PETS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART of our lives, providing companionship and love, relieving stress, and offering a host of other health benefits.

As pet parents, we are responsible for the health and wellbeing of our pets. Is your dog afraid of loud noises such as thunderstorms or fireworks? Ever wonder why your dog eats poop and how to stop it? Did you ever wish you could have online courses about animal behavior training?

State Farm® is a national sponsor for Fear Free Happy Homes, an online resource created by America's Veterinarian, Dr. Marty Becker, to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets by inspiring and educating the people who care for them. Since 2016, Fear Free has provided online and in-person education to more than 40,000 veterinary professionals, pet professionals, and pet owners. Fear Free programs provide pet owners and professionals with the knowledge and tools to look after a pet’s physical and emotional well-being.

Pet owners can visit fearfreehappyhomes.com to access courses, articles, and videos. Members also get access to monthly deals and a directory of Fear Free Certified Professionals. Board-certified veterinary behaviorists review all content.
