The Dog Calming Cap is a behavior management aid that is designed to
lessen a dog's anxiety or aggression in high-stress situations.
The Cap’s single-panel sheer fabric window makes the dog's vision indistinct,
which reduces the visual stimulus and enables the dog to remain calm.
Originally developed to make car trips tolerable for an agitated dog, the Cap
serves to assist pet owners and professionals in a variety of situations such
as: vet and groomer visits, in home nail trims, and desensitization and
separation anxiety programs.
Available in four sizes. Color: Gray.

Easy to place on the dog, as it is worn just like a jacket. (See easy-to-follow video above to left..) It works by applying a warming hugging
like feeling to the dog’s body.

What causes anxiety in dog's to fear of storms, fireworks, and other noises?
It is unknown why some pets and dogs become afraid of noises such as thunder and fireworks; it is a common problem in dogs, but less so
in cats.
The fear can soon become a phobia, which is defined as a persistent, excessive, and irrational fear response.
In the case of thunderstorms, pets may also be fearful of storm-associated events such as a change in barometric pressure, lightning,
electrostatic disturbances, and even smells associated with the storms. Noise phobia anxiety in dogs can include fear of thunderstorms,
fireworks, gunshots, and even the sound of birds.
A recent study has found that certain breeds of dogs have an above average risk of developing noise phobia anxiety. These include some
of the working and sporting breeds such as Collies, German Shepherds, Beagles, and Basset Hounds. This survey was quite small,
however, and more research needs to be done in this area. The study also found that dogs who had separation anxiety were more likely
to also have noise and thunderstorm phobias.
A noise phobia may be traced to a particular bad experience of a noise, but often, no triggering event can be ascertained. In almost all
instances, the fear of noises and storms escalates, worsening with each exposure. Soon the pet may become fearful of similar sounds or
events associated with the noise. For example, a pet afraid of thunder may also become afraid of rain, or a dog afraid of gunshots may
show fear at the mere sight of a hunting rifle.
The owner's attitude can influence the severity of the fear. For instance, if owners themselves are nervous during storms, noise phobias in
their pets may occur more often or become more severe. Similarly, if the owner attempts to overly comfort the animal, the animal interprets
it as confirming there really is something to be afraid of. The over petting or comforting is really positive reinforcement of an undesirable
behavior.
