Calming Taping:

Kinesiology tape can be place on your dog to have a calming effect similar to the "thunder" shirt.

Step one: Cut a piece of tape that is long enough to wrap around your dog's chest and across it's back.


Step two: Tear the paper of the tape in the center and using 50% stretch, lay the tape down in the center of your dog's chest.


Step three: Remove the paper on one side and lay it down with 20-50% stretch as shown in the picture.



Step four: Repeat on the opposite side



Step 5: Cut a second piece of tape that is long enough to wrap around your dog's back


Step 6: Tear the paper in the center and place the center of the tape down with 50% stretch over your dog's lower back


Step 7: Remove the paper on one side and lay it down with 20%-50% stretch doing along your dog's ribs and under torso towards their front arm


Step 8: Repeat on the opposite side



Aromatherapy Relaxation Blend:

  • 1/2 oz base oil (extra virgin olive oil, cold pressed avocado oil, etc)

  • 3 drops Lavender essential oil

  • 3 drops Roman Chamomile essential oil

  • 3 drops Neroli or Sweet Orange essential oil

Apply 1-2 drops of this blend directly to the kinesiology tape. Always be sure to use high quality essential oils when performing aromatherapy!
