Eighteen adult, healthy female dogs were distributed in two treatments groups: TP (n=9), placebo was administered and TC (n = 9), was administered Matricaria chamomilla CH12. Both treatments were administered during 15 days before the surgery and maintained for 24 hours postoperative. Behaviors were evaluated during social isolation. Serum cortisol concentration was evaluated before placebo or Matricaria chamomilla treatments administration (M0), 15 days after treatments dministration (M1), immediately after the surgery (M2) and 24 hours postoperative (M3). There was significant difference in the serum cortisol concentration between the groups immediately after the surgery (M1), with higher values in TP.
