Sage was the easy one. Calm from day one. Nothing fazed her.
Pip was a rescue. Scared of everything. Paced when he was alone. Hid during storms. Flinched at loud noises.
We tried everything for him. Treats, CBD, vests, two different Amazon collars that reeked of lavender and did nothing.
Then we learned something most dog owners don't know: most calming collars don't use pheromone at all. They use essential oils and fragrance.
Dogs don't respond to lavender. They respond to DAP, the pheromone their mother released while nursing.
So we made a collar that uses the real thing and called it Sage & Pip. One dog who had calm. One dog who needed it.
