Zylkene

< Back

Zylkene is a unique treatment for stress in Dogs, Cats and Horses. It is a safe and natural remedy, based on a protein extracted from milk. It acts on certain receptors in the brain to have a calming effect during periods of stress or environmental challenge. Ideally it is given once daily for a few days beforehand, then also on the same day as the stressful event. It is safe to give for long periods too, but if this is done, it works best if combined with some form of training or de-sensitising regime.

There are many reports in the literature of remarkably good responses to Zylkene. In dogs and cats it is particularly good for travel, re-homing, grooming, visiting the vets etc. For horses, Zylkene Equine can easily be given in feed for clipping, travelling, shoeing etc.

Zylkene can help in many situations where animals might be expected to feel anxious or stressed. However do remember that you have a part to play too. Our animals have a phenomenal ability to pick up on signals we give them. Zylkene works best when combined with thoughtful and considerate handling from calm and sensible people!

I used this for my collie as it was recommended by the behavioural specialist we were seeing. She said in her experience it worked well for some dogs but not so well with others I found that to be the case as it seemed to have an effect for a while but then seemed to stop working Although for a short term fix it was effective

Brilliant product

7th May 2013
  • VioVet Customer Since: April 2013
  • From: North Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Effective, easy to use and quick to work. My Border Collie stopped stressing within a couple of days and takes it daily as we have two small children that she used to struggle to cope with. Now she is far less bothered by the noise they create and alongside her daily walk/run Zylkene helps her cope generally

Zylkene equine sachet

7th May 2013
  • VioVet Customer Since: February 2013
  • From: Lincolnshire, United Kingdom

After nearly a year of trying to get all four feet trimmed on our very nervy 3 1/2 year old cob I tried Faulkner as a last resort before giving in to get him sedated. It is absolutely amazing. He stood quietly in his box four every foot and even the carrier was impressed at the change in him. I always keep some in now and will continue to use it.
