It was bulky and awkward, but it worked. Emma stopped being jumpy, and settled down and got comfortable for take off. Our founder was wearing her own Noise-Cancelling headphones, so she decided to try to hold the headset to Emma's ears. This happens on most flights, and because it is a loud noise, Emma jumps a little every time it happens. During the planes loading process, the stewardess on the airplane started slamming the overheard baggage compartments to get them to shut over large bags. One day, while we were traveling for our old corporate research and development job, an idea popped into our founders head. We tried calming oils and treats, doggie shirts, playing soothing music, nothing worked for Emma. The Journal Of American Veterinary Medical Association reported 30% of dogs suffer from some type of storm anxiety and 86% of dogs with thunder phobia develop separation anxiety. Alarms, Motorcycles, Thunderstorms, Fireworks, etc. Like many dogs, Emma is scared of all kinds of loud noises. With my invention of a noise-cancelling headset for dogs, we will reduce the number of dogs that run away due to all kinds of loud noises. Dogs being scared by loud noises is one of the top four reasons dogs run away. According to Lost Pet Statistics, 14% of the 63 million dog owning households in America will run away within a 5 year span. There is a 30% increase of lost pets during the weeks surrounding the 4th of July. The statistics about dogs that run away during the 4th of July are high and very sad. Thankfully, she had been taken into a garage by a neighbor to ride out the rest of the firework show. After what seemed like hours, we found our furbaby, Emma, down the street. In a panic, we all set off in the direction that Emma ran. Everyone's hearts stop, and we all feel weak and helpless. All of our family members start to yell, "EMMA" the dog's name. It takes us a second to realize, another dog has just ran away due to the loud 4th of July firework show. Then, at ground level, a white streak enters and exits the field of vision in the blink of an eye. The sound from the fireworks reverberates in our ears while our eyes drink in the night's wonder. Their reflections dance along water across the bay. It can be helpful to protect dogs ears from loud noises comng from planes, cars, etc.Ĭolored explosions drip across the night sky. We help plenty of pilot pet parents protect their dogs hearing with PAWNIX. That means that loud firework shows become the loudness level of a dyson vacuum, or a running dishwasher. When dogs wear PAWNIX, the decibel level of loud noises is reduced up to 30 decibels. It takes any loud noise and reduces the volume. PAWNIX Noise-Cancelling headset works for many other noises, not just thunderstorms and fireworks. We also bring peace of mind to many pet parents who want to provide their own dog hearing protection, and will share in their own words. We no longer feel helpless to comfort Emma, as she is no longer reacting the same way to the loud noises, which brings us peace of mind. This allows everybody to enjoy mother nature's beautiful thunderstorms together. Our other company dogs also see Emma put on her headset, and they come running to wear theirs too. She does not hide in the bathroom during thunderstorms anymore either. When Emma wears her PAWNIX headset, we feel better knowing and seeing that she is not hearing the storms or loud noises the same as she used to. We also practiced with other dogs we know to make sure we had good sizing, and we were not creating adverse reactions with dogs that just wanted to be part of the pack and wear what the others were wearing. She also asks for them when a storm is coming, and will happily chew a bone or return to sleep, while a nasty southern windy storm blows through. All were impressed by her calmness and her ability to still interact with them. We had a lot of people stop us and interact with Emma. Emma was not bothered by the fireworks being set off less than a block away. The highlight was taking her with us to the New Year’s Eve Concert with midnight firework celebrations (video on our website & facebook pin). We could visibly see a difference in Emma's behavior.

Then, only after we felt it was mathematically sound and human approved, we put the electronics plus the full dog ear muff helmet on Emma (our muse, see her story page), in different loud situations and it worked.
We used the same technology, testing, and human test responses that the human industry conducts. We modeled ourselves after the best human noise cancelling technology, and used audio testing technology to prove that the electronics were in fact cancelling the frequencies that were found to be problematic.
