Review: Truly calms anxiety rather than causing (or attempting to cause) sleepiness - We have a 3 year old mixed breed rescue who is very high energy and suffers from separation anxiety and is just generally anxious. I have to give her sedatives before taking her to the vet, and she still requires at least 2 vet techs to hold her for the doctor. I've tried several calming treats as well as a thundershirt and none had any obvious effect on her. We did have the pheremone plug in for a while and I thought it MIGHT have helped a little, but it was barely perceptible. These are the first calming product that really seems to work on her. Don't get me wrong, she doesn't get SUPER chill, but she is markedly more chill than normal. When family members come home she normally goes bonkers, jumping all over them, squeal-whining, getting in their faces trying to give them kisses. She goes especially nuts over my husband coming home from work. The first day I gave her these, she still greeted him excitedly at the door, but there was hardly any jumping. She circled him, wagging her tail with her usual vigor and still whined a little, but it was such an improvement. What I really like is that she just seems like she's more relaxed the same way she does after a good long romp with other dogs at the dog park or doggy day care, or a strenuous hike somewhere with lots of new smells. She doesn't have a bunch of nervous energy, but she doesn't seem groggy or sleepy like she does when given sedatives. It seems to genuinely act as an anti-anxiety treatment, not just something to dope her up and make her sleepy like treats with melatonin or tryptophan or actual prescription sedatives are meant to do. I think that's why those things don't work well for her, they might make her sleepy, but her mind is still racing. That probably feels even worse, imagine feeling scared that something bad is going to happen, on edge and hypervigilant, but also struggling to keep your eyes open. No wonder she still freaks out at the vet. One other thing I want to mention is that she has a very sensitive stomach, she gets loose stools very easily, has to be on a specific food and I also add fiber to her daily meals. I got the peanut butter flavor because she can't have chicken and I know she handles real peanut butter fine. She's had no changes in her potty habits since starting these, and I generally give her the full dose for her weight most days. (2 treats per day, she weighs around 60lbs.) If your pup is jumpy and wound up all the time, I would definitely recommend giving these a try. I hope that with regular use, as she experiences her days without so much anxiety, she will come to feel less nervous in general without the supplement. But if I have to keep her on these long term, I prefer that over having to put her on prescription meds. Review: A true life saver!! - One of my dogs has horrible anxiety to fireworks & thunder and I've tried several OTC options before stumbling on these... which are by far the best! They kick in very quickly and truly take the edge off. She normally shakes/trembles and hides and 15-20 minutes after eating 2 of these she's laying on the couch(under her blanket) sleeping. Don't get me wrong, she's not perfectly content like my big guy who will walk through the neighborhood on the 4th of July, but she's comfortable. She happily takes them like she knows they are her happy pills. I've even given them to my neighbor for her JRT to try and now she buys them. I can't recommend them enough to anyone who has a dog that suffers with storm or firework phobias. Make sure to keep the bag sealed or they dry out. Midge is a 65lb Pittie mix and we give her 2 at the first sign of a big storm rolling in or when fireworks start. 🐾β™₯️ ## Features - Clinically Tested Calming Ssupport: These calming chews for dogs are clinically tested to help manage occasional stress and support balanced behavior during thunderstorms, fireworks, travel, vet visits, grooming, and changes in routine. - Fast-Acting Stress Relief Support: Formulated to work within 30 minutes and last up to 4 hours, this calming supplement for dogs delivers reliable support before car rides, flights, training sessions, guests at home, or temporary separation. - Science-Backed Calming Ingredients: Made with Colostrum Calming Complex, L-Theanine, and Thiamine, these soft chews for dogs help support relaxation and normal nervous system function while helping maintain calm, composed behavior. - Calm Without Drowsiness: This non-drowsy dog calming aid helps promote relaxation without grogginess or personality changes, making it ideal for daily support or as-needed use during occasional stressful situations. - For Dogs of All Breeds & Sizes: Designed for small, medium, and large dogs, these calming treats for dogs fit easily into everyday wellness routines for adult and senior dogs needing extra support during environmental or lifestyle changes. - Ideal for Travel, Storms & Training: Use before thunderstorms, fireworks, road trips, vet appointments, grooming visits, new environments, or training sessions to help support calm behavior when your dog needs extra reassurance. - Veterinarian Formulated & NASC Certified: Developed by veterinarians and certified by the National Animal Supplement Council, Calm & Confident is third-party tested for quality, safety, and ingredient integrity you can trust. - Same Trusted formula, Fresh new Look: Formerly known as Composure, Calm & Confident delivers the same clinically tested formula trusted by pet parents and professionals for decades, now with refreshed VetriScience packaging. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0D6ZF6XNL | | Best Sellers Rank | #21,251 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #165 in Dog Relaxants | | Brand | VETRISCIENCE | | Brand Name | VETRISCIENCE | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 126 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Large, Medium, Small | | Flavor | Peanut Butter | | Included Components | Composure Peanut Butter 60 Count | | Item Form | Chew | | Item Type Name | Dog Calming Chew | | Manufacturer | FoodScience, LLC | | Manufacturer Part Number | 090053J.060 | | Model Number | 090053J.090 | | Pet Type | Dog | | Product Benefits | Calming Support | | Specific Uses For Product | Behavior, Indoor, Outdoor | | Target Species | Dog | | UPC | 026664018472 | | Unit Count | 60.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** VETRISCIENCE - **Dog Breed Size:** Large, Medium, Small - **Flavor:** Peanut Butter - **Item Form:** Chew - **Product Benefits:** Calming Support ## Images ![Clinically Tested Composure Calm & Confident Chews for Dogs – Helps Manage Occasional Stress & Supports Balanced Behavior, Non-Drowsy Soft Chews with L-Theanine, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WWeoGdpBL.jpg) ![Clinically Tested Composure Calm & Confident Chews for Dogs – Helps Manage Occasional Stress & Supports Balanced Behavior, Non-Drowsy Soft Chews with L-Theanine, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qeG23HpoL.jpg) ![Clinically Tested Composure Calm & Confident Chews for Dogs – Helps Manage Occasional Stress & Supports Balanced Behavior, Non-Drowsy Soft Chews with L-Theanine, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xcHtecf7L.jpg) ![Clinically Tested Composure Calm & Confident Chews for Dogs – Helps Manage Occasional Stress & Supports Balanced Behavior, Non-Drowsy Soft Chews with L-Theanine, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jOJ31WNyL.jpg) ![Clinically Tested Composure Calm & Confident Chews for Dogs – Helps Manage Occasional Stress & Supports Balanced Behavior, Non-Drowsy Soft Chews with L-Theanine, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rNJ+QhtoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Truly calms anxiety rather than causing (or attempting to cause) sleepiness *by J***N on April 12, 2025* We have a 3 year old mixed breed rescue who is very high energy and suffers from separation anxiety and is just generally anxious.

She doesn’t have a sensitive stomach and was totally fine after that, so I worry it was these. They also smell really bad. ## Frequently Bought Together - VetriScience Calm & Confident Chews, Composure Clinically Tested Anxiety and Calming Chews for Dogs, Reduce Stress, Ideal for Thunderstorms, Fireworks and Travel, Peanut Butter, 60 Count - Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Supplements Calming Care - Calming Dog Supplements - 30 ct.
