Take a chill pill

Your presence can be effective in calming your anxious dog down but what about the times when you are not around? Or, what about an especially taxing festive occasion like Diwali, when a dog struggles to cope with the sound of bursting firecrackers. You can invest in the Pet Tunes Bluetooth Speaker that comes with pre-loaded comforting songs for canines. This would ensure a relaxed time for your pet even when you are away. The speaker also comes in handy for pet parents trying to help their dogs with separation anxiety.

A sniff to remember

Are you in awe of all the things your dog can do with its muzzle? From marking you with its scent as a warning sign for other dogs to responding to nose targeting for touch and tricks, canines use their muzzles as the most sensitive part of their body. To celebrate your pet's individuality, you can customise a dog nose impression necklace. You might be the one flaunting it, but your pet reads the signs.
