Since 2008, thousands of veterinarians and dog trainers worldwide have recommended the slow and simplified classical compositions of Through a Dog’s Ear. The breakthrough research behind TADE shows that the canine nervous system is extremely sensitive to sound — and that special arrangements of classical music have a profound soothing impact on anxious dogs. This clinically tested canine music is formulated for your dog’s calm behavior, as well as your discerning ear.
Dogs all over the world quiver when we humans send off fireworks (in dog language, unexplained booms of unimaginable terror). A night of fireworks can be an incredibly distressing, debilitating problem not only for dogs, but also for their owners, who feel powerless to help.
Since we can’t quiet the neighbors, we must re-train, or prevent the fear response with re-conditioning. This groundbreaking desensitization tool will teach your dog the booming sounds of fireworks are nothing scary, and will help to gradually reduce your dog’s fear when exposed to these sounds.
The Fireworks music includes a verbal introduction by Victoria and sounds of fireworks (mild, moderate, and heavy) set against the backdrop of the Through a Dog’s Ear clinically-tested calming music. An adjoining booklet contains Victoria’s positive reinforcement training protocol. The goal is to re-frame your dog’s perception of the sounds of fireworks and associate these sounds with a calm feeling.
When used properly and implemented in conjunction with the included behavioral modification protocols included, you can rehabilitate your firework-phobic dog or prevent firework-phobia from ever developing in younger dogs.
About Canine Noise Phobia Series
The Canine Noise Phobia series (CNP) is an innovative desensitization training tool that combines three distinctive elements for the treatment and prevention of sound-sensitivities and noise-phobias:
- Progressive sound effects (distant/close)
- Specially-designed psychoacoustic music (Through a Dog’s Ear)
- Reward-based reinforcement protocols (Victoria Stilwell, Positively.com)
CNP can be used in two distinctive ways:
- Habituation: To help prevent your puppy or dog from
developing fears or phobias to fireworks, thunderstorms,
and city sounds. - Desensitization: To help your dog overcome an already-
established fear or phobia of fireworks, thunderstorms,
and city sounds.
Training protocols for Fireworks have been created by Victoria Stilwell, star of Animal Planet’s It’s Me or the Dog, and author of Train Your Dog Positively.
