HOWND Keep Calm Routine
Follow these five steps to relieve stress and ease anxiety in your dog.
1. Plan Some Exercise
So around Diwali, Halloween and Bonfire Night ensure both you and your dog stay active during the day. Doing so will help relieve any stress your dog is feeling in their body, while increasing their tiredness (making it easier for them to go to sleep) in the evenings.
Good starting points include strolls around your local park, or perhaps a game of catch in a large open space. Most activities will suffice – just as long as it lasts for a minimum of 30 minutes and it’s something your dog enjoys,
At Least 30 Minutes of Physical Activity
2. Wash With Keep Calm HOWND Range
Both Cruelty Free certified products use a combination of lavender and patchouli essential oils helps relax adult dogs (and their owners!) and are perfect for pets that get anxious and stressed from fireworks and unfamiliar faces. Keep Calm Body Mist is particularly useful to keep with you during the day, as a couple of sprays can help calm your dog in various scenarios. Here are a few suggestions:
- Spray and gentle rub into your dog’s coat after washing.
- Spray onto your dog’s bed.
- Spray in the car and around the house.
Our shampoo and body mist also help repel insects thanks to a delicate blend of rosemary and cedarwood essential oils, which are also known for their antibacterial properties. Both have a pH-balanced formula containing wheat protein, oatmeal, argan oil and aloe vera leaf juice – making a dog’s skin feel nourished, while conditioning the fur to make it easy to brush.
3. Just Act Normal
For example, during a nearby fireworks display, it’s important you talk to your four-legged friend in exactly the same way as you would normally. Doing this will reassure your dog that they are safe – which in turn can help them stay relaxed and happy.
If you do this consistently, your dog will become less anxious when they hear fireworks. So keep smiling – no matter how loud those fireworks are!

4. Distract With Games
