Can get it at health food stores like Whole Foods also.   Dose is 
3mg dogs 35-100lbs; and 6mg dogs over a 100lbs, given up to 3 
times/day.  It doesn't work in all cases, somewhere around 80% 
efficiency is what I read.  

I use it on Sonny and it helps him to where he stays calm during 
thunderstorms.
