Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

My dog really liked these "stinky" treats (that is dog language for they smell and taste wonderful). Although it was hard to pinpoint if they had a calming effect or not, I was giving them to her during a visit to my mom's where we have to leave her in the house without her crate (it doesn't fit at my mom's place) and we had no problems with her crying or getting into anything. She was a little more settled than usual, though, not sedated, just a little "zen", and I think that might have been the Composure having an effect on her. I am a long time veterinarian and wouldn't give her a product where I didn't trust the brand or the science behind the product. The best calming products work not by drugs but by following sound behavioral principles. The Composure treats have a patented colostrum complex that is supposed to evoke the safe feeling of a puppy with its mother, similar in fact to the concept behind pheromone products like D.A.P. (dog appeasing pheromone) and Comfort Zone. In fact, using the pheromone collars, plug-in diffusers, and sprays, along with this product could produce an additive effect. I was also using the Comfort' Zone spray at my mom's house. Recommend the Composure treats because they are a highly palatable, high quality product with good science behind the ingredients, and they may help your dog feel calmer, especially with chronic rather than occasional use. Veterinarian strongly recommends.
