win4profit Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We bought a thunder shirt for Slick a few weeks ago and so far it does seem to be helping. My question is can I leave it on him while I am at work? We are expecting storms off and on all day. I worry because he gets really warm.

Sambuca Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I wouldn't if he gets warm because you won't be there to remove it if he gets too hot. Otherwise I don't think it would be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTRAWLD Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I wonder if by leaving it on all day, if that would lessen the working impact of the shirt the next time you need to use it? I have one for Ryder and it doesn't work for him, but you never know if it would provide a lot of comfort during the storms when you aren't home. Good luck.

phall Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I use a Thundershirt on my girl, Joey, and it doesn't take away the anxiousness or fear, but it does take the edge off a bit - enough that I think it's worth using it. I leave it on Joey for as long as storms are predicted, but if it's hot I make sure to keep the AC on. If that's not possible I wouldn't leave it on your grey if you're not home. Good luck.

GreyTzu Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I have left the TS's on if it was still storming and I needed to leave for work and it would be several hours before Kevin got home. Our A/C is set at 77. I do not put the TS's on just because there might be a storm coming. Our house is secure and our dogs have their comforting behavior. Quote Wendy and The Whole Wherd.
