Michelle,

That is so great that you have been working so hard with Jerry and his
temperament. A dog that large without proper training and care could
certainly be a danger.

I had an alpha female that was so worrisome over the activities of the other
pets in the house, that I started using: <A

tm">Holistic Animal Care - Herbal Calm</A>
. We had really good success with it, and eventually actually stopped using
it daily and only used it situationally when we knew something stressful was
coming up. It seemed to take the edge off of her mood, but left her basic
personality and activity level in tact. She was just less stressed.

Another thing that sometimes helps is L-tryptophan at night to help them
relax and sleep better. Is he restless at night?
