That was me who answered your question! You said one of the things that Daisy does is bark a lot when outside alone, and as you can see from the package, it helps with excessive barking. The collar releases calming pheromones when in touch with her skin, which can help with her current behaviors, which can be stress related from anxiety. You can keep going outside with her if it makes her happy, but I imagine you don't want to do that all the time. Try the collar first to see if it helps.

There is no scientific data that says these sprays work. I assume that you are talking about spray attractants for housetraining a puppy. The best advice is to look at reviews on Amazon and choose one with the best reviews. Because veterinarians don't really study these kinds of things and most of the recommendations come from dog trainers based on personal experience with using them. Also if you ask top dog trainers they will not focus so much on the spray attractants, but instead will focus on consistent training methods to get your pet to use the potty on the pee pads only. Which involves close monitoring of your puppy, diligence to picking up your puppy and taking her to the puppy pad when she goes somewhere else, and crating your puppy when you cannot monitor her at all times.

Poor boy! I would try a calming collar like sentry or adaptil. You can also try essential oils that are calming. I would talk to a good company like DoTerra to get more information on which oils are safe for pets. Also, I would talk to your vet about starting him on a anti-anxiety medicine like fluoxetine and hire a trainer to show you the best ways to train this out of him. It is usually recommended for them to be on some type of medication while re-training them. Finally, if you don't want to use medication, you can try to find a holistic vet to try Chinese herbs and acupuncture. There have been some good success with this as well. I hope this helps!

Sport dog is a good brand with several levels of correction. This will not be effective for chewing unless you are always there to correct her. If she chews when you are not home there is no way to know or enforce or correct this. For any training you have to ask them to perform something they know, such as sit. If they do not do it you push the button. If they do well then you reward them. Keep them on a leash while training. When you ask them to come, you pull the leash. If there is no interest then you correct them. They will learn to associate the two things together quickly to respond

Poor Freeman! You can get a pheromone diffuser called DAP that helps dogs with anxiety and pair that will a DAP pheromone collar that releases pheromones when in contact with his skin. If those do not help him, then I recommend having him seen by a vet to discuss the use of anti-anxiety medications. Best of luck.
