My dog barks wildly at a tree. Can calming aid cause hallucinations?

Question

Hi, I have a 3 year old beagle named Buddy. I just went outside and he was barking up a tree like crazy. He was tearing off branches, pulling down moss, and jumping up and down. He howls & barks all the time but not like this. There were no cats, birds or any animals up the tree. And two weeks ago, I brought him on a road trip and gave him I think 2 pills of calming aid for the road. It didn’t seem to help. But could that calming aid be causing him to have hallucinations? Thanks!! Pet's info: Dog | Beagle | Male | neutered | 3 years and 2 months old | 30 lbs

It is probably not related to the calming aid, especially if he is acting fine otherwise. Maybe a squirrel ran up the tree that you didn't see. Monitor him for additional signs and if his behavior continues then have your vet examine him.
