Valerian Root for Dogs natures sunhine ; pet nurse marie natures sunsine valerian root;

Question
Good Morning,
I have read a lot of information stating that Valerian Root is safe for dogs.  Can you tell me what dosage you recommend for a dog weighing 60 pounds?  I am about to take them on a long trip and I think it would be helpful for one of them while I groom her.  Thank you very much.  I look forward to hearing from you.  I appreciate your time!! Deb
