People think I'm crazy when I tell them my dog likes classical music. Especially at night. I'm going to direct them to this video next time

I will definately use the extra tip of gently saying "It's ok, Poodle" whilst applying acupressure to my Great Dane🙂

My dog always listened to music to morning and night . When i live always live the radio 📻

I give CBD to my African Grey and it’s made such a huge difference in his anxiety. He hates it when I’m working and not in the room with him. I have to call patients and he can’t be in the room with me because he talks the whole time 😂, but if he’s in the other room he freaks out. I was afraid he was going to hurt himself but the CBD has taken care of that.

My dogs and cats love Christmas and Santa Paws, music, gifts. I am blessed.

Through A Dog's Ear is great music for dog relaxation.

My 80 lb pitbull does this weirdo thing when the window is opened in the summer & the breeze makes the sheers lift. He will go stand under the sheers and its like hes in a trance. He moves slowly and will just stare at nothing & some drool. Its the craziest thing but i think its how he calms himself like self soothing idk

Blessings! You have inspired me to take a certification in animal naturapathy. Since using oregano oil with colloidal silver, no needs for antibiotics for me nor my babies. Am also using chanca piedra for my cat whe gets urinary crystals. So thank you

[baublesanddolls]

Thanks for all your help. I’m so glad I found your channel. I have a Tula too, although she’s only four. Poodles are a wonderful breed. 💖

[L.Spencer]

I appreciate all your wonderful informative videos. Thank you for helping us heal our pets holistically. God bless, and may the new year bring you health, wealth, and happiness always. Happy New Year, and thank you!

Dr. Andrew you look like a warm eskimo in the swaddle example! Love the example! Anxiety going in the car for some dogs is so terrible. Thanks.

[flickeringcandle]

I wish you could have included more acupressure points because from you I know they do work. I use the base of the skull and under the nose points when I see a seizure coming on my dog and/or during her seizure to shorten it.

[christym.]

Thank you Dr. Jones! I appreciate all of your suggestions for my little Shih Tzu who often gets anxiety.

[conniekline]

Thank you doctor for some practical and natural aids for our dogs anxiety.

Excellent suggestions! Thank you for generously sharing your vet expertise and various at-home remedies here! Big bomb type and other fireworks for weeks before New Years in HI. I've tried desensitization training and it has helped, but today I could see my aussie golden mix needed something more to calm him down. I tried some of your recommendations and he is already more calm! Phew! Happy New Year and may God bless you!
