Calming Chew
L-theanine + chamomile
A daily soft chew built for the nervous, the storm-shy, and the vet-visit-dreading. L-theanine, ashwagandha, and chamomile take the edge off without sedation, and a gut-brain probiotic strain works the other end of the anxiety loop. No melatonin, no sedatives — calm, not knocked out. Vet-formulated. Third-party tested. Made in a cGMP-certified facility in the USA.

Why dogs do better.
Calm, not sedated
L-theanine promotes relaxed focus without the groggy hangover of sedatives.
For the big moments
Fireworks, thunderstorms, vet visits, car rides, separation. Give 30 minutes ahead.
Gut-brain axis
Includes a probiotic strain, because calm starts in the gut as much as the head.
Non-habit-forming
No melatonin dependency, no sedatives. Safe to give every day.
What's in every chew.
Every active ingredient, with its dose and what it does.
| Ingredient | Amount | Role | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| L-theanine (Suntheanine) | 100 mg | Calm focus without sedation | Pike et al., 2015 |
| Ashwagandha root extract | 50 mg | Adaptogen for stress response | — |
| Organic chamomile | 100 mg | Soothes restlessness | — |
| Hemp seed powder | 75 mg | Calming support (no CBD, no THC) | — |
| Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086 | 1 billion CFU | Gut-brain axis support | Kalman et al., 2009 |
Includes a gut-brain probiotic strain — because anxious dogs are very often gut-unsettled dogs. No melatonin and no sedatives, so your dog stays themselves, just less wound up.
How to use.
Based on your dog's weight.
For a known stressor (fireworks, the vet, a road trip), give 30 minutes ahead. For everyday nerves, one chew daily — the calming effect builds over 2–4 weeks of consistent use.
