yeah i was loooking into melatonin first before pulling into prozac and xanax, i will speak to my vet about it. i dont really want him on long term drugs unless its needed, wat is your experience with having dogs on these type of meds and then weening him off? does his behavior decline or does it stay consistant? how soon do you start noticing affects in behavior with these types of meds? i dont want these drugs to knock my dog out (hes already a couch potato) or change his good behavior, will that happen?
