When I purchased this, I looked a good solid quality over price. When I got it and put the shirt on my cackapoo, I was really surprised at how it holds true to its name. It works for: thumder storms, fireworks, seperation anxiety, travel, and vet visits. Although my cackapoo still gets scared a bit when fireworks go off and wears the thunder shirt. So I'd honestly say the shirt works 85% of the time. Still quality material though. Sizing and fit for my small cackapoo is really good and doesn;t giver her aan uncomfortable feeling. The velcro is easy to attached to any dog and it holds to their body keeping them safe from danger. For the long term quality, I'd really give this a go and try it for your dog. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ThunderShirt deserves thunder applause *by on Reviewed in the United States August 18, 2025* ***UPDATE:After using ThunderShirt for a year now, I am still just as happy with it as I was when I first wrote this review. We have now used it through countless thunderstorms, as well as both the Fourth of July and New Year’s fireworks. It is the first thing I reach for anytime I know loud noises are coming. My dog accepted wearing it right away and still happily lets me put it on. He seems to associate it with feeling calmer and does not avoid wearing it. It still fits him well. The Velcro and fabric are still in good condition after being used and washed multiple times. It also still reduces his shaking and frantic pacing. He is still aware of storms and fireworks, but instead of panicking, he settles much more quickly and is able to relax. I would absolutely buy this again without hesitation. It has been one of the best purchases I have made for managing my dog’s storm anxiety.***ORIGINALI have tried so many things for my dog's storm anxiety, even vet-prescribed medications, but nothing has worked as well as this ThunderShirt. He is a 30lb terrier mix and the moment it starts storming he shakes like a washing machine and pants like he just ran a marathon. Fireworks are just as bad, and it broke my heart to see him so stressed.I was skeptical at first. But wow, after using it through several storms and fireworks now, he is so much calmer. He does not instantly transform, but in about 10–15 minutes he starts to relax.The Velcro straps make it easy to put on. The medium fits him snugly without feeling restrictive. It is well made. He can still walk, jump on the couch, and move around comfortably. The fabric is lightweight, and he does not overheat. It is also machine washable.Do make sure to measure your dog carefully. The snugness really is what makes this work, and if it is too loose, you will not see the same calming effect.Is he still scared of thunderstorms? Yes. It is not a miracle. It does not erase anxiety altogether. But the constant shaking and frantic behavior is gone. That makes it worth every penny to me. I honestly have 0 negatives to say about it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems to be working. Issues with Amazon's sizing - in review. *by on Reviewed in the United States February 27, 2012* OK - currently I'm rating this 4 stars, but I may come back and change this depending on how things continue to go.For some background - I have a chihuahua mix who is deeply attached to me. He has issues with separation anxiety and a hyper-aggressiveness toward other dogs, particularly large dogs. If he so much as sees a dog or anything else that may be threatening (a person walking by or a noise downstairs) he will start barking as ferociously as a chihuahua can bark. It's problematic for me because he is an agility dog and I have to constantly be aware that he may try to attack the dogs near me at any moment he feels like they're encroaching on his territory (namely, me). I've done obedience training with him since he was 10 weeks old and he's a SUPER well behaved dog aside from these issues.After researching online, I came to realize that he may be suffering from some form of anxiety, which is causing him to act out because he feels threatened. Thus, I came upon the Thundershirt.I'm really not the type of person to purchase items that seem gimmicky, and admittedly, this shirt screams gimmick. However, with nearly 600 reviews on Amazon and a 4.5 star rating, I had to try it. Anything is worth trying if it will remedy a big issue in my dog's life. I don't want him to feel like he has to protect me all the time as that causes undue stress.So, after receiving the shirt, I opened the box and was greeted with a very cute plastic packaging for the shirt. Almost like a manilla envelope except see-through. The shirt was very well made and soft to the touch..but I was more concerned with testing it out rather than inspecting the intricacies of how it was made.I put it on my dog after taking a moment to think about the logic behind the velcro straps and it fit him nice and snug. I ordered an extra small - my dog is about 8 lbs but very lanky and it fit him perfectly. I opted to go with the sizing on the Thundershirt website vs. the Amazon website as I've been burned by Amazon having improper sizing info in the past.I was debating on an XXS vs. a XS.For example - on Amazon an XXS states:Size XXS for dogs less that 12 pounds and with a chese size of 9" - 13.5"Whereas the Thundershirt website states:Size Chest Size WeightXXS 9"-13.5" < 7 lbs.That's a HUGE difference. So I highly recommend using Thundershirt sizing to decide on which is best for your dog.