faggot dogs that need thundershirts

[SirBatesAlot]

Not quite as gay as the rangers.

so these thundershirts somehow make the dogs feel ok during thunderstorms?

I think they just get rid of static, the air when there is a thunderstorm makes the pets get all static filled and it freaks them out or something.

Storm Defender for Dogs Afraid of Thunderstorms

You might have noticed that your dog can sense that a storm is coming even before you can. This is because dogs can sense the static electricity that builds before a thunderstorm. This static charge, if it gets big enough, is what produces destructive lightning. Dogs instinctively sense that impending lightning, feel fear and wish to seek shelter. It is their "early warning" system for lightning and a built in safety mechanism. However, in our homes, the poor dog's fear (sometimes more like a phobia) is no help during thunderstorms. Some dogs are extremely excited or even panicked during storms and are impossible to console.

we arent here to evaluate the effectiveness of thundershirts

instead we want to just to speak to how gay the concept is

A fashion fad for friendog.

Nice insanity.

from what i read about it its got something to do with the pressure. Thundershirts have are a bit heavy and tighten up on the dog and it applies pressure. Somehow this makes them feel more comfortable and apparently somehow does the same for autistic children.

what the fuck is a thunder shirt

 

[SirBatesAlot]

It's an under shirt that you only wear during thunder storms.

It protects you from loud noises.

 

[Veniggs]

[Irn-Bru]

Seems like someone is making a lot of money from retards again.

Inb4 "it's the guy who said he'd look after all your pets after the rapture"

my dog hates anything that creates an air pressure shockwaves

thunderstorms and air brakes on garbage trucks/school buses are his #1 and #2 enemies respectively

we were out of the house a couple of weeks ago when an unexpected storm rolled through and we had left the back door open for him to go outside. when we got home, he was absolutely drenched and barked himself hoarse trying to fend off the storm. he's not scared, he wants to kill it

I'm pretty happy I didn't know what thundershirts were until this thread

 

[Phyzx]

They suppress the build-up of static electricity on the dog, which in turn suppresses the dog's instinct to seek shelter from lightning.

In theory anyway.

yea i heard it all before but it still sounds dumb and like some bullshit to me.

my mother inlaw is a vet and i asked her about these a few years back when they ran the infomercials.

she says they do seem to actually work... something about making the dogs feel hugged or some shit i dont really know but FFS none of my dogs will be gun/firework/lightning shy

 

[Data]

Yeah it's probably easier to just have a dog who isn't a scared little shit.
