orthopedic dog beds<\/a> work great for old dogs.<\/span><\/p>\nHow to do it right<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\nFirst, it would work best if you get the dog to settle down on its bed because you don’t want your dog falling asleep on a cold floor. Then, I\u2019d prefer that you choose the music that you like since pets tend to respond more to the music their owners like but it has to be some slow music. It helps if it’s music you’ve listened to before in the presence of the dog so that the music and your comforting presence will relieve it of anxiety. For agitated pets, I\u2019d prefer you use soft music which has a slow but steady rhythm. This also works well for pets with arthritis to calm their nerves and muscles.<\/span><\/p>\nYou just turn the music on and wait for 15 to 20 minutes and see the effects. From what I know, most pets love classical music especially Mozart. Southwest and soft jazz with nature sounds can also be a good pick to calm your pets down. The music you play should be melodic–Feel free to put the music all day long especially when your pet is stressed.<\/span><\/p>\nLoud music on the other hand can be used to cheer up your pet after a long day or if your dog is depressed. Rock music for example is perfect for such scenarios.<\/span><\/p>\nThe type of music you play to your pet on a daily basis, reminds your pet of your presence. This helps more-so when you are away from home and you don\u2019t want your pet to feel lonely.<\/span><\/p>\nHow to setup the music<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\nYou would buy a small portable speaker or just a small radio than can support SD cards. There are many options for small portable speakers in the market that are rechargeable using USB cables. Thanks to the advancement in technology, some of these speakers are Bluetooth-enabled making it easier to play music from your phone; you don’t necessarily have to be in the same room with the dog.<\/span><\/p>\nOnce you get your hands some quality speakers, put them strategically near your dog\u2019s bed and turn the music on. You can play the music for as long as your pet is asleep or till it catches sleep then lower the volume and eventually turn the music off. If you are unsure of which type of music to play you can search online where you can get hundreds of soft music to soothe your pet to sleep.<\/span><\/p>\nWhy would a dog need music to sleep?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\nMusic is very important even to humans. It plays a some role in maintaining ones mental health by relieving us of stress and lowering the secretion of not so healthy hormones. In dogs however, it can be used to relieve anxiety especially at night when the dog finds it difficult to sleep. Music has a comforting nature to dogs just as it has on humans. <\/span><\/p>\nSo, what better way to help your dog recuperate after going through stressful situation if music can even help ease the pain pets go through while under medication.<\/span><\/p>\nIt also helps pets to calm down by creating that happy and peaceful environment for them.
