Show Notes
Every summer, fireworks light up the skies—and while we’re celebrating, our pets are often trembling with fear.
For dogs, cats, and especially horses, fireworks can feel like an unpredictable, invisible threat. The sudden loud bangs, high-frequency whistles, and vibration can trigger intense fear responses. But the good news is: we can prepare. In this episode, I’ll walk you through:
- Why animals respond the way they do to fireworks
- How to create a calm, secure environment before and during the noise
- The role of sound therapy in reducing stress
- And how to use the Pet Acoustics+ app and music products for dogs, cats, and horses to support your pet’s emotional well-being.
Let’s start by understanding the science.
