Fireworks may seem like a fun time for many of us, but for our beloved pets, they may trigger a very different response! This response may include restlessness, anxiety, and destructive behavior. You may be asking yourself: “how do I help my pet cope with fireworks?” And “is there a way to help them adapt to these kinds of stressful situations?” So in this blog post, we are here to answer those questions and more!
With the combination of loud noises from fireworks and the increase of unfamiliar faces, it is easy to understand why pets may become stressed or panicked during celebratory events. Pets have more sensitive hearing than humans, so they may hurt themselves if they are not in a controlled environment.
Preparing your pet can help provide comfort during stressful events.
For predictable sources of stress, like fireworks, preparing your pet with herbal supplements, training them to become desensitized to loud sounds, and crate training can help provide comfort during stressful events.
Closing the blinds in your home can help muffle the noise and reduce flashing lights that may startle your little one. You can also create a safe space in part of your home that has fewer windows or is quieter like a washroom. If your pet is not crate trained, they may find it calming to lay in the dry tub with towels and blankets to help them feel cozy and protected. It is best to test this prior to firework displays so that you do not stress your pet out even more if they do not feel comfortable there. Giving your pet a new toy to play with or chew on may help distract them.
NHV Lesstress is an herbal formulation that has a strong affinity with the nervous system and the immune system to help calm anxiety and excitability. It is a great supplement to use for various kinds of stress, like separation anxiety, fireworks, or even during illness (stress may cause conditions to worsen). Lesstress also helps add immune support. By reducing anxiety, many pet parents see a decrease in some of the negative behaviors observed, such as chewing, scratching, or urinating inside. NHV Lesstress is best suited for dogs.
If you have a cat that is experiencing anxiety, stress, or nervousness, NHV Matricalm would be a great natural support. It helps to relieve stress, aggression, and anxiety, similar to Lesstress but contains herbs that are more palatable to cats.
If you will be leaving your pet home alone during a celebration, we recommend adding a calming remedy (like Lesstress or Matricalm) to their daily meals days before the event. Preparing a quiet room with your pet’s crate or cozy blankets is also helpful for when they begin to feel overwhelmed, they will have a safe space to escape to. Make sure that your pet has up-to-date identification on them in case they get scared and try to escape. Make sure all the doors and windows are secure to prevent escapes and help muffle noise. Some pets also benefit from having calm music playing in their safe space.
We also recommend exercising your pet before you go out. Going for a longer walk than usual can have multiple benefits. It can help tire them out so they are more inclined to sleep and can help prevent them from having accidents in the house.
The best way is to anticipate what can cause stress and be prepared. Herbal supplements like Matricalm and Lesstress can be helpful supports in these kinds of situations. Natural calming supplements can be safely used short or long-term and are particularly important for pets who suffer from anxiety, excessive fear, and even excessive excitement.
Each type of stress requires a different approach to help your four-legged friend. Sometimes small actions like holding your furkiddo and putting them in a blanket or crate will solve the case. Sometimes, only a veterinarian can assess the source of stress and treat it. Always get in touch with your trusted veterinarian in these cases.
It’s great to know that there are ways to support your little one’s health naturally! Each of our care products is specially formulated for pets by a master herbalist and holistic vet and made using only the finest organic or wildcrafted ingredients.

Holistic Support and Pet Supplements for the Holidays
'Tis the season you say! Of course, the holidays are a time to celebrate, but with family dinners and get-togethers just around the corner, changes in your pet's daily routine can cause a lot of stress and anxiety. Hanging wires or seasonal decorations can entice your pet's curiosity, and they may gobble up something they weren't supposed to from the kitchen! Bringing home new plants like belladonna, mistletoe, or holly may be toxic to your pets, and may cause an upset tummy resulting in diarrhea from a few casual nibbles. We recommend creating safe spaces for your little one to relax, play and retreat to when the festivities become too much for them. If you're low on space, just opening up a few closets or having a few boxes with blankets or soft bedding inside will do wonders for your pet's mental wellbeing. For added support, we recommend our Holiday Essentials Kit that contains Matricalm (natural stress relief), Plantaeris (diarrhea support) and Yucca (anti-inflammatory and appetite support).
How the NHV Holiday Essentials Kit Supports A Relaxed Pet
With the new faces and changes, your dog, cat or pet’s heart rate and blood pressure may increase, and they may become irritated, excitable, and stressed. These symptoms may cause digestive upset and aggressive behavior. Matricalm contains five calming herbs that may help relax the nervous system, improve digestion and discourage aggressive or anxious behavior.
Dogs and cats of all ages can have very sensitive GI tracts (especially our feline friends), so if they accidentally munch on mistletoe, an ornament, chocolate or an edible arrangement, they will likely get an upset tummy and possibly diarrhea. Plantaeris is a gentle, fast-acting diarrhea remedy that contains herbs like barberry and mullein which help to relax muscle cramping and encourage digestion. Some foods, like chocolate, and plants can be toxic, please see an emergency vet right away if your pet has ingested toxic foods/plants.
Yucca is a nutritive superfood (rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein) and contains beneficial properties that help support the absorption of nutrients. Yucca also helps with overall digestive discomfort, and can even help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some pets.

Everyone knows what stress feels like, and we all know that too much stress can make us ill—high blood pressure, ulcers and even cancer can result from excessive stress.

Natural Dog Stress Reliever Supplemental Support
With a heightened sense of hearing and smell, small events that seem mundane to us can be terrifying and stressful for your dogs. Sometimes the stress is from the ride to the office, or maybe they are missing their human companions. This all contributes to changes in behavior like excessive panting, drooling, sweaty paws, dilated eyes, pacing, excessively shedding, or just completely shutting down. Some dogs become so stressed that it may lead to fear and aggression.
Other forms of stress in a dog’s life include:
In addition to panting, excessive barking/whining, chewing on themselves, shivering (when it’s not cold), panicked tail wagging, or tense muscles, stress can also cause GI tract issues such as diarrhea or vomiting.
The key to a healthy pup is balance. Too much or too little activity can be harmful, as well as too much or too little socialization. A balanced, clean diet also helps maintain the body and the mind. If your dog is susceptible to stress, you can use calming herbs like those found in NHV Lesstress. This formulation gently acts on the nervous system and immune system to provide a natural dog stress reliever.
How NHV’s Natural Dog Stress Relief Eases Stress and Anxiety
For stressful experiences such as separation anxiety, the loss or addition of a furry friend, special events (eg. fireworks) and illness (stress can cause conditions to worsen), the natural (non-addictive) sedative properties of Lesstress gently relax the nervous system and endocrine system. Ingredients like Chamomile, Passion Flower and Lemon Balm work to calm nerves while ingredients like Reishi, Eleuthero, and Echinacea Angustifolia are very beneficial for helping the body adapt to stress and illness and stimulate healthy immune function.
