CBD. CBD products, including CBD oil, are growing in popularity with canines. Proven effective in combating anxiety in humans, CBD is derived from the cannabis plant, though it won’t get your dog high. Most contain only negligible amounts of THC, and isolated extracts contain none at all. If you own an anxious cat or a highly-strung dog, the chances are that somebody has probably already suggested to you that you use a plug-in pheromone diffuser to help to chill your pet out, and help them to feel more at ease. Air fresheners and strong odors can bother pets (or even stress them) due to their heightened sensitivity to smells. It is recommended to remove any strong home fragrance before plugging in an ADAPTIL ® Diffuser as it may restrict the pheromone detection by your pet. Interactive toys. Some dog toys are great for anxiety, like plushies and puzzles. These work by comforting your dog or distracting her, particularly during high-stress times such as storms. Canine anxiety is more common than you’d think, with most dogs experiencing it at least once in life.

Adaptil for dogs is designed to help dogs to cope with separation anxiety and phobias, such as a fear of thunder or fireworks. The DAP pheromone is designed to mimic the naturally produced pheromones that nursing dams use to comfort their litter and make them feel safe and secure.

At least 24 hours before the puppy or dog faces the new surroundings, plug in an ADAPTIL ® Diffuser at floor level in the room where the dog will sleep and spend the most time. The diffuser should be switched on continuously for at least 4 weeks and the refill replaced as required.While animal pheromones are naturally occurring, their chemical structures are well understood by the scientific community, which has led to the ability to synthetically produce synthesised artificial pheromone compounds to mimic the action of naturally occurring pheromones. Plug-in diffusers Combining ADAPTIL ® Diffuser with ADAPTIL ® Collar or ADAPTIL ® Spray may provide optimal results for dogs showing multiple fears in different situations (see table below). Consult your veterinarian for more information. The ADAPTIL ® Diffuser will be fully functioning within 24 hours of plugging in. The effect on the dog will depend on the nature, extent and duration of the problem for which ADAPTIL ® is used. This all can depend on what your dog is used too/ comfortable with, what age they are (can they hold their toileting?) etc. You need to judge this on your dog, there is no set rule for all.

Because it is completely safe, there’s no reason you shouldn’t try Adaptil with your own pet. If may not work on your specific pet, but it may be exactly what you need to help your pet chill out.

Research data

Nursing mother dogs naturally produce an appeasing pheromone. This pheromone provides reassurance to the puppies, helping them to feel safe and secure when encountering new experiences and unknown environments. Clinical studies have demonstrated that a synthetic analogue of the dog appeasing pheromone (D.A.P. ®) helps provide reassurance and comfort to puppies and dogs of all ages.
