How to use

Fitting the ThunderShirt:

  1. Lay ThunderShirt on your dogs back and attach the neck straps loosely
  2. Wrap the torso flaps around your dogs chest
  3. Adjust the top flap down for a snug and comfortable fit
  4. Please read pack instructions for how to use information including initial fitting and conditioning.

ThunderShirt is designed to be safe to leave on for extended periods of time when appropriate for the situation or issue. When sized correctly and properly put on with a soothingly snug fit, your dog should be very comfortable. If your dog will be wearing a ThunderShirt for more than one hour at a time, we recommend removing ThunderShirt every one to two hours during the initial periods to check for any signs of irritation points. Irritation points are very rare, but it is best to be cautious. After confirming no irritation points during initial uses for extended periods, we recommend that you still remove the ThunderShirt at least twice a day for thirty minutes.

Product Care

ThunderShirt is made with durable, washable fabric. When necessary, ThunderShirt may be washed in a regular cycle using regular laundry detergent and cold water. Hang to dry. Prior to washing, make sure to connect all of the hook and loop fasteners to avoid the risk that they might grab other fabrics in the wash.

Warnings and Safety

Do not use on any animal except dogs.

Thundershirt - I was dubious but it does actually seem to help
Verified Purchase

By Kerys Jordan on 31 March 2025

I bought this to try on my anxious rescue dog. I was dubious that it would help but for the price thought it was worth a try. To be honest I have been surprised and it does actually seem to help. He doesn't mind wearing it either. It is well made and washes well.

Staffies

Christine

My Staffordshire Bull Terrier is nearly 4 years old, she doesn't like fireworks at all, and loud bangs of any description upset her, would a jacket help,this is common with this breed, have you had any feedback from any staffie owners.

  • VioVet Staff

We do hear of people who say their dog is calmer when using this product, though I am not aware of any reports which have specifically mentioned a Staffie. Some people also say that it does not work at all for their pet. I think that it does help most dogs, but it is not going to be the perfect answer for all. Unfortunately you cannot know if it will work without trying it.
