Valerian root can be a helpful natural remedy for dogs experiencing anxiety, insomnia, or nervousness. It can help calm dogs during stressful situations like thunderstorms, car rides, vet visits, or separation anxiety. Valerian root can also improve sleep quality by reducing the time it takes to fall asleep and promoting more restful sleep.

• Anxiety Relief:

  Valerian root can help reduce both acute stress responses and chronic anxiety in dogs. It can be useful for dogs who are afraid of loud noises, travel, or separation from their owners. 

  • Sleep Support:

    Valerian can help dogs relax and fall asleep more easily, potentially improving their overall sleep quality. This can be especially beneficial for older dogs or those recovering from illness or surgery. 

    • Nervous System Protection:

      Some evidence suggests valerian root may have antioxidant properties that can help protect the nervous system. 

      • Behavioral Support:

        It can be helpful for managing hyperactivity and restlessness in some dogs. 

        • Pain Relief:

          Valerian's sedative properties may also help dogs with chronic pain by promoting relaxation and improving sleep.
