Summer is almost here, and often that means fireworks, thunderstorms, and other loud noises that can make your pets anxious. In this episode, Carter Easler shares some of his best tips for helping dogs with their fear of loud noises, both by calming them down in the moment and by training them to not be so afraid in the future. Carter also talks about some of the most common remedies pet parents tend to use — like Benadryl and thunder jackets — and explains why CBD, herbs, and adaptogens are a better option.
