Adaptil Calm Refill for Dog

Adaptil Diffuser Refill helps to keep adult dogs and puppies calm during stressful situations.

How it works

The refill works with the Adaptil Diffuser Plug-in to release a synthetic version of the 'canine-appeasing hormone', a pheromone released by mother dogs. This has a reassuring and comforting effect on dogs of all ages, helping them to stay relaxed during events that could otherwise cause stress, such as being around new people or loud noises from fireworks. As well as keeping your pet happy, this product also reduces the chance of them indulging in destructive behaviour.

When to use it

Lots of events can trigger stress in dogs. Some common ones are firework displays, house moves and being left alone with new people. Sensitive dogs can even become anxious if their environment changes; if you buy them a new lead or rearrange the furniture, for example.

It's often easy to tell if your dog is stressed as they exhibit physical symptoms. Some big indicators include your pet cowering away from people, hiding, barking or whimpering for no discernible reason, going to the toilet inside and/or being destructive.

If you anticipate an upcoming event will stress out your dog, you should plug in the diffuser 24 hours before it is due to take place. The plug-in should be left on constantly in the room where your pet spends most of their time – even overnight. Make sure the diffuser isn't blocked by curtains or furniture; the hormone needs room to circulate and the vapour can leave a mark on fabrics if it comes into direct contact with them.

If you've never used Adaptil before, remember to pick up a plug-in and refill at the same time.

The refill lasts 4 weeks (roughly 30 days). 

Please note, this 3rd generation refill is compatible with 1st generation diffusers
