Description
When pets can’t adapt to stress, it can lead to hyperactivity, abnormal urine marking, excessive scratching, trembling, pacing, excessive panting and destructive or aggressive behavior. The ingredients in Calm & Confident work synergistically to support relaxation without changing your dog’s personality or energy levels. The Colostrum Calming Complex™ Biopeptide Blend supports stress reduction and cognitive function; L-Theanine helps the body produce other amino acids to bring specific neurotransmitters back into balance; and B vitamins (thiamine) affect the central nervous system to help calm anxious animals.
Our ingredients are well researched and recognized for their natural ability to support balanced behavior. When combined in our formula, they provide a calming effect to support a relaxed state without causing drowsiness or impaired motor skills. Calm & Confident is easily administered in a tasty chicken liver flavored soft chew and can be used as a daily supplement or, as needed in stressful situations.
Now available in a tasty peanut butter-flavored bite-sized chew that your dog will love.

My dog was attacked by another dog when she was a year old. She has beeen super nervous of other dogs ever which makes dog walks stressful for all of us. I have tried several calming supplements as well as behavioural training, to no avail. Then I did some research and came across the composure treats so I thought, why not try something new. Well they have worked! She's been having them for approximately 4 weeks and the change in her is hard to believe. Only today, another dog walked past while I was sitting on a bench and it was about 3 feet away and she did not bat an eyelid. Normally she'd be lunging, growling and barking with her hackles up. I almost have to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming! She is still her usual happy self in non anxiety provoking situations. Still full of energy and tail wagging joy, so they don't sedate her. They just seem to switch off her fight or flight response to other dogs. This is life changing for all of us. Thank you Vetriscience! You have a customer for life.
I would definitely buy this product again.

We have had some schedule changes that were making it hard for my younger dog to settle at night. Composure has helped ease her into bedtime a lot. We're no longer barking for 15 minutes at night. And she and my older dog love the bacon flavor.
Takes the edge off!

I appreciate the conscientious development of this product, I don't hesitate to use & recommend it in my veterinary office, but immediately noticed the unfortunate shape when I first used it for my dog. She is small so her labeled dose is 1/2 a chew, but they are triangles so dosing is inaccurate at best. Would love to see a shape only change to this product. Thanks
Buy this!

I have an anxious American bulldog and this is the first thing that has worked to calm her during thunderstorms and unseen events. Once given, it takes about 15 minutes and the excessive panting and heavy breathing stops. Previous supplements had no affect or just made her sleepy. Composure does exactly what I want it to do, calm her but keep her aware and active - not catatonic. In my opinion, it's much better than medicating her with reconcile and trazadone.
It really works!

We have medical and special needs rescues. MANY of them have issues with storms (mostly wind but some thunder). This works so much better than many rx to helping them function without zoning out or making them dull. No, its not a total knock them out pill, but the fact I can customize the doses based on how bad their reaction is likely to be, helps me a lot. No more nonstop drooling, shaking and barking every time a big wind storm blows (we live in active tornado area and get some good winds) and with preloading, we get through firework times with much more minor reactions.
10/10, a must have for foster homes and anxious pups!

I absolutely hate when we run out of composure. It's great for construction next door, fireworks, jets overhead, pre-vet visits, new fosters, etc. Composure is an absolute godsend!

We have many rescue dogs, and foster rescues. We have wonderous thunderstorms, windstorms, fireworks, and live next to a military base. I have even had a dog tear up a room with his anxiety. I hate ACE and what it does to many dogs. OTC B does not work on most dogs I have seen. This stuff is wonderful. I have only had 1 that it did not work on. Last night for example, we had a huge windstorm. Helped calm down the crew... enough to let everyone rest.
Did not work for my dogs.

It made all three of my dogs vomit. The first day of using it, and giving it to my dogs following their breakfast, one of them vomited. The second day, all three dogs vomited after their breakfast. I feed a very controlled diet so the only change was this supplement. The product also has a weird, sour smell. I've already sent feedback and have requested a refund.
Bad reaction to this product.

My 80lb Lab/Pit did not tolerate these calming tabs. I only gave her two in one day, then one the second day. She became withdrawn and her stomach made extremely loud gargling noises. She is a healthy dog and up to date with all vaccines. I will donate them to a local animal rescue shelter.

Noticed a difference in how tranquil and happier he seemed. Haven't had a storm to see if they would help him not shake. I give one morning and after dinner. He knows when it's time for one.
