Rescue Pets Zen + Transit is a grain-free, duck-flavored treat-based supplemental food for dogs. Chicory inulin and postbiotics support digestive comfort, while valerian promotes a relaxed state, along with chamomile, lemon balm, and Bach Flower Remedies.
Rescue Pets Zen + Transit is a dietary supplement for dogs, available in soft duck-flavored treats. Each 3-gram treat combines three herbs—chamomile (75 mg), lemon balm (50 mg), and valerian root extract (50 mg), with chicory inulin—a prebiotic—and a postbiotic derived from Lactobacillus plantarum. The Original Bach Flower RESCUE blend rounds out the formula. The package is labeled “grain-free”: the ingredient list does not include any grains, though it does not specify the source of the starch.
The “Digestive Health” component of the formula relies on chicory inulin, which makes up 3% of the treat, and the postbiotic, at 0.6%. With these two ingredients, the treat promotes the dog’s digestive comfort. It is particularly useful during a diet change, when the dog is switching from one kibble to another.
The “Zen” aspect is driven by botanicals. According to the manufacturer, valerian root extract promotes a relaxed state, complemented by chamomile and lemon balm. The situations it’s designed for are the ones we can see coming: a trip, a stormy night or fireworks, a visit to the groomer or the vet.
The amount is adjusted based on weight, making the treat suitable for dogs of all sizes, including puppies 8 weeks and older. It should be given between meals, as a reward. To compare with collars, sprays, and diffusers, check out our solutions for pet stress and behavior.
We recommend using it in combination with Beaphar Premium Dry No-Rinse Shampoo Spray. For dogs that get anxious about baths, this dry shampoo cleans the coat without water or rinsing. It contains none of the herbs or fibers found in the treat formula: the two products complement each other without overlapping. Like any spray, it makes a slight noise: test it first from a distance from your dog.

A dietary supplement for dogs and puppies over 8 weeks old. Daily amount: dogs under 10 kg, 1 treat; 10 to 20 kg, 2 treats; over 20 kg, 3 treats. Treats can be given between meals. Always provide fresh water.

Packaging
Bag of 60 treats, each weighing 3 g, for a total of 180 g. Depending on the dog’s weight, this supply lasts from 20 days for a dog weighing over 20 kg to 60 days for a dog weighing less than 10 kg.
Before an upcoming event, try it out on a quiet day first: this will let you know if your dog accepts the treat and how he reacts. On the big day, incorporate the treat into a routine your dog is already familiar with, rather than introducing it as something new in the middle of a car ride or a thunderstorm.
When switching dog food, don’t change everything at once: introduce the new food gradually and keep the same amount of treats. If there are changes in stool consistency, it’ll be easier to pinpoint the cause. In a multi-dog household, distribute treats separately, based on each dog’s weight.
How long does it take for Rescue Pets Zen + Transit to take effect on my dog?
