Introducing Pet Hypnosis CD To Soothe and Calm Your Pet
Is there a new puppy in the house or does your dog misbehave or start whining when you get ready to leave for work, school or whenever? Seperation anxiety is not just a people problem but also occurs in pets. John Morgan, a leading authority on hypnosis, has created a CD with the anxious pet in mind. This CD "offers a combination of voice and music to induce a hypnotic state. It is meant to relax the animal when your leaving the house or "just in the moment". The creator says that hypnosis is all about rhythms and lulling both people and pets into a certain frame of mind." --- Animal Wellness, April 2010, Pg. 23
