Bugalugs Calming Powder Supplement for Dogs 80g

Bugalugs Calming Powder Supplement is an advanced nutritional supplement designed to give your dog natural calm and emotional balance in stressful situations.

Short summary: This calming powder combines powerful adaptogens such as ashwagandha with amino acids and herbal extracts that work synergistically to reduce anxiety without causing drowsiness. The formula supports the nervous system in phobias of loud noises (thunderstorms, fireworks), during travel or with signs of separation anxiety. The easy-to-dose powder form lets you mix the supplement directly into food, for fast absorption and effective results. The product proudly carries the Made in UK badge.

Natural Calm Without Compromising Energy

Stress in dogs can show itself in many ways – from destructive behaviour at home to excessive barking or trembling at noises. Bugalugs Calming Powder is formulated by experts to tackle these conditions at their root. The L-tryptophan it contains stimulates the production of serotonin (the "happy hormone"), while magnesium helps relax muscle tension and calm nervous excitability.

What makes this supplement unique is the inclusion of Ashwagandha – an ancient adaptogen that helps the body adapt to stress and regulates cortisol levels. Lemon balm and chamomile add a final calming touch, making the supplement ideal for long-term temperament support or for specific events. As it contains no artificial fillers, it is extremely gentle on the digestive system and is eaten eagerly even by the fussiest dogs.

Frequently asked questions

Question 1: How long before a stressful event should I give the supplement? For optimal results for specific events (such as fireworks or travel), start giving it 3 to 5 days in advance. For severe anxiety, you can give the dose 60 to 90 minutes before the event for a short-term calming effect. Question 2: Can it be used for puppies? Yes, the supplement is completely safe for puppies from 12 weeks of age. It is especially useful for calming hyperactive young animals or helping them settle into a new home. Question 3: Will the supplement change my dog's personality? No, Bugalugs Calming Powder is not a drug or a strong sedative. It works to reduce panic and nervousness, allowing your dog's "true" personality to show without fear. Your dog will stay alert and able to interact normally.

Expert tip

Calming supplements work best when combined with behavioural therapy. If your dog suffers from separation anxiety, use the supplement daily to lower its stress threshold while you work with a professional trainer. When storms are expected, create a "safe place" for your dog with its favourite toys and blankets – the combination of physical security and natural calming ingredients gives the fastest and most lasting results.
