Adaptil Spray Appeasing Pheromone Helps Reduce Fear And Stress In Puppies And Adult Dogs
15.72 mg/ml Synthetic Analogue of the Canine Appeasing Pheromone
A synthetic replica of the Dog Appeasing Pheromone that mother dogs emit to puppies to reassure them and reinforce the attachment with their mother
The pheromone is odourless to people and other animals and can only be perceived by dogs
Pheromones are detected by the vomeronasal organ, VNO, located in the palate of the mouth of a dog. From this point, receptors relay information to the emotional centres of the brain, which brings about physiological and behavioural changes for the dog
Detecting and responding to the pheromone is an automatic completely unconscious process that requires no control or previous learning by the dog
Specifically developed for dogs, is non-sedating and can be used in conjunction with other medication
Uses
Helps in reassuring dogs and puppies during experiences that could cause fear or stress – for example: car travel, air travel, going to the vet, being home alone, changes in the home, new visitors
Has a calming effect on adult dogs and puppies
Assists new pets to be calm, settled and feel secure when settling in with their new family
Helps to support anxious dogs and prevent fear and stress related behaviours – for example: destructive behaviours, barking, whining, house soiling, licking, chewing, pacing, shaking
Can be used alone or in combination with Adaptil Diffuser or Collar
