Ensure you have plugged in your D.A.P. Diffuser at least one week prior to Fireworks season.
 Don’t punish the dog when it is scared: it only confirms that there is something of which to be afraid.
Don’t fuss or try to reassure the dog when it is scared, as this rewards the behaviour.
Do ignore any fearful behaviour that occurs for no good reason.
Do feed the dog a good meal rich in carbohydrate, with added Vitamin B6, mid to late afternoon (but do not do this if the dog is prone to diarrhoea when it is scared, or at other times).
If necessary, don’t feed the dog at any other time of the day to ensure a good appetite.
Do make sure the dog is kept in a safe and secure environment at all times, so that it does not bolt and escape if a sudden noise occurs.
