Zoundz Launches Science Backed and Animal Behaviorist Prescribed Therapeutic Programs to Help Dogs and Cats Stay Anxiety Free This Halloween

Zoundz – the leading sound therapeutics solution for the treatment of pet anxiety – announces the release of new tools specifically designed, and proven, to alleviate the anxiety caused in many dogs and cats during the Halloween season. The new tools, which can be accessed in the Zoundz app from either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, include desensitization sounds that will prepare pets for the night’s festivities and therapeutic sounds that will soothe pet’s nerves when they hear scary noises or encounter strangers at the door.

Zoundz has been available as a consumer app for pet parents right on their smartphone since 2021. Millions of families struggle with the impact of anxiety on the behavior of their dog – like barking, jumping, nipping, shaking, insomnia, or fasting – or cat – like scratching, meowing, hiding, restlessness, or biting, among other symptoms. Zoundz addresses the root cause that underlies these often-troubling behaviors without pharmaceuticals, invasive medical procedures, or physical restraints.

“Nearly 80 percent of my patients struggle with the noise from Halloween and other loud festivities,” said Dr. Shannon Gregoire. “I’ve been encouraging clients to play Zoundz in their homes when needed, as a medication-free tool to reduce their pets stress level and I’ve heard wonderful feedback about the calming effects it has on dogs and cats as they struggle with unfamiliar and scary situations. I am thrilled that Zoundz has developed these new tools to help the nation’s dogs and cats as their owners celebrate Halloween and beyond.”

“We’re thrilled to announce the release of these new sound therapeutic tools that both mask incessant doorbell rings and soothe the nerves of dogs and cats,” said Derrick Garrett, CEO of Zoundz. “Our team of animal behaviorists and composers began working on this almost a year ago and it is now ready for general release to dogs and cats across the United States just in time for Halloween.”

Zoundz is offering a free 14-day trial on the app to pet parents and can be instantly accessed in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Derrick Garrett and Dr. Shannon Gregoire are available for an interview about keeping pets calm and anxiety free this Halloween. To schedule, please contact David Berger at Dberger@Zoundzforpets.com.
