Calming treats and supplements for an anxious dog only help if you can tell they're working. PetHealthLog lets you log each calming treat or supplement, mark the stressful days, and see doses and anxiety on one timeline - so you know whether the routine is settling things. Free, no account, works offline.
Start tracking - it's freeBuild a printable prep checklist — what to bring, what to write down, questions to ask.
Dog anxiety shows up around specific triggers - thunderstorms, fireworks, being left alone, the car - and it comes and goes. When you're trying a calming treat, a supplement like L-theanine or a pheromone routine, the honest question is whether the bad days are getting less frequent or less intense.
That's almost impossible to judge from memory. "He seemed a bit calmer last week, I think" is a weak basis for deciding whether to keep going, change the product, or talk to your vet about something stronger.
A simple tracker closes the gap. PetHealthLog is free, needs no account and works offline, so logging a calming treat and a quick note on how the day went builds into a picture you and your vet can actually read.
Add the treat, chew or supplement by name and when it's given - a daily supplement and an as-needed treat before a storm both fit on the same timeline.
Note the trigger days - storms, fireworks, time alone, vet visits - right next to the doses, so patterns and progress become visible.
Over a few weeks the doses-and-anxiety timeline shows whether the bad days are easing, instead of relying on a vague impression.
Keep weight and each vet visit in the same private timeline as everything else.
Export a clean record of what you've tried and how your dog responded, so a behaviour or anxiety conversation with the vet starts from real data.
If your vet suggests trying a calming aid, these are the common over-the-counter options. Match the product and dose to your vet's advice and your dog's weight.

A tracker is for patterns over time — it is not for emergencies. Contact a veterinarian or an emergency clinic right away if your pet has difficulty breathing, collapses or cannot stand, has a seizure that does not stop or seizures that repeat, is straining to urinate without producing urine, has severe bleeding, or may have swallowed something toxic (see ASPCA Animal Poison Control).
