Can Composure Chews help hyper puppies and anxious senior dogs?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Pembroke Welsh Corgi | Female | spayed | 12 years old | 21 lbs

Our vet suggested Composure Soft Chews for one of our dogs. We recently adopted him and he's probably just over a year but acts like a hyper 6 month old puppy. Can we also use it for our 12 yr old dog that takes Prozac for anxiety during those extra stress times like trash day? She also gets Sileo Oromucosal Gel for thunderstorms. Thank you!

Hi and thanks for posting! Yes, this is an excellent product that can be used on young and adult or older dogs. The Composure chews contain a mixture of botanicals and also L-theanine which is an amino acid that helps promote calm feelings and lessens anxiety. This can be given daily or double dosed prior to stressful events. I hope this helps!
