Focus Oral Calming Liquid

Overview

Sullivan’s Focus Oral Calming Liquid is a natural herbal calming product in liquid form, giving it more dosing flexibility than paste products. At 5–10ml per application for sheep/goats, it can be administered orally by drench or mixed into a small amount of feed. Effects last approximately 12 hours per application, and it can be re-dosed as needed — making it more versatile for multi-day shows or situations requiring sustained calming throughout a show day. Specific herbs are not publicly disclosed in retailer listings; Sullivan Supply describes it as “a blend of natural ingredients completely safe for all animals.” Available in 8 oz, 16 oz, and 32 oz sizes.

Show Circuit Use

How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It

Focus is Sullivan’s more flexible calming option compared to the Show Sheep Paste — the liquid format allows precise smaller doses, and the 12-hour effect window with re-dosing capability makes it practical for two-day shows where an animal needs consistent calming management rather than a single show-day dose. For lambs that are consistently difficult to manage throughout a show — not just for one class — Focus provides sustained calming coverage.

Paste vs. Liquid choice:

• Show Sheep Paste → single-dose convenience; ideal for a single class; one tube lasts multiple shows
• Focus Liquid → flexible re-dosing for multi-day or multi-class shows; more precise volume control

Phase Protocols

Show Day / Multi-Day Shows

• Rate: 5–10ml orally or in minimal feed, 1–2 hours before each class
• Re-dose: As needed, up to every ~12 hours
• Purpose: Sustained calming for difficult-to-manage lambs through extended show periods

Stacking Protocols

Focus + Aspirnfre: Liquid calming (Focus) + physical comfort (Aspirnfre) = comprehensive show management. These two products cover different mechanisms and don’t conflict.

Focus + Show Sheep Paste: Generally would choose one calming product OR the other rather than stacking both — the liquid Focus is more versatile; the paste is more convenient for a single class.
