Fear Free

USING THE UNIVERSAL DESIGN METHOD WITH YOUR PETS

The same way humans get anxious when seeing the dentist – because we know what’s coming. That happens to pets too. Ways we can prepare them for what would normally be an anxious experience is by putting on calming music, putting lavender onto their paws, putting CBD oil into their water and other ways.
