Episode 40– Noise Fear and Phobias – What you need to know!
Did you know that up to 50% of our pet dogs suffer from noise sensitivity, fear of noises or even noise phobias?
That is a HUGE amount and most of them go undiagnosed and untreated. And that means that many of our pets suffer, either on a daily basis or during specific noise events such as fireworks and thunderstorms.
Cats are likely also affected by noises, but because they tend to hide in these circumstances, pet caregivers might not notice this, and they are even less likely to get the help they might need.
In this episode, Dr Katrin chats about:
· The different diagnoses when it comes to noises - is it a phobia, fear or sensitivity?
· The signs your dog might show if they are fearful of noises
· Why household electrical appliances are important
· How dogs hear differently from humans and what that means for them
· How we can manage the environment to help
· Counter-conditioning to noises
· Supplements, pheromones and medications
Here are some of the papers Dr Katrin mentioned in this episode:
1. An open-label prospective study of the use of l-theanine (Anxitane) in storm-sensitive client-owned dogs, Amy L. Pike, Debra F. Horwitz, Heidi Lobprise, JVB, 2015, Vol 10:4, pp324-331, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jveb.2015.04.001
2. Dexmedetomidine oromucosal gel for noise associated acute anxiety and fear in dogs—a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, Vet Record, 2017, M. Korpivaara, K. Laapas, M. Huhtinen, B. Schöning, K. Overall
