High energy, high strung dog? Lack of exercise, stress, or discomfort in dogs can turn natural enthusiasm into high strung, excessive, nervous energy. Our all-natural Calm flower essence blend can help!
This special flower remedy blend safely improves patience and self-control in naturally enthusiastic dogs with too much pent up energy.
The result? A more relaxed dog with a calmer, quieter mind and body!
Calm is a superb blend of Bach and American flower remedies, excellent for restlessness, agitation, or excessive nervous energy. A highly effective formula for stressed, high-strung, or under-worked dogs.
It works as a short- or long-term calming aid for dogs that have more energy than they know what to do with.
While Calm is not an anti-anxiety or anti-fear flower remedy formula, it does combine beautifully with several of our blends for anxious, fearful and reactive behavior in dogs. A superior combination with many uses!
"Calm continues to be a favorite essence in our home. We have a chihuahua mix who is prone to shaking... when she's happy, nervous, excited, she shakes. Calm has really balanced her out, and we don't see the shaking that we once did.
Drug-free natural remedy for high-strung, restless, hyper dogs!
Relax your dog with flower essences that calm the body and quiet the mind. Use Calm to help:
- high-strung dogs with a nervous temperament be more settled and steady.
- when natural enthusiasm turns into nervous energy, through stress, discomfort, or lack of exercise.
- reduce restlessness and nervous energy in under-worked working breeds.
- relax dogs with built-up stress from lack of physical exercise or mental stimulation.
- relieve restlessness when old or ill dogs pace and pace, looking for a place to rest, never finding a suitable spot. (Give 3 doses 5-10 minutes apart in acute situations. )
- tone down wired dogs that run from window to window, or one corner of the yard to another, alerting, whining, or barking at anything or nothing.
- reduce nervous, repetitive habits in tightly-wound dogs.
May be combined with other Aldaron Essences formulas for optimal effect
- Calm combines beautifully with our flower essence blends for confidence, reactivity, fears, and separation anxiety.
- To use it this way, give your dog's primary formula 3 times daily, then give a dose or two of Calm shortly before any event or activity where a step down in nervous energy and intensity would be helpful.
- Used with our I'll Be Back formula for separation anxiety: give Calm just before you leave, or add to your dog's water bowl while you're away.
- Used with one of our blends for anxiety, fear and phobias, or for under-confident or reactive dogs: give 1-3 doses of Calm shortly before your walk, the vet visit, the dog show, etc.
- On long days, simply give more doses over the day as needed.
"We have found that combining Confidence Plus and Calm has really helped. We’ve tried a couple other flower essences and after Julie’s suggestion, happy seeing noticeable results... Results are subtle but seeing consistency makes me believe this is the right combo. So important & satisfying to see progress!"
