Wow Sandie - that's amazing that putting on his peacoat settled him down. I've seen ads for the Thundershirt and always thought it was just a bunch of hokey, but I see that I'm wrong. I read that article that you linked, and I bookmarked it for future reference. Very interesting! Maybe with warmer weather on the way, you could get Marlin a kid size tee shirt, since the peacoat will probably be too warm.

Continuing with the prayers and good vibes for Marlin Darlin. Hoping some meds and new techniques make him more content.

Friends of mine have a Mini Schnauzer rescue pup, who apparently lived outside in Louisiana before his rescue and transport North. So he naturally came with thunderstorm anxiety. They got him a thunder shirt, and as Michael describes" "It makes him calm, but a bit puzzled, like 'I'm not freaking out, but I don't know why!" Far easier to deal with then destructive anxiety and the panic and trying to calm him back down afterwards!

Mikey has a thunder shirt. I can't give much of a review on it because we haven't had much storms here yet. But I've heard it really works. I've seen it on the news to and there's a bunch of dogs that it DID work for. I really hope that can help Marlin! If the pea coat worked something tighter may do the trick!

The Thunder Shirt is a great help for my 16 year old pup, I'm glad Marlin's pea coat helps him too!

I've read nothing but bad reviews of the thundershirt. I want to try something with Naylee but I don't want to spend that much money if it doesn't work, especially since she needs an x-large shirt. I'm happy the peacoat works for Marlin though.

Try a tight fitting tee shirt like was suggested in the link. That won't set you back more then a couple of bucks at the most, and if it doesn't work, then you haven't really lost much.
