My dogs really love the taste of these. I don't find them super effective but they do have somewhat of a calming effect. My friend says it really helps her dog, mine just semi helps.

These chews are effective when my dog actually takes them. He’s a bit picky about the taste—he must smell something that makes him hesitant—but on the occasions he does eat one, they work wonderfully. I notice a clear calming effect, especially when we have guests over. They’ve been a helpful tool for keeping him more relaxed in those situations.

I have to say this is perfect for the days I have the landscaper come or just for having to leave them home alone a little longer. Works perfectly for them.
