Sure, fireworks 🎆 are exciting, they’re beautiful to look at, and they make us happy. But to a lot of dogs, they’re anything but fun.
In fact, to them, they can be loud, scary, and an absolute nightmare 😔.
Many dogs experience serious anxiety when hearing fireworks, especially if they don’t tolerate loud noises.
If this is the case for your best friend, don’t worry; we’re here to help 💪!
Both Sarah and I have lived with dogs that were sensitive to fireworks, and we had to work through their fear little by little until they didn’t faze them anymore.
How did we do it?
We answer this question in today’s episode of Dog Sense 🙌!
So, if you want to learn the best way to desensitize your dog friend to fireworks, how you can use music and white noise to help your pup, and why you should take your desensitization practice outside, this episode is for you 👇!
