The bangs start weeks before November 5th. Shaking, hiding, panting, pacing. Here is why more owners are trying a natural soft chew this year instead of riding it out.

1. It Calms Without Sedating
No drowsy dog, no vet trip. A natural soft chew that supports a calm response, so your dog is still your dog, just less frightened.
Under stress, a dog’s brain can run short of the things that help it settle. NutriPaw Calming Treats pair L-tryptophan, a precursor to serotonin, with chamomile and passion flower. There is no sedation, so you get a dog who can lie down, not a dog who is out cold.
- ✓Shaking & trembling
- ✓Climbing into your lap
- ✓Panting & pacing
- ✓Hiding from the bangs
- ✓Refusing to go out the next morning
2. A Tasty Chew, Not a Tablet
Soft, with a tasty meaty flavour dogs love, so most take it as a treat.
Most dogs show improvement with consistent daily use over 4 to 6 weeks, so starting before fireworks season gives it time to build. On the night itself, give the serving for your dog’s weight about 45 minutes before the first bang. It is safe to combine with other NutriPaw supplements and suitable for dogs over 12 weeks.
Given as a treat, not a tablet
Settled, not sedated
