Is your pup afraid of fireworks? Here's how you can help keep them calm this Fourth with tips from MSU VetMed! 👇 🩺 Take your pet to the vet. If your dog is afraid of fireworks, the first step is to have your veterinarian evaluate him or her, especially if your dog’s noise sensitivity is relatively new. 🏠 Create a “safe haven” in your home with a secure door or gate, preferably away from outside windows or doors. 🎶 Play classical music or a white noise machine to help reduce stress by creating a relaxing environment. 🦴 Find a food your pet will love. Sit with your pet and feed him with each boom. This is to help your dog make a positive association with the noises for the future. 🎧 Consider noise-canceling headphones to muffle the sounds and further reduce noise sensitivities.
