I didn't know that dogs could take Zoloft, but I do know somebody who paints puppies' claws to tell them apart, so perhaps Chili was remembering something when browsing cosmetics? Haha, only joking.

If things get really rowdy, and you're REALLY sweet, you might be able to persuade Chili to share some of her "happy" pills with you! If not, a nice glass of wine and a good book might work the same magic! <br />Your night with the author sounds really fun, it's always interesting to get their take on their writing process.

One more thing you might try is diffusing some lavender oil. It does not help for my Lillie during storms, but it might work for your littles. I probably should have mentioned it before buying the happy pills, and happy pills beat booze...for dogs anyway. This may or may not apply to humans. I love reading about your adventures, and I am taking notes so I can be like you when my kids leave the nest. Hope you have a lovely weekend!!!
