Pet Success Story - Noise Phobia - "I wanted to let you know that I have used Peppermint Oil on your dog's paws for thunderphobia, and it DOES really work! I have used other things, but the best results were with Peppermint Oil on the paws. Both my golden boy and my Aussie have severe 'noise' phobia, and the Peppermint Oil really does the trick. Besides, my carpets also smell pretty good where they walk!" Carol Ressler
