How to help your dog stay calm during fireworks season

How to help a dog that's scared of fireworks

If your dog is still stressed despite the calming changes in the home, then it’s time to see a qualified animal behaviourist for advice. A vet can refer you to a suitably qualified behaviourist for advice to help desensitise your dog to fireworks and teach them not to be scared. Speak to our vets through the Joii app anytime to book a behaviour appointment.
