In some dogs, mild fears and worries can develop into phobias or stress-related conditions.

Uses ADAPTIL® Collar helps control or prevent stress in puppies and adult dogs, helping them to deal with challenging situations such as: - Loud noises (thunderstorms, traffic, fireworks, etc.) - Staying in a kennel - Travelling - New situations (new home, additions to the family, vacation, etc.) The ADAPTIL® Collar has been proven to help promote learning in puppies and dogs and improve adaptation to our modern lifestyle.
