COMPOSURE BITE-SIZED CHEW

COMPOSURE BITE-SIZED CHEW

When humans are exposed to new environmental stressors like a new job or the in-laws visits, we can relax with a warm bath, a cup of tea, or a soothing song. When cats and dogs are exposed to similar stressors (like a car ride or a new baby), their options for relaxation are fewer. Anxiety can run high in dogs who are unwittingly placed in different environmental situations, causing actions like incessant scratching, barking, urine marking or aggressive behavior. Composure Chews are formulated to address these habits and the anxiety that leads to their proliferation.
The Colostrum Complex difference
Composure Chews contain three active ingredients. The C3 Colostrum Calming Complex is isolated from proteins that have a calming effect on animals. These colostrum proteins are bioactive and meant to work synergistically with the L-theanine included to support cognitive functions and stress reduction.
Dog and Cat together
L-theanine and synergy
Composure Chews contain 10.5 or 21 mg of L-theanine per chew, with respect to size. An amino acid that support calming and relaxation, L-theanine has been extensively researched for its abilities to reduce stress and behaviors associated with it. L-theanine is a derivative of glutamic acid—a neurotransmitter, and helps the body to product calming amino acids like dopamine and GABA.
In this formula, L-theanine and the Colostrum Complex work synergistically. Because the complex is bioactive, it allows the body to better potentiate a calming response. Studies on L-theanine show that dogs performed less anxiety-related behaviors, but without drowsiness or changes in personality.
Directions for Use
Shepard Laying Down
Thiamine’s role
Composure Chews contain 67 mg or 134 mg of thiamine (vitamin B1) per chew, with respect to chew size (mini or regular). When an animal is deficient in Thiamine, he can experience negative effects like mental confusion, muscle weakness or spasms, and nervousness. Thiamine has been shown to affect the central nervous system and to soothe and support relaxation.
Calm Cat
Sans Herbs
Made without herbal ingredients like Kava Kava, Valerian, St. John’s Wort, etc., Composure Chew’s ingredients do not cause addiction, drowsiness or impaired motor skills.
Whenever, Wherever
Composure for dogs is available in a chicken liver-flavor bite-sized chew and can be used either for immediate support or on a daily basis for ongoing support. Have a feline who needs to mellow out? Check out Composure Feline!

What is Pheromone Therapy?

The secret is a natural chemical produced by nursing dogs known as an appeasing pheromone, which reassures puppies that they are safe and secure. This pheromone reduces stress for both puppies and adult dogs by providing them with a sense of safety and security. By relaxing and comforting puppies and dogs, this pheromone helps control urges to bark, whine and destroy surroundings.

Masterton German Shepherds - Queensland Australia

Three generations Masterton Sables


My parents had Alsatians (as they were referred to in the olden days) back in Britain when I was only a child before moving to Australia and unfortunately the one we had in Britain was not allowed to come with us because of the Import Ban into Australia in those days.  That was a very difficult time for my parents having to leave her behind. 
Eventually my parents just had to get another one in Australia and there it all began.  Mum and Dad "dragging us kids along" to dog shows where of course we eventually got "the bug" and after all it was in the blood.  I was allowed to own my very first German Shepherd in the 60's and loved the obedience side of things rather than the showing so did obedience with her and actually took her through to CD which was a thrill for me only being very young in those days. 
Masterton Kennels was registered as a kennel name back in the 70's when along with my mother and sister the kennel name was decided after numerous rejections of other name choices by the NSWCCC.  On our 24th attempt the NSWCCC allowed us the name of "Masterton" which my Dad had picked after Steve Masterton had just won a major car race.  It was a case of we needed one more name for our list so we just threw it in and bingo we were allowed that one.  When my parents and I moved up to Queensland in the 80's the kennel name was transferred into my name. 
In 1985 we moved to Childers in Queensland.  What a beautiful countryside it was when seen for the first time.  There had been plenty of rain and everything was green.  It isn't always nice and green because there is never enough rain to maintain the lovely land.  This is what it looks like from above.
 
 
All puppies that are kept get campaigned in the show ring with the hope that they have the goods to become Australian Champions.  Numerous animals have achieved their Australian Championship titles with the most prestigious one being Crossfire Claim To Fame "Trapper" who became an Australian GRAND Champion.  Trapper actually being bred by my sister and was kindly given to me as a present.  What a wonderful gift.   All breeding stock have been x-rayed for hips and elbows and I have received the Gold Medal from the German Shepherd Club of Australia for breeding over 50 animals that have achieved their pass for hips.
