Nervous bitch

18 13:29:27

Question
I have a brother & sister Springer Spaniel cross Labrador 5year olds. The bitch is SOMETIMES VERY nervous of the sound of planes going over.  The planes are VERY high up but because we live in a VERY quiet Welsh valley the planes can sometimes sound quiet loud.  I said she's sometimes nervous because sometimes she doesn't take any notice, sometimes it's made worse if her brother (who's not scared of them) barks at something.  I have been giving her the nosode AAA for several weeks and it has calmed her a bit but I was wondering if the CD's I've seen advertised would be of any help?  She nearly died of slug pellet poisoning when she was young so theres a good chance this has caused damage to her nervous system so she is slightly nervous of other things but nothing like the noises from the sky.
I do hope you can offer some advice.

Answer
Hi Mags

I've heard good things and results with the cd's and there are other great calming tools available, including plug ins that release pheromones. These work with great results.

You can also supplement her with products like B Calm, Bach's Rescue Remedies or vitamin B. All will help steady her nerves.

Good luck
