Mountain Naturals has a line of supplements created for those furry friends of ours. Mountain Naturals for Pets is a member of the National Animal Supplement Council, or the NASC. The NASC was created to set quality standards in the animal supplement industry. The quality of our products shows by the stories we can share about them.

Tina was one of the first to try Tranquil Aid liquid when it was released. Her chow, Kody, had a long list of items he had destroyed due to his fear of thunderstorms and wind – a laundry basket, a rocking chair, a heavy-duty electrical cord to their dryer, a metal doorknob… The list of definitively non-food items goes on. About 30 minutes after trying Tranquil Aid on a windy summer night, Kody was able to stop frantically licking his paws and settle down to rest, allowing Tina and her family to get some rest of her own.

Heather’s dog Kinger, a bull-dog mix, is a family dog and does wonderfully with kids. A loyal companion, cool and collected with a heart of gold. However once he sets paw near the vet’s office, his anxiety takes over, and he begins bucking like a horse during the entire exam. He would require a team of vet techs to hold him down. Needless to say, the experience became a significant stress for everyone involved. With Tranquil Aid, he was able to relax enough to listen to commands like “sit” and “lay down.” This was a massive improvement over his previous vet visits.

We also have a version for humans -- InstaCalm -- for those who are interested. Personally I think InstaCalm is a genius invention.

Next time -- while Mountain Naturals has human and animal products, we don’t compromise on quality with our pet supplements. All of our formulas use top-quality ingredients. In fact several of our products are offered in our human and animal divisions – the exact same products, with different labels and dosing specific to humans or pets.
