It Only Hurts When I Laugh!

The dog insisted I wear the Cone of Shame after my surgery.

A few days ago, I had surgery to remove my gallbladder. I had been putting it off, but it finally came to the point where I knew it was time for it to go. The surgery was a success, and my digestive problems have all but completely disappeared. I posted this photo on Facebook, and it got a lot of comments, so I wanted to share it with you so you could enjoy the laugh as well.

Do Thunder Shirts Really Work?

One of our favorite clients, weathering the storm in her Thunder Shirt.

Central Florida gets a LOT of thunder storms, and many of our furry friends are very nervous about them. So we often get asked about the Thunder Shirt, and whether or not they actually work to calm a pet's anxiety. We've done some research and here's what we've learned about the Thunder Shirt:

Many pet owners report that the Thunder Shirts really do help their pets. On sites like Amazon, where customers can review the products, it generally gets 4 out of 5 stars, or a comparable rating, indicating that most people have been very satisfied with the results.
The product can be used to alleviate animal's fear of thunder, as well as other anxieties, including separation anxiety, barking problems, car and travel phobias, crate problems, fearfulness, excitability, and more.
Most pets feel better right away, but sometimes it takes two or three tries before the full results are shown. So if you try it on your dog, and it doesn't work, try again later.
They sell for about $40 and are available online and at Pet Retailers everywhere.
Getting the right fit is key. It needs to be snug, but not painfully so.
They offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, so there's really no reason not to try it. If, after a few attempts, your dog or cat doesn't seem more relaxed, you can return it for a full refund.
