Behaviour and Mental Wellbeing

Just like us, dogs can experience stress, anxiety, and fear—and it can affect their overall wellbeing. These feelings may be shaped by their genetics, early experiences, and even their role within the family. That’s why our PAW behaviour range is designed to support your dog’s emotional health. Developed by vets, it helps reduce stress-related behaviours and supports a healthy nervous system so your dog can feel more relaxed, secure, and happy.

Behaviour and Mental Wellbeing by Pure Animal Wellbeing (PAW)

Pets experience stress, fear and uncertainty just like we do. Loud noises, changes in routine, visitors, travel, separation and new environments can all affect their behaviour and overall wellbeing. At Pure Animal Wellbeing, our behavioural support range is developed by Australian veterinarians, inspired by nature, and supported by scientific evidence to help maintain emotional balance, support calm behaviour, and promote a relaxed state of mind in cats and dogs. 

Whether your pet needs daily calm support or extra help during stressful moments, our gentle, easy to use formulations make it simple to care for their mental wellbeing in a proactive, natural way.

Choosing the Right Behaviour Support 

Your pet’s size, personality and stress triggers can help guide your choice. 

  • Choose Complete Calm® for gentle, daily behavioural support in cats, small dogs and medium to large dogs. 
  • Choose Advanced Calm® for pets needing additional support during heightened stress or for specific situations. 
  • Choose Chew formats for treat style daily routines. 
  • Choose Sprinkle capsules for discreet meal time use, perfect for picky pets or pets with inconsistent appetite during stressful times. 

Always follow product labels and seek veterinarian advice if your pet has a diagnosed behavioural condition or is on medication. 

Easy Routines for a Calmer Home 

Behaviour support works best when paired with: 

  • Consistent routines 
  • Gentle training and positive reinforcement 
  • Predictable meal times 
  • Environmental enrichment 
  • Slow introductions to new experiences 
  • Regular exercise 
  • A cosy, safe place to rest 

Supportive nutrition and behavioural care often work hand in hand to help pets feel secure and confident. 

Helpful Behaviour & Wellbeing Guidance 

How do I know if my pet may benefit from calm support? 
Common signs include restlessness, pacing, vocalising, hiding, trembling, changes in appetite or sensitivity to noise. 

Can I give these supplements every day? 
Yes, when used as directed. Many families use Complete Calm® daily to maintain balanced behaviour. 

How should I introduce behavioural supplements? 
Introduce slowly, follow the label, and observe your pet’s response over the first one to two weeks. 

Will my pet like the taste? 
Complete Calm® chews are designed to be palatable. Advanced Calm® capsules can be sprinkled over food. 

Should I change my pet’s diet? 
Calming supplements are supportive nutrition, not a replacement for balanced meals. Combine with quality food and ongoing veterinary care. 

When should I seek vet advice? 
If your pet has severe behavioural concerns, sudden changes in behaviour, or is on medication.
