Questions
Will my dog get hot wearing the shirt all day ?
ThunderShirts are made from cotton which is a breathable fabric. This has no lining and is not designed to be used as a coat. However, always monitor your dog for any signs of overheating such as heavy panting or tongue hanging out of the mouth and make sure there are amply water bowls for them.

Do I have to put it on him every day ?
The answer depends on the cause of anxiety. If it is from thunder storms then listen to the forecast and have the thunder shirt ready. If it is travel anxiety then only when you are about to travel.

It looks complicated to put on.

How long before a storm do I need to put the ThunderShirt on ?
There is no set time. Some people put the shirt on first thing in the morning, others wait to see what the weather is doing on the day.
How quickly will it take to start working ?
Depending on the dog and the level of anxiety, many owners see reductions or complete elimination of symptoms with the very first use. With others, it may take two or three usages of ThunderShirt to see results.
