Dorwest Valerian Compound - 30ml

Formulated to naturally help pets relax quickly in times of stress or anxiety: calm your stressed, hyperactive, anxious or frightened pet quickly with this fast-acting Valerian Compound for dogs and cats. Its pure extracts of three herbs in liquid form act within just 30 minutes, with effects lasting for up to two hours. It can be dropped straight into the mouth, given on food or sprinkled onto your pet's bedding to help make any event instantly less stressful. It's non-drowsy and even our fussy feline friends love the smell, making it super easy to use.

How does Valerian Compound work?
Valerian helps to support the natural relaxant pathways within the nervous system, without affecting muscles. It doesn't make pets dopey or sleepy - in fact it is widely used for agility and show dogs when they need to be alert and focussed, but calm.

The concentrated herbal extracts used in this liquid ensure that within just 30 minutes a noticeable change in behaviour occurs without causing drowsiness and the effects are quite short-lived. In situations that have a longer duration, Dorwest Scullcap and Valerian Tablets can be given alongside.

What can Dorwest Valerian Compound be used for?
Phobias and nervous disorders can be really hard to deal with - both for pets and from their owners' perspectives. Widely used as a treatment for noise phobias and fears associated with fireworks, thunder and gunfire, as well as for general excitability and hyperactivity, travelling, showing, going into kennels, visits to the vets, this herbal medicine is a best seller. Popular also for use in cases of territorial urine spraying in cats. Stock up with Valerian Compound and also Scullcap and Valerian Tablets well in advance of fireworks night (there's often huge demand around this time).

Top-Tip: Try putting a few drops on a cloth on your pet's bed to help them relax; cats especially love this.

The herbal ingredients are not sedatives. The herbs are nervines, meaning that they help to naturally relax the nervous system, reducing anxiety without sedating your pet's muscles.

Dorwest Scullcap & Valerian Tablets used daily provides better coverage and is ideal to start using in the lead up to Fireworks Night so your pets are already nice and relaxed before the scary noises start. Valerian Compound is quicker-acting and is perfect to use orally as a top-up and for unpredicted events such as neighbours having a fireworks display or a thunderstorm.

When do I need to start giving the products?
The more severe the phobia, the earlier you should start, up to a month in some cases. For moderate phobias, start around 10 days before the predicted worst night. Even however if you only start the day or so before, your pet will still benefit.

It is not recommended that more than two administrations of the stated amount are given in a 24 hour period. Use with caution when giving to exotic cat breeds with low body fat.
