Thundershirt is a new product from the USA that uses Tellington TTouch principles to apply gently constant pressure to the dog that creates a calming effect on most anxious, fearful, noise sensitive and over excited dogs. These thunder coats or vests have the most amazing calming effect on dogs, In the US over 2,000 customers were surveyed and the results showed a significant improvement in over 80% of dog. Thundershirts are used worldwide and are even being endorsed by vets, trainers, behaviourist and Tellington TTouch practitioners both sides of the Atlantic. The dog thunder shirt is not so much a full-on dog coat, but an axiety wrap that is easy to put on by dog owners. In some cases they will work on cats too.

The Thundershirt is also in keeping with the Tellington TTouch phylosophy and recommended by Tellington TTouch instructors; Linda Tellington Jones, Kathy Cascade, Sarah Fisher and many practitioners including Marie Miller and Jacqui Carter.

American Vet Dr. Temple Grandin believes that the gently pressure applied by the Thundershirt has a calming effect on the dog’s nervous system. For years pressure has been used for relieve anxiety. For example:

* TTouch practitioners use pressure to address a wide variety of anxieties.
* Vets use pressure to relax cattle when they are administering vaccinations.
* People with autism use pressure to relieve their persistent anxiety.
* Children with certain behavioural problems use pressure shirts and weighted vests to relax and focus.
* Parents use swaddling to calm an inconsolable new born infant.

Until now, the only option has been a body wrap which is hard to administer and only suitable for short-term use. Thundershirt has changed that! Thousands of veterinarians and dog trainers now recommend Thundershirts for their anxiety cases.

Marie Miller, one of the UK's leading dog behaviourists and a Tellington TTouch practitioner says "

"As one would expect from the name, Thundershirts can be extremely helpful for sound sensitive dogs, especially as one can't always predict when the next thunderstorm, firework or crop scarer bang is going to cause an upset. Thundershirts can also be hugely helpful when working with dogs who bark reactively, shrink away nervously or struggle with car travel and sickness. They are definitely a welcome addition to my tool kit to help some of the less confident puppies and dogs to settle into Paws'n'Learn's small group classes." 

“We use Thundershirts at my clinic and the feedback from our clients is very positive.”

Dr. Donald Heagren, DVM
