Summertime months are full of excitement and parties and also stress for your beloved pets. Fireworks and thunderstorms are the two most common stressors for high-anxiety proned dogs and cats during the summer months. Though there is no one solution for all pets, there are supplements and over the counter products that have research to show they may help ease your pet’s fear and axiety without any side effects.
