The Sounds of Summer Can Be Scary...
Posted on 06.24.2022Summer can be a very exciting time, but can also make your pets too excitable. The Fourth of July with all of it's sound and fury during firework displays can make your pet very anxious or even scared. In fact, more pets run away or are reported lost during this time of year and our local shelters see an uptick in new admissions. If your pet suffers from anxiety caused by loud noises such as fireworks, thunderstorms, or even large vehicles, Treats Unleashed has some calming solutions that can help.
Super Snouts CBD - Using water soluable compounds, the CBD in Super Snouts chews absorbs up to 8x faster than oil based CBD products - meaning your pet can be soothed faster. Our go-to recommendation this time of year is the Chill+Out chews that also incorporate chamomile, tryptophan, and passionflower for maximum calming capabilities. But Super Snouts also have a fully functional line for everyday pet life, such as Hemp+Joint for joint support and easing inflammation, and Hemp+Shrooms for immune system balance. Super Snouts are available in-store only.
Earth Animal Tinctures - Treats Unleashed recently added the Earth Animal Remedies for Pets tincture line. These are made with natural ingredients, such as flower essences and wild herbs, and are safe for dogs and cats. Earth Animal Remedies can be added to your pet's drinking water or on a direct to skin application. These are a great, non-CBD option too. For pet anxiety, we recommend the Calmness and Emotional Balance remedies. Calmness can help balance normal levels of stress, while Emotional Balance can help with more severe stress. Earth Animal recommends using these products in tandem to boost their calming support.
The best advice we can give pet parents before July 4th or an upcoming stormfront is to use your calming aid before you need it. See how your pet responds under normal conditions before their anxiety is heightened. Find what works best with your pet by talking to a Treats Unleashed team member today!
