ThunderShirt for Dogs | Dog Calming Jacket | Thundershirt for Dogs XL | Anxiety Jacket for Dogs UK | Instant Natural Relief for Storms, Fireworks & Travel | Anti-Anxiety Coat for Dogs | 5 Sizes, Grey

I bought this for my dog who hates sudden loud noises. We tried it out on new years eve knowing one of our neighbours were going to be letting of fireworks.It really seemed to calm him down, while he was still looking around whenever they were let off he was not jumping up as he usually does.The velcro makes it really easy to adjust the size for your particular dog.

I ordered the ThunderShirt for my three and a half year old Maltese dog after searching for something that would help him from being stressed and barking his heart out every time he heard fireworks. It arrived earlier than I expected which was great as where I live fireworks are set off way before bonfire night. From the moment I put it on him he relaxed completely and didn’t attempt to bark or run to the door once despite the firework noises being relentless. It was unbelievable really and he has worn it for the last three evenings and has been very happy to have it on. It fits perfectly and the material is lovely and soft and stretches well. I will say though that the Velcro fasteners are strong and do make the Velcro ripping sound but my dog was already used to this from the Velcro fasteners on his dog coat so it didn’t bother him. The other thing I noticed was that he didn’t bother barking when an animal appeared on TV which is a real bonus as he usually barks at every creature even a cartoon one! So this will be great to put on him for a while if we want to watch an animal film or programme in peace. I’m so happy that we have had a stress free fireworks weekend at last. The ThunderShirt is worth every single penny I paid for it.

Fit my old staffie well. It had a great comforting effect on her. Well made and we still have it in the cupboard now to use on other dogs when needed.

easy to fit to your dog. my 14yr old miniature Poodle i have only used it on for a short time & have not seen result yet as dog very stressed all the time.

First one I ordered had Velcro fasten not fully stitched looked like machinest had run out of thread but not realised, but seller quickly replaced without any problems. Whilst the coat is a little too lose on my teacup Chihuahua if id gone for extra extra small that would have probably been too short in overall body length because my fur baby is a little long. All in all the measurements are very accurate and if you measure your dog has recommended you should be fine. My little fur baby is a little stressfull in new situations but particularly during thunder storms, going to the Vets or when fireworks are going off, so much so I hate it once fireworks go on sale has bonefire night now seems to go on for weeks not just 5th November and likewise New Years Eve as fireworks seem to be the norm. Only had chance to try once so far during heavy thunder storm and within five/ten minutes of putting on my usually very nervous little boy lay down and went to sleep. I just hope it works as Well when fireworks start to go off because its upsetting to see how stressed my little fur baby gets. Likewise on his next visit to the Vets (it was his Vet who recommended the Storm jacket). Initial reaction very good and I'll post an update once the ultimate test takes place - fireworks and Vets visit. Don't know why or how it works but definitely seems like it does. It's a bit like swaddling a baby approach I think, so some could argue a blanker wrapped around the dog with a cuddle would work just as well, but the dog couldn't move around with a blanket but of course can in the Storm jacket. Added benefit this seller was selling the XS Storm Jacket £10 cheaper than Pets At Home and other Amazon sellers, and having seen boxed product in Pets at Home, I can confirm I received the same genuine boxed product. All in all recommended product for stressed pooch. Update had this stress jacket for about 3 years and still fits my pooch perfectly and looks as good as new after numerous washes. It works brilliantly during stressful situations particularly when fireworks are going off. Definitely calms my little fur baby and he happily lets me pit it on him. Definitely worth buying.

I didn't hold out a huge amount of hope for this jacket, but after an awful fireworks 'week' in November, we were dreading New Year's Eve. My dog would charge around the house, frantic, barking and panting, not knowing what to do with herself, from the first 'bang' to the last. It was so upsetting for all of us. A well known tablet / spray / diffuser did nothing for her. This 'coat' didn't work a miracle but it did work wonders!! As soon as we put it on her (before the fireworks), she settled, became very 'docile', got into her bed and went to sleep. We put it on her on New Year's Eve and whilst it didn't stop all of her barking, she was without a doubt, much more relaxed and sleepy. I have no idea how a thin, T shirt type of material can have such an effect, but it helped her a lot. For sizing, I asked a lot of questions on 'ask an owner'. Their answers were very helpful. My dog is a Cavachon, she weighs 11 kilo and is 56cm around the ribs so I didn't know whether to order the medium or small. The small is perfect for her, it's certainly not too small because it's so stretchy and of course, you can't have it loose or it won't do it's job. I would definitely recommend anyone to try this for their anxious dog.

My dog loves this item. It fits so well she doesn’t feel it on her. This is my second Thundershirt. I bought it originally after my dog was spayed and she could still get to her stitches with collar on!! This was perfect to cover her stitches and she didn’t have to wear collar. Then used it to keep her underneath clean in wet dirty weather. Now have another one so I can wash and wear them through the winter months. My dog isn’t anxious or nervous but I have found the perfect solution for me and my dog!!!
