Common Questions
Will this actually work for my dog?

We won't promise a universal fix — no calming product works identically for every dog. What we can say is this continues a real biological signal your puppy already trusts, not a new intervention. If it's not a fit, the 30-day guarantee means you're not stuck with it.

Is this just another subscription trap?

No. Subscribing is opt-in, not required to purchase, and you can pause or cancel any time. We'd rather you cancel cleanly than get a support ticket about a charge you didn't expect.

Isn't this a waste of money?

The diffuser + refill starts at $49.99 — less than most calming-chew subscriptions over the same period, with no ongoing dosing cost baked in. Backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee either way.

I already tried a calming chew / ThunderShirt / camera app — why would this be different?

Different mechanism. Chews are ingested and can carry dosing or drowsiness side effects; a wrap manages the symptom, not the cause; a camera app manages your anxiety, not your puppy's. This is a passive scent signal — nothing to dose, nothing to wear that restrains them, nothing to watch.

Sarah M. ✓ Verified Buyer

“Got our golden retriever at 8 weeks … cried nonstop for the first 2 nights… ordered not really expecting much but by the end of the week she was settling within about 10 minutes. Even my husband admits it’s doing something now.”

Chris D. ✓ Verified Buyer

“Thought our border collie would just settle on his own. Two weeks after cubby and things are genuinely better. I just wish id started it from day one instead of waiting for it to “sort itself out””

Priya K. ✓ Verified Buyer

“Within a few days the howling dropped off enough that even our neighbour said something unprompted. Absolute lifesaver if you want to calm your pup.”

Rachel & Steve ✓ Verified Buyer

“We have raised two dogs before with no problems. Our kelpie pup needed a little bit of help. Started calming down straight away and now at three weeks shes behaving better than ever. Sometimes you just get a puppy who needs a bit more help and thats fine”

Liv ✓ Verified Buyer

“Bought my sister one when she got a puppy. Texted me after about a week saying her pup was sleeping through the night already. It’s one of those things where you don’t realize how much its helping until you think about how bad the first few nights were compared to now.”

How Cubby actually works

What it actually does, and the outcomes that come from it.

A 24/7 Calming Signal

Runs continuously in the background - not a timer, not something you switch on and off.

Nothing to Swallow

A passive scent signal, not a pill or a chew. No dosing, no drowsiness, no side effects.

A Real Pheromone, Not a Fragrance

The exact signal mother dogs produce for their puppies - identified by researchers in 1999, not invented by us.

Timed to the Missing Weeks

Most puppies are sold at 6-8 weeks, before the natural 12-week signal window closes. Cubby covers that gap.

The exact signal a mother dog produces for her puppies.

Identified by researchers in 1999, not invented by us. Most puppies leave their litter at 6–8 weeks, before that natural signal window closes — this covers the gap.

What to expect, and when

  1. The signal starts the moment you plug it in
    Day 1

    The signal starts the moment you plug it in

    No activation, no waiting period. The same scent signal your puppy's mother produced starts working in the background from the first night home.

  2. The adjustment window
    Day 7

    The adjustment window

    This is usually the stretch where the crying at the door, the crate resistance, and the 3am pacing start to ease.

  3. The new normal
    Day 30+

    The new normal

    By now it's routine, not a novelty - for your puppy and for you. Subscribe & Save keeps the signal running through the rest of the early-development period. The goal was never a puppy "fixed" overnight - it's one you raised through the hard part properly.

30-day Cubby guarantee badge

A guarantee we actually honour

30 days, plain and simple. If Cubby isn't a fit for your puppy, tell us and we'll refund it - no denied claims, no surprise recurring charges, no fine print designed to make it hard. If you'd rather cancel a subscription than keep it, that's a clean, easy process too.

No denied claims. No surprise charges.

Is this safe for a puppy this young?

Yes — checked against the manufacturer's own spec specifically for young animals, not just a general "safe for dogs" label.

I already tried a calming chew / ThunderShirt / camera app — why would this be different?

Different mechanism. Chews are ingested and can carry dosing or drowsiness side effects; a wrap manages the symptom, not the cause; a camera app manages your anxiety, not your puppy's. This is a passive scent signal — nothing to dose, nothing to wear that restrains them, nothing to watch.

Isn't this a waste of money?

My puppy is still really young — should I just wait and see?

Early intervention is what prevents this period from calcifying into adult temperament — waiting isn't the safer default, starting early is.

Will this make my puppy drowsy or sedated?

No — this isn't a sedative and there's nothing your puppy ingests. It's a scent signal they're already wired to recognise, not a drug with a dosing or drowsiness risk like some calming chews carry.

How long does one kit actually last?

Your kit ships with the diffuser and two refill bottles — about 30 days of continuous coverage. Subscribe & Save times the next shipment to that, so you never run out mid-transition.
