Sound therapy for pet anxiety month

March is Pet Anxiety Month, and I believe this is something most pet owners have dealt with at some point.

We have five adorable pooches all together, three are rescues with varying degrees of anxiety due to abusive, neglectful pasts. However, our younger pug, YumYum has been with us since he was 8 weeks old, and although he’s only ever known a loving, calm lifestyle, suffers with severe anxiety. So, it’s clear to me that pet anxiety can affect all animals depending on their character traits, as well as their history.

YumYum is always on edge, and his separation anxiety is through the roof. For many years we have searched for solutions to help him cope, but sadly nothing has really worked, until last year when we discovered Sound Oasis.

Sound Oasis has been the global leader in sleep and sound therapy products since 1993, creating revolutionary sound machines and accessories to improve their customers quality of life. I’m a huge fan and have seen such great results using their sound machine, tinnitus relief machine and sleep mask, so naturally I had to try to device with pets in mind.

The pet sound therapy device with Bluetooth has been nothing short of a miracle worker in our home, bringing peace and harmony to my pack which in turn brings me so much joy.

This unique Bluetooth sound machine was developed to help your pet relax and sleep better by creating a comforting sound environment made just for them. Perfect for helping pets deal with separation anxiety, new homes, thunderstorms or neighbourhood noise. With 20 built in sounds, specially composed for effectiveness, you just turn it on, select the desired sound and volume and relax. The machines are so tiny they fit in the palm of your hand, which makes them ultra transportable around the house or if you travel a lot with your pets like we do.

The sounds soothe the whole pack, and they are notably more relaxed and far less anxious, and I’ve really enjoyed trying out the different sounds to see which is the best fit for our fur family. Ocean Surf seems to be the current favourite and Its calming for the entire household, humans included.

We have also been taking advantage of the free Sound Oasis Pet therapy app, which allows you to control the device remotely and even layer sounds, and there really is nothing more comforting and soothing than the sound of the ocean with a subtle heartbeat layered into it.

The sound Oasis pet therapy device has become a natural part of our daily routine. If there’s loud noises outside, if we need to leave them alone, and every night before bed, we simply pop the device on and watch the good vibes unfold!

This Bluetooth sound machine is a game-changer for managing pet anxiety using white noise as a powerful device to calm your pooches without any need for medication or scary vet visits.

My whole pack are sleeping better than ever before, and even little YumYum seems less on guard and more inclined to relax without anxiety dominating his life.

If you’re looking for a safe, simple, peaceful way to tackle pet anxiety then we really cannot recommend sound oasis enough!
