Hello. I\'ve just received my 2nd order of Feliway and although I had no faith in a colourless liquid that had no smell and looked like water I now have cats who are tolerating each other very well. From the sort of hatred that woke the household many a night with their fights and made one choose to stay out until the evening we now have a peaceful household. This stuff is unbelievably good. We love our animals very much and the thought of having to rehome one was beginning to rear it\'s head, but there is no chance of that happening now. Thank you so much and thank you for your fast and efficient delivery too.

D.A.P. (Dog Appeasing Pheromone) - to help dogs overcome fears and stress.
Proven to help comfort both puppies and adult dogs in challenging situations outside, the D.A.P. Collar is recommended:
• To help a puppy settle into a new environment away from his mother and siblings
• To help a rescue dog adjust to a new home and family
• To help dogs remain calm during a stay in kennels
• To ensure a puppy’s first experiences of new activities are positive, especially during the socialisation period
• To help dogs cope with novel and unpredictable situation away from the home
• To help dogs exhibiting fear related reactions outside the home when encountering traffic, other dogs, thunderstorms, gunshots etc.
The D.A.P. Collar works by releasing a constant stream of synthetic dog appeasing pheromone for a period of about 4 weeks. The dog appeasing pheromone is a substance produced naturally by a lactating bitch to reassure and calm her puppies, as they explore and learn about the world around them.
Importantly this pheromone is also proven to have a positive relaxing and comforting influence on adult dogs, increasing their confidence in the outside world and make the process of accepting new or difficult stimuli more relaxed and less challenging.
Combining the D.A.P. Collar with the D.A.P. Diffuser may provide optimum results for dogs showing indoor and outdoor fears and for puppies or adult dogs settling into a new home. In multi-dog households, it is recommended that all the dogs wear a D.A.P. Collar or that a D.A.P. Diffuser used. The D.A.P. Collar should be left on the dog at all times.
What causes dogs to bark excessively, whine and tear up the house when left alone?
Dogs are social animals and can act out destructive behaviors due to separation anxiety. Dogs that suffer from separation anxiety exhibit undesirable behaviors associated with stress, fear and anxiety, such as restlessness, excessive whining and barking, and adult destructive chewing and house soiling.
What types of situations can cause a dog stress?
Separation Anxiety: physical separation from the owner/pet guardian to whom it is attached.
New People/Things: moving or major changes in the household, remodeling or redecorating, new pieces of furniture.
Temporary changes: being transported, hospitalized or boarded.
What is D.A.P.?
Developed for pet owners by veterinarians, D.A.P.™ (Dog Appeasing Pheromone) mimics the properties of the natural pheromones of the lactating female. Within three to five days after giving birth, the female generates pheromones that give their puppies a sense of well-being and reassurance, known as appeasing pheromones.
How can D.A.P. calm dogs in stressful situations?
Pheromones are picked up and detected by an animal`s sense of smell producing specific responses. By replicating this signal of comfort, D.A.P.™ helps alleviate fear and stress related signs in the puppy and adult dog.
How long should D.A.P. be used?
To address behavior caused by temporary events, plug the diffuser in for 30 days. Each vial attached to a diffuser lasts approximately four weeks. Repeat as necessary.
How well does D.A.P. work?
In clinical trials with D.A.P.™, destructive behavior and vocalization (excessive barking and whining) were improved or resolved by 72 percent and 85 percent respectively. (Clinical trials were conducted by Ceva Sante Animale between November 1999 and November 2000, and were under the specific direction of Dr. Patrick Pageat.)
Does D.A.P. have any effect on cats?
D.A.P. is a chemical copy of the canine appeasing pheromones in lactating females. The pheromones are species-specific and should not have any effect on cats. The product has not been tested on cats. Please search for Feliway on the VioVet site for a similar product for cats
What does it smell like?
D.A.P. has no smell and is odorless to humans when dry.
Is it a sedative?
No, D.A.P. is a solution that helps calm and reassure puppies and adult dogs.
Should any precautions be taken with pets and children?
Proper product use will not harm children, adults or pets. Plug diffusers into electric sockets in an open area most frequented by the dog. Do not place behind furniture.
How is D.A.P. used?
D.A.P.™ is an easy-to-use "plug-in" diffuser that consists of an electrical plug-in unit and disposable (30-day) bottle that will deliver the pheromone 24 hours a day. It continuously releases the active ingredient into the dog`s environment and allows trouble-free treatment in a 650-square-foot area for approximately four weeks.
