Question:

Hi: I have a black lab puppy who will soon be 8 mohths old. He is fine around me and my other dog but when other peopel come to visit he goes nuts and he is around people all of the time just when they come to the door look out. Will any type of calming pills work on him while my mom is here visiting me for a week? I just need him to be calm around her. I know this is normal for a puppy to react but he may be too over the top for her. Thanks Bev

Answer:

Sorry, but there is nothing that is safe to give your pet long term for this reason. Maybe someone can petsit while your mom is in town. By the way labs usually calm down at about 2 years of age. I recommend that you have your pet neutered as well b/c this will help. vetcare
