| Depending on the sensitivity of your canine, the sounds of airplanes, thunderstorms and even doorbells can cause a pooch panic. Although we can’t always predict when a low-flying jet will pass overhead, there are plenty of resources to put us on alert when intense weather is in the forecast. This allows us time to both help relax and reward our dog with the help of chamomile.
Chamomile is a safe and natural sedative, derived from a daisy-like plant, that can be effective in calming an anxious dog. As our dogs can’t exactly sip a mug of herbal tea, some innovative companies now offer chamomile-infused chews. Sam’s Yams makes a treat that combines the nutritional benefit of natural sweet potato with the calming effects of chamomile. These antioxidant should safely satisfy your dog’s natural chewing urges while helping him to weather the storm. |

Q. Is being sprayed by a skunk harmful to dogs? Two of my dogs was sprayed but I think one was sprayed in the mouth she was drooling really bad and foaming when it happened?
A. Skunk spray can be harmful to dogs. If the dog is sprayed in the mouth or eyes. Contact a vet immediately when this happens. They will tell you for certain, even if you aren’t a client. If left untreated a dog can even develop anemia or kidney problems.
