Then your dog may be experiencing anxiety which can be triggered by loud noises, stress, grief, moving, separation or fears.

There are many all natural herbs that we have found to help with calming an anxious and nervous dog. Here are a few safe, all natural, anti-anxiety herb remedies that may offer up some stress relief. These herbs can be found at most natural health food stores.

1. Chamomile. Give  your dog chamomile tea, or mix chamomile in with their food.  Chamomile will calm your stressed & anxious dog and act as a mild sedative.

2. Oats. Oats are not only healthy for your dog but a great natural and safe remedy to help calm your pup.  Mix fully cooked oats with your dog's food.

3. Lavender. The scent of lavender works wonder to sooth and calm a anxious dog. Put lavender essential oil on a cotton ball or cloth and put it in an area where your dog is frequently, but out of paws reach.

4.  Bach Rescue Remedy. A blend of herbs,  is a safe, gentle, all-natural form of healing that can reduce your pet's stress.

5. Valerian. Safe herb that you can use to calm dogs who have trouble with extreme excitability, anxiety and tension. You can purchase Valerian in tinctures, teas and capsules.

Getting your fussy dog to cooperate and swallow his medicine can be quite a challenge and often unpleasant for both you and your dog. Sometimes all its take to get your dog to open wide and swallow is an enticing incentive like a good treat. Here are a few simple easy tips to help make medicating your pup a breeze.

1. Mix the dogs medication with his food. This trick works very well if the medicine is liquid.  Be sure to supervise the dog so that you know the pill was eaten & not spit up. You can also add some chicken broth to your dogs meal to disguise the pill taste.

2. Tilt dogs head to swallow. If the dog medication is a pill or capsule place the medication on the very back of your dog's tongue. Gently open your mouth, close the dog's muzzle and hold it closed with one hand. Tilt the dog's head back (so the muzzle is elevated) and softly stroke the throat. This should invoke the swallowing reflex. Look inside the mouth after-wards though to make sure the dog medication went down.

3. Hide pill in food or treat. Put the dog medication in some cheese or better yet peanut butter. Place the peanut butter on the inside roof of the dog's mouth. Make sure your dog eat and swallows the peanut butter & pill.

4. Praise & reward good behavior with a treat. Offer your dog a treat immediately after putting the pill in his mouth. This will help them positively associate pill taking with receiving a rewarding treat.

5. Crush the pill. Ask your vet if you are allowed to crush the pill and mix it with peanut butter or your dogs favorite food or snake time treat like low fat cottage cheese.

6. Still having troubles? Call for reinforcement of a friend, family or seek the help of a well trained vet to help you administer your dogs medication.

Always double check with your vet to make sure your pets specific medication is suppose to be taken with or without food, follow your vets instructions carefully.

We are so excited to offer The Anxiety Wrap offers a holistic approach to calm your dog when it is stressed by thunderstorms, fireworks, car sickness or vet visits. Repeated use can aid in ending shyness and nervousness, destructive chewing, grooming issues, jumping and help release stress and tension in your dog. The Anxiety Wrap uses Maintained Pressure and Acupressure to relieve stress and end/lessen fears and anxieties in dogs.

It's the only patented pressure wrap in the industry and comes with 100% satisfaction guarantee and free, on-line support.

The Anxiety Wrap Is Designed To:

- Target acupressure points on the dog's body to aid in the calming effect from the light pressure of the garment.
- Hit sensitive pressure points on the back legs with the "butt straps" to - Help calm and release tension.
- Provide minimal disruption/discomfort to the dog while providing just the right amount of pressure to affect the nervous system.
- Allow the dog to freely urinate and defecate.
- Vary the amount of pressure through various elastic bands so each Anxiety Wrap can be customized to meet each and every dog's individual needs.
- Allow the "butt straps" to be used in a variety of ways - crisscrossing them, using only one strap, holding the tail down, etc. - to vary the effect.

This is a great way to ease anxiety and stress, while not having to medicate your pooch.

Summer not only marks the time for outdoor fun but heat waves which can be hazardous to your dogs health. Here are some simple summer time dog safety tips to beat the heat and stay cool!

1. Exercise your dog early in the morning or late at night. With the heat dogs run the risk of getting hear exhaustion and heat stroke so exercising or walking your dog in the cooler parts of the day is key. Avoid strenuous excercise with your dog when it very hot outdoors.

2. Use doggie boots. Keep in mind that when the mercury rises this will cause the pavements & surfaces like asphalt & cement to heat up. Before taking your dog for a walk check the surfaces by hand to see if you can stand it. Better yet have your dog wear booties to prevent their paws from becoming burned.

3. Watch for signs of dehydration. Dogs can't sweat, they cool off by panting. Some signs your dog is overheating is excessive drooling, lethargy, bloodshot eyes and paleness. You can also do a dehydration skin test by lifting a piece of your dogs skin. If its takes longer for the skin to fall back into place then this can be a sign of dehydration.

4. Keep your dog hydrated! Darker coat & overweight weight dogs run a higher risk of dehydration. Always carry enough water & collapsible bowl when going on a short or long walk and hike with your dog.

5. Cool your dog down. You can cool your dog down with a kiddie pool under a shady tree, laying down a wet towel for your dog to lie on, turning on the sprinklers or gently spritzing your dog. You can be creative with a make shift air conditioner by setting up a fan in front of a pan of ice.

6. Bottoms up! Dogs cool from the bottom up so spritz your dogs paws and stomach, not just the top of the dog. You can also place a wet towel on the bottom of your dog.

7. Check the weather. Keep an eye on pet weather alerts during the summer and heed the warnings to have your pet chill out indoors.

8. Never leave your dog in a parked car. Cars (even when shaded) retains more heat and can heat up very quickly leading to heat stroke & possible death.

9. Doggy paddle in the pool! Cool down with your dog by taking a dip in the swimming pool. Never push or force your dog into the pool it may only traumatize him, instead gently coax your dog in and hold on to him until he is comfortable in the water.
