Overview
VetriScience Calm & Confident Chews, also sold under the Composure name, are chicken-flavored calming chews for dogs built around a colostrum calming complex, L-theanine, and thiamine. The 120-count bag suits ongoing daily use rather than occasional dosing alone.
The active ingredient list leans on L-theanine, an amino acid associated with calm alertness, alongside a colostrum-based complex and thiamine, rather than a sedative. VetriScience markets it for stress triggers like thunderstorms, fireworks, and travel, and the chews are formulated to work across small, medium, and large dogs. At a 4.1 rating it lands lower than several other listings in this batch, suggesting more mixed results across dogs.

Who it's for
Dog owners looking for a non-sedative, situational and daily calming supplement for anxiety triggers like storms, fireworks, or travel. Owners expecting a strong sedative-level effect may want to talk to a vet about other options given the more moderate rating here.
