Product info
Adaptil Diffuser
The Adaptil diffuser needs to be plugged in, just like a plug-in air freshener. The diffuser immediately begins to spread pheromones. They are not detectable by humans, only by dogs. You should therefore not be able to smell the diffuser. This product is ideally suited for:
- Puppies, to get used to their new home.
- To calm several dogs in the house at the same time.
- To reassure your dog before and during fireworks.
Anxiety and stress
Dogs that suffer from anxiety and stress may exhibit unwanted anxiety and stress-related behaviour. This behaviour can occur due to fear of loud noises (such as thunderstorms or fireworks), a new environment (e.g. moving to a new house), separation anxiety or the presence of a new family member. Puppies and adult dogs may display undesirable behaviour in these situations, such as excessive barking or licking and fouling or destructive behaviour. If these situations sound familiar to you, the Adaptil diffuser may be able to help your dog!
Pheromones
All lactating females release (appeasing pheromones), which ensure that the offspring feel calm and reassured. Research has shown that the calming effect of these pheromones can still occur at an older age. All Adaptil products (apart from the tablets) contain a formula which replicates the natural soothing dog pheromones.
Using the Adaptil diffuser:
You should plug the Adaptil diffuser into a socket in the area where the dog usually spends the most time. One refill is sufficient for a 30-day treatment, in a space of approximately 50-70 m². Adaptil is remarkably effective. According to the manufacturer, after one month of use, 72-85% of dogs stop barking and destroying property when they are left alone. The positive effects occur quickly, usually in the first week of treatment. For best results, it is recommended to use the Adaptil diffuser for at least 1 month, alongside obedience training. The manufacturer recommends that you replace the diffuser after using five refills.
Please note: This item has a 2-pin plug, but comes with a UK 3-pin adaptor.
In addition to the diffuser, the Adaptil range consists of Adaptil spray, the Adaptil collar and Adaptil chews. Below you can see which product is best for various situations.

Adaptil Refill
One vial of Adaptil Calm is enough for a 30-day treatment for an area up to 70 m². Replace the Adaptil Calm vial in the diffuser with an Adaptil Calm Refill every month to keep your dog calm in stressful situations, such as thunderstorms, fireworks, staying home alone and visitors. Replacing the vial is easy: screw the Adaptil Refill onto the diffuser and simply plug the diffuser into the outlet. The diffuser is supposed to be kept continuously on. The manufacturer recommends replacing the diffuser after 5 refills.
Please note
Please note that the diffuser has an Eu two pin plug and won't fit into a standard U.K. three pin socket or the two pin shaver socket without a travel adapter.
