Hi @IvoryCedar, welcome! This is a very interesting situation. Is the information in your drug history signature about your dog or you?
I would think that tapering in a monthly Hyperbolic manner would be the preferable way as it is in humans. We recommend Hyperbolic tapering here at Taper Community - monthly reductions of no more than 10% of the previous month's dose. The reductions will therefore get smaller and smaller as time goes on. The greatest changes in receptor occupancy happen at very low doses, so tapering this way is safer and easier on the brain. I can't think that animal brains would be any different.
Hopefully some other members can jump in and offer advice too, especially ones who have had a similar experience with their pet.
