FEAR of noises

Access the new and innovative solutions designed to help your pets of various types be less likely to be affected by illogical fear of noises, which can be a serious burden for both of you.

Noise Phobia: A possibly serious problem

Noise phobia is illogical fear of sounds that we humans know are harmless, but our pets and horses don't necessarily know that. Up to 60% of pets can have anything from saddening anxiety, to frantic fear when they hear unknown noises. This can be from being sad, to very serious, with injury or damage for pets or owner, pets fleeing and getting lost, or even death.

The method to deal with this problem is called noise phobia therapy. In the classical method, potentially scary sounds are played, usually from one CD or set of MP3 sounds. The volume is from very low in the beginning, to full volume in the end, in the therapy process that can take several weeks. The goal is that the pets become used to the sounds and is not scared when they are actually heard.

WeStopFear has carefully analyzed the classical process, and believes it has drawbacks that are vital to address.

Innovations of WeStopFear

WeStopFear™ has developed a new technical therapy process, designed with the goal that the majority of users will hopefully see it as easier, simpler, safer, more natural and more bearable. The system is called Simple Secure Steps™.

WeStopFear is the most comprehensive solutions ever offered. It is a member's website with Internet-streaming audio players. It is thus similar to music streaming websites. You can use your mobile device or computer, connected wirelessly or with cable to loudspeakers with good volume and audio quality. MP3 download is also an upgrade option.

The volume level of the therapy sounds is pre-set to the correct volume, in five steps. This makes the process simpler and safer. Access to the steps is managed, meaning less hassle and organization is needed.

Simple equipment

You can use your smartphone, tablet or computer to stream the sounds over the Internet. With this you need a good quality loudspeaker(s) with realistic volume, either wireless or connected with speaker cables.

We Want Fewer Stories Like These

Anxious, or worse?

Imagine a normal day with your pets. You should not have a care in the world, but one or even more of your pets is anxious and hides, because of a sound it heard, a sound you know is entirely harmless. It is common among up to 60% of pets to be uneasy of fearful because of some sounds it does not understand. This is not very serious, but the day is not as relaxed as it should be. But for some pets it can be more serious. A small percentage can from time to time have very serious problems of this kind. You never know which one will face this. This can even be catastrophic:

What is this??

Imagine you own a sweet and loving dog. It has been a part of the family for years. Then one day fireworks are set off near your home. Your dog reacts with such fear that it jumps up and through the glass door that leads to the patio. In shock, you are left with broken glass and drops of blood on the patio, and your dog has disappeared into the dark night. For days, you have no information about your dog. Then days later after an agonizing wait, you are contacted by police. Your dog had run over a motor highway and was hit by a truck and fatally injured there. Your dog was microchipped, so that is the reason you did get information about it.

How horrible!

Imagine you own a sweet, loving cat that greets you every time you come home. Then one day fireworks explode close to your apartment and your cat escapes out. Your cat disappears into the night. You search the neighborhood for days, but you cannot find your cat. Weeks later your cat is found hiding under a car in a garage miles away. It is so scared that the garage owners cannot be coaxed out or picked up. Rescue workers finally manage to trap your cat and bring it to you. But your cat is changed. It has become unpredictable and much more difficult to handle. You are lucky as your cat was microchipped. But another cat with a similar story was not, so its owners were never found, and it was so traumatized by the experience that it could not be re-homed.

This must be dangerous??

Imagine you own a parrot. It is your pride and joy, and you have been bonding well. Then one evening fireworks are set off with big cracks and bangs. You are away from your home. The day after you find your Macaw trembling with fear. It is hanging upside down in the window curtains, trembling and shocked. You reach out and take it on your hand as you have done often before, but it freaks out and bites you in your face and ear. You need to go to the hospital to get your wounds treated.

And what is this??

Imagine you own two rabbits. They are your pride and joy. Then one day some sudden, uncomfortable noises that they aren’t used to make them scared. One of your rabbit freezes in its spot, and then limps down. It has died right there on the spot, and rabbits sometimes do when becoming overwhelmingly scared. The other rabbit survives but is now lonely.

Prevent or heal

These imaginary trauma stories are based on actual events. They happen every year, and sadly often.

Accidents and negative consequences of fear of sounds can not be completely eliminated, but their likelihood can be reduced, and the problems may be less serious for those who are affected. Maybe that could include one or more of your pets?

Noise phobia therapy is the methodology designed to prevent or heal these problems.

You can use search phrases like 'pets noise phobia', 'pets scared of noises', '(pet type) scared of noises', 'pets fear of fireworks', 'pets fear of thunderstorms', 'pets lost injury fear of fireworks and thunderstorms'.

Try the 5 steps audio players

There are 5 steps in the Simple Secure Steps therapy process. The sounds in the steps are the same. It is only that the volume is pre-set correctly in each step: From very, very low in Step 1, to full natural volume in Step 5. You get access to Step 1 in the beginning, and then gradually to Step 2, Step 3, Step 4 and Step 5, and finally the ongoing Maintain Success stage.

Below are streaming audio player with short samples of therapy sounds.

Setting the volume

In the beginning, you find the correct volume setting for the loudspeakers of your audio playback device by playing the piano tune below. The volume setting should be so that the piano music is at a good and clear listening level, not very low like soft dinner music at a restaurant, not extremely loud like a rock concert.

You will keep this same volume on a particular audio device that you use in a particular location, every time in all the steps. If there are markings or numbers that show the volume setting, then you need to find the right volume setting on the audio device only once. But if there is no scale, number or markings, then you need to play the piano tune each time to set the volume correctly.

After you have set the volume, try playing the sounds in each step. Do not do this when your animal is present. The volume in the higher steps could give it a shock, just like the actual sounds when they are heard suddenly.

Streaming, choose and custom

In the therapy member's pages, you have access to a streaming player that plays the playlist in random order with just one button click, each sound once and then stops. You also have access to players to play individual sounds like below, and you can also choose a number of sounds to create your own custom playlist, which will then be played in random order.
