So that works with 4th of July or a storm you know is coming, but not for spur of the moment issues. I’ll find the pill bottle and post the name of the pill.

We have some medicine the vet gave us to calm him down from a few months back to help anxiety for longer trips. It;s probably the same stuff as it's supposed to be administered an hour in advance.
We just hate giving it to him because it makes him look like he feels "drugged" Last night we gave him 1/4 of a pill.
If we give him a whole one...it throws him "off" the entire day.
