Fireworks may be one of most stressful things to an animal. When this is true for your pet, it’s wise to start him on Zylkene a few days before New Year’s Eve or Bonfire Night. Giving a higher dose to achieve the wanted result is no problem. 

Persistent Behavioural Problems

Constant exposure to stressful situations can cause (permanent) behavioural problems, such as eating disorders or digestive problems, relieving or peeing in the house, anxiety, aggressiveness or stereotypical behaviours (licking, self-mutilation, spinning etc.).
