Real experiences from dog parents using Nuvi Harmony & Behavior
From Overwhelmed Puppy to Calm, Focused Companion
Age: 6-month-old Lab mix
Challenge: Separation anxiety, biting for attention, post-surgery restlessness
When we adopted our puppy, we expected energy — but we didn't expect constant anxiety. She struggled when confined after her spay surgery, became overstimulated easily, and even bit when she wanted attention. Our vet suggested daily medication, but we wanted to explore gentler options first.
That's when we found Nuvi Harmony & Behavior.
We noticed a difference within the first hour. She was calmer — not sleepy, not dulled — just more settled. Over the next few days, we learned what worked best for her and stuck with a consistent routine. After about a week and a half, the calm became more stable and predictable.
Today, she still plays, gets zoomies, and enjoys life — but the anxiety and impulsive behavior are dramatically reduced. Most importantly, training finally started to click. She listens, focuses, and responds in ways she couldn't before.
Nuvi didn't change who our dog is — it helped her become the version of herself we knew was in there.
Helping a Rescue Dog Feel Safe When Left Alone
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier (rescue)
Challenge: Severe separation anxiety
Our rescue dog had the worst separation anxiety we'd ever seen. Leaving the house meant crying, pacing, and obvious panic — and coming home felt heartbreaking every time.
Nuvi became part of a broader routine focused on patience, training, and reassurance. From the beginning, the chews were easy to give — he treated them like a reward, not medicine.
Over time, something changed. Instead of panicking when we left, he stayed calm. When we came home, he was relaxed — sometimes even napping. No frantic energy, no distress.
Nuvi didn't sedate him or suppress his personality. It helped him feel secure enough to self-settle. Day by day, his confidence grew — and so did our peace of mind.
Taking the Edge Off During Storms and Stressful Moments
Breed: Husky / German Shepherd mix
Challenge: Thunderstorm anxiety
Thunderstorms used to be tough for our dog. Heavy panting, restlessness, and obvious stress were common whenever storms rolled in. We didn't want to rely on prescription medication unless absolutely necessary, so we were looking for something milder for everyday situations.
We tried Nuvi before several storms and noticed a subtle but meaningful difference. He was still aware of the noise — but he wasn't panicking. Instead of pacing, he settled next to us and accepted comfort more easily.
It wasn't a miracle cure — and we didn't expect one — but it clearly helped him cope better. For moderate stress situations, Nuvi became our go-to support.
A Simple Way to Help High-Energy Dogs Wind Down
Household: Multiple dogs
Challenge: High energy before bedtime
With multiple dogs in the house — some calm, some very energetic — we weren't looking for dramatic changes. We just wanted a way to help our more active dogs settle, especially in the evenings.
Nuvi fit seamlessly into our routine. All of the dogs liked the chews, which was a surprise in itself. Over the first week, we noticed that the high-energy dogs became easier to manage before bedtime — calmer, less restless, and more willing to relax.
The change wasn't extreme, but it was noticeable and consistent. The chews didn't knock them out or alter their personalities. They simply helped create a calmer environment at the end of the day.
Every dog is different. Nuvi is designed to support calm gently and naturally.
