With the storms, fireworks and hot air balloons – we called Sage, from the Calgary Humane Society, for tips to help your pooch stay calm and safe.

1) Mute the outside noise by putting Fido in a basement or windowless bathroom with a TV, radio or fan.  At the Humane Society they play “Through a Dog’s Ear” for the pups. You can purchase the calming music through iTunes.

Have a listen to “Through a Dog’s Ear” here:

 

 

2) Invest in a Thundershirt – it’s like a compression bandage for your dog to help them feel secure.

3) Give them a chew toy for distraction.

4) Keep your dog busy with lots of snuggles and fun games.
