ThunderShirt Instructions

Step 1

We recommend using the ThunderShirt for the first time when your dog is NOT anxious so they can get used to the snug feeling in a calm comforting setting

Step 2

Attached to the main body you will find 2 chest straps, 1 long flap, 1 short flap & 1 top flap

Step 3

Place the main body of shirt along the back of the dog

Step 4

Wrap chest straps gently around the dog's neck. These straps are just to hold the ThunderShirt in place so there shouldn't be any pressure here.

Step 5

Wrap the long flap under torso & secure with short flap to make a secure short fit

Step 6

Wrap top flap down onto long flap & secure with the fasteners. Adjust if needed to improve the snug fit not too tight just comfortable pressure
