MADE FOR GROOMERS, BY GROOMERS. Happy Hoodie was created as a grooming tool to CALM & protect dogs from the loud noise & high-pressured air associated w/ force drying. Happy Hoodie saves valuable time in the Grooming Salon & creates a safer environment by calming upset, disagreeable, aggressive, or sensitive dogs during any potentially stressful situation, such as toenail clipping, clipper work, brushing, bathing, etc. The dog anxiety calming aid you want to have in your dog grooming tool kit.
HOW TO REDUCE NOISE. It is important to place the ears DOWN over the ear canals so the ear canals are NOT exposed, then secure them in place w/ Happy Hoodie. Noise reduction is achieved by Happy Hoodie’s gentle compression closing off the ear canal. IF YOU THINK IT’S TOO TIGHT, PLEASE KNOW SNUGNESS IS NECESSARY. IF YOUR 4 FINGERS FIT UNDER IT, IT’S NOT TOO TIGHT (IT’S SO STRETCHY!). Pets appreciate it most when used ONLY during a stressful situation. PLEASE REFER TO SIZE GUIDE BEFORE PURCHASE.
HELPS KEEP PETS CALM AND COMFORTABLE AT HOME TOO! Uses include: Anti-anxiety aid for stress in the home, car, and at the Vets; dog ear muffs for noise cancelling to protect dogs’ ears and hearing from loud noise, such as Thunder, Fireworks, vacuums, and gun fire; aerate the ears; heal or prevent hematomas; neck and ear warmers; grooming aid; keeping long ear and facial hair up and out of the way while eating or drinking.
RECOMMENDED BY VETS to help prevent or heal hematomas when used as a dog ear wrap for shaking heads, help control bleeding; aerate the ears to speed up recovery of an ear infection; keep medication from being shaken out of ears; provide dog ear protection for swimming and bath time; as a post-surgery ear protection aid.
A NATURAL, HOMEOPATHIC DOG CALMING REMEDY SINCE 2008, its swaddling effect will soothe and comfort pets. When worn together, Happy Hoodie can increase and complement the efficiency of dog anxiety vests, fireworks and separation anxiety jacket, stress collars, AND calming scarf.

Perfect! For my Aussie
Great for my Aussie! He absolutely hates the blow dryer and tries to bite it the whole time. It improves his ability to handle the blow dryer. He only tries to bite it if itâs hitting near his face. But we got him a large and heâs about 49 pounds. It stays on well and I donât have any problems with slipping. Itâs nice and thick and soft. And I think a good price for the quality

Not bad, but be careful!
My dog has chronic ear infections, and has had 2 hematomas, one on each ear.He is a semi-large pit-dane (70-80 lbs).He was an ear flapper before hematomas, and remains one after. So, in order for him to not blow out his ears I got this to help hold them down.So a couple of things to note:1) They will still flap, and some MIGHT try and paw at it, so pay attention to your pet. Flapping with this one, nothing will move if they don’t paw at it incessantly. Its decently tight, and offers ear support.2) It is soft and stretchy, so easy to get around most dog heads, its almost like a head-sock in that way.3) Most important one to me: If your dog CURRENTLY has an ear infection, or has had surgery… you WILL need to CLEAN REGULARLY. This device will not dry the inside of your dog’s ears, so covering it up will keep it icky if left with moisture.If its gunky-infection it may be difficult to use this. It will get crusted up easily and youll have to wash it. If you leave it in too long the crush will make it stick to their fur and make it gross as well as uncomfortable to remove later.I would recommend some supervised Air-Dry time several times a day, or a cone instead if its a recent surgery or gunky ear infection.Now, if your dog does NOT get ear infections, and just is a flapper/ear scratcher this would probably work very well without much worry. Just clean ears regularly, wash this when it gets covered in hair or dander to prevent likelihood of creating an infection using it.I wouldnt say they are noise cancelling, though maybe noise dampening. Some dogs might find relief from it, some might find discomfort. Depends on the dog.I can see the use from this product, but it did not work for my purposes unfortunately. No fault of the product I feel, It just did not fit my needs. Just think about it a minute, and be willing to take a loss if its not for your dog.

Works well but not foolproof
It does help to calm my dog down but he can still get it off if he tries enough so I have to keep adjusting it.

Put the hoodie on over the cats head all the way and then pull it back over the ears.
The product was delivered on time and works great! “Happy Hoodie” made it much easier to groom my cat. Trouble free delivery. The perfect inexpensive thing to help calm your cat for stressful things like grooming.

Great, with issues being washed
My dog got an aural hematoma, and I needed to keep his ears pinned to his head so he would stop shaking them and reopening the wound.Pros: This worked like a charm when I first used it. Tight enough to hold his ear in place, but not too tight that he seemed uncomfortable. Also, it seemed to calm him down, so it seems like it would be great for an anxious dog on even loud car ridesCons: We opened the hematoma while the hood was on, so it got dirty. We washed it just in the sink, and the elasticity seems to have disappeared. There may be a way to wash this without it happening, but it our case, it lost its effectiveness after washing

This product saved my dog’s life!
This will be long, but may help someone in a similar position.This product has single handedly saved my dogs life and my entire family’s sanity. We inherited my grandfather’s Yorkie in 2019, who is now about 17 years old with dementia and losing his hearing, sight, and mind. He has always had separation anxiety. First with my grandfather, now my dad. If he is not with my dad, he barks. Non-stop. At anything, anyone, at all times. He’s always done this, but it has gotten worse in the last few years. We have tried everything; medication. cbd, calming treats, collars, lick mats, taking him on walks. It has gotten so bad my dad has been considering putting him down, which none of us want to do as he is healthy, but the barking is insufferable and affecting the mental health of everyone in the house. It brings my mom to tears and she no longer enjoys being home.As a last ditch effort to save him from meeting the end, I purchased the happy hoodie. I can’t even begin to describe how this tiny piece of cloth can instantly stop a barking fit and calm him down. I don’t know if it’s because he feels strange in it, he pressure is easing his anxiety, or the muffling of sounds (he can hear, but not well) has made him less stressed, but my family and my dog has had the most peaceful week in years. He looks absolutely silly in it, but it has been a miracle for us. Now our little old man can stay with us for as long as he is able to and we can finally relax in our home. Thank you happy hoodie for saving my dog!!!

Really helped my boy with fireworks and thunderstorms. Itâs stretchy, but the fabric is nice and comfy. He looks funny but so cute with it on. Iâd def buy again when I need too.

I just received the Happy Hoodie today, I am very pleased with the softness yet firm tightness and thickness of the head wrap. My cat was going to start acting up, so I used the hoodie, my cat calmed right down and allowed me to bath her. I was quite impressed. Something so simple, helping so much!

nous avons acheté cette capuche parce que nous avons deux chiens et que notre shi tzu mordait tout le temps l’oreille de notre bichon, grâce à cette capuche, nous n’avons plus ce problème mais ce que nous ignorions c’est que cette capuche allait entièrement changer notre vie!!! En effet, notre bichon, contrairement à notre shi tzu est très nerveux et aboie à chaque bruit qu’il entend, depuis cette capuche nous avons deux chiens super sages!!!!! Je recommande, je viens d’en commander une autre pour mon shi tzu parce qu’il a peur quand il sort en ville à cause du bruit de la circulation, il sera apaisé également grapce à cette capuche. Merci au vendeur!!

trotz “Made in Taiwan” guter Stoff ist fest und stinkt nicht.Leider war GröÃe L bei unserem Berger Picard zu klein- ich denke bei allen Hunden so ab Labrador/Goldie-KopfgröÃe wirds schwierig.
