We got Teddy's "thundershirt" today in the mail. It's a shirt that uses
consistent pressure to calm a dog down. As a special education teacher, I know that we use this principle with autistic children sometimes.... they will often have weighted vests or the therapist will give them deep tissue massage to calm them down.... so I figured why not try it with Teddy, since he is a verrrrryyyy hyper and scared dog. We just got it today, so I have no reviews on how it works... but he looks so darn cute in it, that I had to share his picture!
Here's Teddy modeling his new "thundershirt":
Sorry about his dirty face... he was checking out the back yard and he always manages to get dirty...lol.
I'll let you know if the "thundershirt" does anything for him!!!
Thanks for looking.
