Periods of separation between you and your dog are inevitable. Separation
anxiety, however, is not. If your veterinarian has diagnosed your pet's
separation anxiety, Reconcile® can help. Reconcile is a chewable,
flavored tablet that you give to your dog once a day to treat separation anxiety in conjunction with a simple training plan. Reconcile chewable
tablets are approved for use in dogs and puppies 6 months of age or older that
weigh 8.8 lbs (4.0 kg) or greater.
Documented effectiveness
Reconcile has been extensively tested in dogs of different breeds, sizes, age
and gender in the United States and other countries.
- Within 8 weeks, 73% of dogs treated with Reconcile showed significant improvement as compared to behavior modification alone (51%).
- 42% of dogs receiving Reconcile showed significant improvement within the 1st week, which was significantly greater than with behavior modification alone (18%).
It can take time to see improvement in your pet's behaviors. Don't give up if you don't see immediate improvement. It is important that you continue the medication as prescribed. If no improvement is noted within 8 weeks, your veterinarian will discuss additional treatment plans for your dog.
Combined with a simple training plan, Reconcile reduces the frequency
of separation anxiety behaviors and produces a calmer, less anxious pet.
