Stillwag

A calmer dog, one small step at a time.

Short daily practice for dogs who panic when you leave, or when fireworks and thunder start.

How it works

  1. Play a tiny rep

    A real recording, very quiet, or a few seconds out the door.

  2. Tap how your dog looked

    Relaxed, Noticed or Stressed.

  3. The ladder follows your dog

    Up only after two relaxed reps in a row, two steps down the moment your dog is stressed, then one easy rep to finish well.

Four programs

  • Settle on the mat

    The calm base skill.

  • Home alone

    From 3 seconds up to an hour. A chime tells you when to go back in, even with your phone locked.

  • Fireworks

    Real firework recordings across 12 sound levels.

  • Thunder

    Storm recordings with rain and rolling thunder.

Six short guides with public sources: when to get help, reading stress signals, a fireworks night plan, a storm day plan, should you comfort a scared dog, why punishment makes fear worse.
