Naturally, puppies and adult dogs stay together and exchange messages through the air, known as pheromones. These calming messages are released by mothers during nursing and also through the ears of adult dogs. ADAPTIL transmits this calming and security pheromone to your dog, which we cannot transmit ourselves, helping to improve their well-being and adapt to stressful situations. How long does it take to see results? Many dog ​​owners begin to see results within seven days. However, every dog ​​is unique. Depending on how long the signs have been present and their severity, it may take longer to see improvement. The recommended usage time for ADAPTIL Calm Diffuser is at least one month.

If your dogs problems are not stress-related, the ADAPTIL Calm Collar will not help. If your dogs problems are due to a lack of exercise or training, such as hyperactivity or over-excitement, the ADAPTIL will not help compensate for this need. If your dog does not have enough stimulation in its environment, the ADAPTIL does not provide it and will not help. If your dog is having accidents inside the house in inappropriate places due to a lack of training or for medical reasons, the ADAPTIL will not solve this problem. It is essential to consult your veterinarian to rule out any underlying medical issues. The ADAPTIL will not help and should never be used in cases of aggression towards people or other dogs and puppies. In this case, we strongly recommend that you seek advice from your veterinarian or a behavior specialist.
