Yes, they come in a wide variety of sizes, based on girth and weight. If you go to their website, you will see the sizing chart. thundershirt.com It does work on the same principle as Temple Grandin's method.

I'm so thrilled with the one which arrived yesterday for Jackson (thank you, Diana, for your comments on her behavior when you walked by with your dogs last evening) that I'll buy one for each of the dogs on this list which might benefit from one. Just do the measurements and let me know what size. Lisa is out of town right now (husband has a business convention) but the offer definitely extends to her, as one of her dogs has major issues with fireworks.

Thank you for your offer Nancy. Mickey suffers from separation anxiety, when ever I leave.

That would be wonderful if it would help him. I'll check the website.

The outside packaging for the Thundershirt has many suggested uses; right after fear of thunder is

separation anxiety. Followed by barking problems, any noise anxiety, car or travel anxiety, crate anxiety,

reactivity, general fearfulness, excitability, leash pulling, and use as a general training tool.

Hi

I'm going to San Jose this afternoon, so I'm not going to make it to the dog training session.

Sorry, I'll make it to next one.
