Works very well..almost a Thunder Shirt.
I am a vet tech and an animal welfare officer so have seen this type of shirt used in many cases. In comparison to the Thunder Shirt I rate this a 4 out of 5. This shirt is a lighter weight and doesn't cover as much of the dog as the thunder shirt does. That being said it works almost as well as the thunder shirt. It doesn't have a double belly velcro system like the thunder shirt. The thunder shirt gets secured on your dog and then you can tighten or loosen the second belly band as needed without the shirt coming completely undone. For most dogs this isn't an issue, just the ones that might be bouncing around or are nipping due to anxiety. I've used this type of shirt for relieving stress from car rides, vet visits fire works, distant gunfire and of course thunder storms. I have yet to not have the shirt work to some extent. Being lighter weight is advantageous in warmer climates and the over all effect is very close to a Thunder Shirt. I highly recommend this product.....and it comes in cool colors.
