Remolacha Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I put all my dogs on FF as soon as I get them (they've all been 6 or older) (except Fletcher!) and even Fletcher with his IBD did not have any stomach problems. I recently started Sallie on their Stress Free Calmplex to see if would help. She is afraid of storms, fireworks, and recently, high winds. It isn't a cure-all, but it has helped. I really only need to drug her during the 4th of July (two large fireworks displays very near me). They also get Joint Health. Molly has recently started having some back end weakness, so I think I am going to switch to the advanced formula. I already have to break them in half for the Princess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4My2Greys Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I've tried different joint formulas that contained both chondroitin and glucosamine that upset his stomach and caused him to stop eating. Not sure which the culprit was, but I'm going to give the FFs a try and hope for a good outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have to break them in half for the Princess So Calmplex can be given as needed? I was thinking of trying this for Seamus during t'storm season and wasn't sure how to administer it. Every day? Seamus is a terribly reliable weather forecaster and although he has improved tremendously (less hiding out in his bathroom cave, etc.), I wonder if Calmplex might be worth a try.

tyguy7760 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Geez if I start giving this to Piper half of her food is going to be supplements. She already gets yogurt twice a day, pumpkin once a day or every other day, 4 fish oil capsules a day and 3 mg of meletonin a day.

I don't know how effective it would be given as needed. Most supplements like this need to build up in the system, and I definitely saw an improvement over time. I give her two a day, one in the morning and one at night, she is 60 lbs. If there is a bad storm, or fireworks at the baseball park, I give her a melatonin tablet as well. I give that as needed, but the melatonin alone wasn't enough before I started using the Calmplex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4My2Greys Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 My order arrived today. I'm anxious for them to get started on them with their evening meal. Nadir will get just FFs and Chase will get FF and Joint Health. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
