    Valerian saved my son's life! As a 9 year old he was having severe mental issues and this stuff kept him calm enough to go to school every day. It's also is great for my autistic husband 👍

      Hey hi... I could send you a sample of what I have been giving to my pets... It is organically grown ground into a very fine dust (pure valerian) that I store in the freezer (because they will find it and make a mess with it) and take a pinch out at a time and make like 3 little piles of it on a paper plate as a treat and they lick it up and kinda act super silly and relaxed...

    I had the same idea months ago with my dog! I drink a herbal sleep tea + Valerian root. I tell him he's getting mummys sleepy tea, he sits and waits for his small cup to get cooler and loves it!

    Hooray! We have used Valerian root on our babies for several years. Our rescued Anatolian used to have panic attacks when storms came up. Valerian helped him so much he now comes to ask for his valerian drop biscuit when a big one is coming but he doesn't bother for little storms! It has also been helpful with his separation anxiety. Valerian helps him recognize that what felt like a threat really isn't so he can better self regulate as time goes on. My good boy is doing great! ❤️❤️❤️
    Yes, it does smell like a raccoon died in a florist's shop on Friday of a long weekend and it's now Tuesday morning, but that's very temporary. And it works!

    I had never heard of this! I have used valerian periodically throughout my life when life happened; ie death of my brother and parents, divorce and most recently, the disappearance of my daughter (she's still missing) but had no idea I could use it on my pup and my kitties! This could save BOTH my husband's and my arms, chest (and face!) from looking like hamburg after trying to cut nails, groom them, etc. Thank you SO MUCH!!!

      Nope. The essential oil is entirely different than the extract. Absolutely NOT interchangeable and not for internal use. My 115lb Anatolian only takes 3 to 5 drops on a biscuit, so the alcohol is very negligible. If it really worries you, order a valerian glycerite.