-----------------------------------Here is the complete chart:Size Chest Size WeightXXS 9"-13.5" < 7 lbs.XS 13"-18" 8-14 lbs.S 16"-23" 15-25 lbs.M 18"-26" 26-40 lbs.L 24"-32" 41-64 lbs.XL 31"-40" 65-110 lbs.XXL 38"-50" > 110 lbs.-----------------------------------OK so regarding the efficiency of this shirt.I tested it outdoors with my dog on our front driveway just absorbing the sounds and sights of a normal neighborhood.My dog laid out in the sun and didn't seem reactive to much, whereas he normally would be. A neighbor walked their dog relatively near us, and my dog barked a little but he didn't run after the dog despite not being on a leash. Usually he won't leave my side but it can be unpredictable when it comes to dogs.The next day I took him out again and this time I forgot to put the shirt on. He was more on edge, and when a neighbor brought out their little dog, my dog went crazy and went running up to their dog barking. I grabbed him and took him straight inside.The next day, I tried it with the shirt again. This time children came running by, other dogs, etc. and he didn't move.. he actually just lay on his side and didn't react much. He might give a little bark here and there, but no where near his normal level of intensity.I tried his shirt during his advanced obedience training. He's in a class with all large dogs and the first day (without the shirt)he was shaking and just terrified. He would bark everytime the other dogs seemed to be a safe enough distance away, and wouldn't perform anything in front of the class since he was so scared. (sometimes I think my dog is bipolar). The second day of class (with the shirt) he was way more calm and less scared of the other dogs. We walked by 3 large dogs and he didn't make a peep. He performed in front of the class and was just more mellow overall, although he is still shakey and seems scared.I gave it 4 stars because I DO see improvement in my dog and it has only been about a week or so. However, I feel that although it takes the edge off him, I don't feel like the videos they post showing miraculous changes just by putting on the shirt are accurate. Perhaps there are dogs that this effect will happen, but I would consider it a rarity rather than the norm. I would have preferred more accurate marketing that really stresses the need to do behavioral modification in addition to the shirt. They do mention this, but its very brief compared to the marketing showing it as a miracle shirt.And after reading so many reviews, it seems I'm not alone in this shirt being part of a process rather than a fix.Overall, I recommend it and I'm going to try it with my friend's dog who is VERY hyper and see if it solves any issues with him.EDIT: The shirt worked miraculously on my friend's dog. The dog is high strung, paces, jumps up on people and overall just "starving" for attention. Won't let you pet any other dogs and has to be the center of attention constantly, which wears my friend out.We put the shirt on him and he just calmed down completely to normal dog levels. He lay down, relaxed.. yet, when the other dogs wanted to play, he still had energy to play. I played fetch with my dog in front of him and he just lay down and watched and didn't have the urge to go get the ball himself, which he normally would do.We took the shirt off him to see if maybe he was just in a mellow mood and he immediately got hyper and started pacing everywhere again. She's going to be buying one of these shirts because it made such a big difference in how he behaved. ## Frequently Bought Together - ThunderShirt for Dogs, Medium, Heather Gray Classic - Dog Anxiety Relief Calming Vest - ThunderEase Dog Calming Pheromone Spray | Powered by ADAPTIL | Reduce Anxiety During Travel, Vet Visits and Boarding - ThunderWunders Dog Calming Chews | Thiamine, L-Tryptophan, Melatonin and Ginger | Can Help Relieve Stress from Separation, Storms, Fireworks & Travel (60 Count) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8470636-thundershirt-for-dogs-calming-anxiety-vest-medium-heather-gray-skin](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8470636-thundershirt-for-dogs-calming-anxiety-vest-medium-heather-gray-skin) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
