Wordless Wednesday: Pressure Vests - For DOGS!

Most of us already know about pressure vests, right? These vests - often weighted - provide proprioceptive feedback that (theoretically) calms and grounds kids with autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, and so on. Weighted blankets are a big thing, too.

Whenever an OT introduces this type of vest to my daughter, I can't help but wonder whether the benefits outweigh the fashion fail.

Well, never mind all that. Have you seen THIS? It's Thundershirt for your special needs pets, and I couldn't make this stuff up. For more information (and I assure you, I get nothing out of this click), check out www.thundershirt.com. Don't miss the free embroidery!
