My dog has been taking omeprazole 20mg time-release (1/day) for four months due to digestive issues caused by a chicken protein allergy. Since switching to food without chicken, the digestive issues have resolved. Should I taper the omeprazole gradually to avoid a rebound gastric acid effect, and if so, how should I do it?

My 94-year-old mother owns a large, 7-year-old German Shepherd who is aggressive towards visitors and protective of my mother. He has a history of barking and throwing himself against windows and gates, and he is very anxious, especially about wearing a collar and leash. How can I address his anxiety and aggression to ensure that he can be safely managed in case of an emergency, such as my mother needing medical assistance?
