When are Dog Ear Defenders Right for Your Dog?
If your dog’s quality of life is being compromised because they’re noise-sensitive, ear defenders are a necessity. Dogs who jump at the slightest sound, cower during storms, or get spooked by a passing HGV, will really benefit from wearing them. They help dogs who are finding it difficult living near noisy traffic, or agricultural land where bird scarers are used, for example. Many dogs find fireworks very stressful (so Fireworks Night is a nightmare for everyone). In all these cases, dog ear defenders can make a significant difference to your dog’s wellbeing and peace.
How will Ear Defenders Help Your Dog?
Ear defenders muffle loud sounds and reduce noise exposure - so, for example, bangs or fireworks will no longer overstimulate or distress your dog. They are still able to hear a whistle, it’s just that certain levels of noise are filtered. These are designed to protect your dog’s sensitive hearing from loud environments, similar to a child wearing ear defenders at a concert.
These will transform the quality of life for dogs of a nervous disposition, who get terrified or reactive due to loud noise, or for any dog who’s normally OK but who specifically finds Fireworks Night a nightmare.
How to Pick Dog Ear Defenders?
