companion.

Anxiety in dogs can present itself in different forms and may cause several health problems. This is why Souroubea-Platanus based solutions have emerged as scientifically proven dog anti-anxiety medications to reduce the stressor and damages of anxiety in this species.

A novel botanical dietary supplement containing Souroubea spp. vine and Platanus spp. Bark, was tested as a canine anxiolytic for thunderstorm noise-induced stress.

In the study, 16 dogs were given either a placebo or the formulation at five times the intended dose for 28 days.  The dogs were monitored for adverse effects. 

The results of the study concluded that there were no clinically significant adverse effects noted though clinical observation, physical examination, bloodwork, and urinalysis evaluation. 

Even today, at 84 years old, Dr. Tony Durst is still carrying out research at the University of Ottawa partly in the field of natural products from Costa Rica. His wife, Mary, who retired from a career in education supports him, including his work in Costa Rica.  

Taking some preventive measures and having a well-thought-out plan this summer will pay off in the long run– and your dog will thank you for it!
