Reviews
We have only been using the calmer for 2 weeks so still waiting to see how it will settle riley down. I feel he is engaging more but he's a very sensitive boy and when his anxiety was raised, for example if I was teaching him a new skill - he had difficulty in coming down. So his anxiety went up then up again. I think this is improving slightly so looking forward to seeing more improvement xx will keep going with this, especially when it came so highly recommended by a top flyball trainer x
