The abundance of noise and chaos agitates our very sensitive Great Dane, Shakespeare, to the point that he jumps up on folks, paces back and forth, and barks for no apparent reason.

<p><strong>The claim:</strong> Sentry claims that the collar helps dogs in fearful or stressful situations (separation anxiety, fireworks, thunderstorms, visitors, new baby, traveling, pulling on leash, whining, chewing, aggression, incessant barking). The collar mimics pheromones that mother dogs produce to calm and reassure her puppies. The collar releases pheromones for up to 30 days and is non-toxic. </p>

<p><strong>The test:</strong> Upon opening the collar's packaging I was greeted with the pleasing scent of lavender and chamomile. There was quite a bit of powdery residue that fell from the collar when we first opened it which the box states activates the "pheromone technology." The generous 28" collar fit easily around Shakey's neck with collar to spare which we snipped off with scissors.</p>
|

<p>The following day, as family members began pouring through the door, we paid close attention to Shakespeare's behavior waiting for the jumping, pacing and barking to begin, "when much to our wondering eyes did appear" a very calm and shockingly stress-free pup. Even our 3 year old granddaughter's boisterous behavior failed to get so much as a twitch out of our gentle giant. We were simply amazed!</p>

<p>The Boogie Mat is a fun splash of color with whimsical designs that makes me smile even though I'm knee deep in kitty litter clumps. At 13" by 16½" it's small enough to toss from spot to spot yet large enough to protect my couch while Indy indulges in a little catnap.<br /><br />Indy loves the crinkly sound it makes as she walks across it or rolls around on it and the aroma of the Zoom Around the Room Organic Catnip (included) provides the pièce de ré·sis·tance. Our new rescue kittens are still learning the lay of the land but I suspect they'll conspire to steal the Boogie Mat from big sister once they're settled in.</p>

There's an interesting article on the ByNaturePetFoods.com website that explains <a href="http://www.bynaturepetfoods.com/nutrition/pdf/bynature-whats-better-chicken-or-chicken-meal.pdf" target="_blank" title="Chicken meal vs non-rendered chicken">why chicken meal is better than "non-rendered" chicken</a>. I had no idea!</p>

We're never quite sure how they're going to react to new foods or treats, however their reaction to an unguarded bag of <a href="http://www.bynaturepetfoods.com/productpages/catmain.php" target="_blank" title="By Nature Adult Cat Formula">By Nature's Adult Dry Cat Food</a> left on the living room floor made their opinions quite clear.</p>

<p>Evidently they found the aroma drifting from the bag irresistible and became obsessed with devouring it's crunchy bounty. Breaking into the food before the review is our cat's way of saying, "WE LUV DIS FUD!"</p>
