This product stopped our 6 year old Sheltie, Sadie, from trembling when she senses thunderstorms approaching. Sadie is 30 lbs, which means 2 pills per day, once per feeding. She still senses the storms as far as 40 miles away, and will go to a safe place in the middle of the house, but she no longer trembles, and she doesn't get between your feet wherever you go when thunderstorms are approaching or at the house. Revival said it takes about 4-5 days to build up in the dog's system; so this is not meant as a "I hear thunder, I'd better give my dog a pill." In general she is less worried over things and relaxes better. However she is still as playful and full of energy and spunk as before. I see no decrease in her playfulness. Just a lot less worry. Well worth it during thunderstorm season.
Update Jan 4, 2013:
New data point: Ran out of the pills while on travel. Had forgotten that Sadie also trembled when traveling in the car, and she did tremble some while off the pills and riding in the car and while left at my daughter's house when we were gone for a day. She never trembled while on the pills.
Another data point: About a month ago I gave a bottle of the pills to my neighbor whose dog was going through separation anxiety after a sibling dog died. Every time the owner would leave the house on errands, the dog would pant and tremble heavily and constantly bark. The owner reported back to me that the pills had eased the dog's anxiety and that she was now doing well. No more incessant barking.
