Understanding stress in dogs – recognizing, understanding, and reducing it with BEST‑BOX and BIOS blanket
Patricia RathgebStress is an underestimated problem in dogs – often dismissed as a behavioral problem, but stress can have serious health consequences that go far beyond nervous behavior. In this article, you'll learn scientifically based information:
- Typical signs of stress in dogs
- Why chronic stress is dangerous – health, behavior, body
- The BEST‑BOX: Analysis & applications to identify and resolve sources of stress
- BIOS dog blanket (Calm & Relax): proven support for the home
- How to use both tools effectively
Stress in dogs: precisely recognizing symptoms
Dogs show stress through both behavioral signals and physical symptoms:
Behavior & Body Language: Panting for no apparent reason, frequent yawning, tongue licking, licking of nose or lips, tail tucked, crouching posture, turning the head away, shaking, licking the mouth, raising the hair on the neck, trembling, destructive behavior, excessive barking or whining.
Physical: Diarrhea, vomiting, hair loss, skin problems, loss or increase in appetite, immune deficiency and digestive disorders.
Warning signals: Even more subtle signals such as calming signals – e.g. yawning in social contexts – can indicate excessive demands.

Long-term consequences of stress
Chronic stress has been proven to have the following effects:
Immune system & intestines: Weakened immune defenses with increased susceptibility to infections, chronic inflammation, stomach ulcers, and functional or inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders.
Allergies: Recurrent or chronic stress can worsen existing allergies, promote the onset of new allergies, and lower the threshold for allergic reactions.
Skin & Coat: Itching, hair loss, hot spots or atopic inflammation can be triggered or worsened by stress.
Behavior: Aggression, withdrawal, uncleanliness or destructive behavior occur more frequently.
Psychological stress: In extreme cases, dogs can develop depressive symptoms—e.g., loss of appetite, listlessness, and fatigue. The response to stress is individual and influenced by many factors—including genetic and epigenetic predispositions, early life experiences, current living conditions, and social environment.
BEST‑BOX – Holistic support for stress and imbalances
The EQUUSIR BEST‑BOX is much more than an analysis device – it is an innovative health and regeneration system that detects, understands, and specifically treats stress.
Analysis – precise, fast, individual
Using an energetic screening, the BEST‑BOX provides insights into:
- Activity patterns of the autonomic nervous system
- Possible regulatory disorders or overload of organs (e.g. liver, adrenal glands, intestines)
- Psychological stress and energetic blockages
This analysis forms the scientifically sound basis for subsequent applications – individually tailored and immediately implementable.
Application – Regeneration at the cellular level
The treatment is applied immediately after the analysis – precisely tailored to your dog's stress profile. The following are used:
Photobiomodulation (PMB) – Color light pulses to calm and regulate the nervous system and balance energy production.
Infrared-B radiation (IR-B) – deep heat to promote cell regeneration, metabolism and muscular relaxation
Visible changes become apparent after just a few applications: greater balance, improved recovery, muscular regeneration, a strengthened immune system and visible well-being.
The combination of analysis and application in the BEST‑BOX represents modern health prevention – based on neurostimulation, light therapy, and evidence-based technology.
BIOS dog blanket – relaxation at home
The EQUUSIR BIOS dog blanket ideally complements the results of the BEST‑BOX and brings relaxation and balance directly into your dog's everyday life – without any side effects.
Two programs, one goal: well-being
- CALM – reduces stress reactions to fear, noise or sensory overload
- RELAX – promotes deep relaxation, supports regeneration and sleep quality
How does it work?
The BIOS dog blanket generates electromagnetic pulses in the ELF frequency range (3–30 Hz). These overlap with the brain's natural frequency patterns (EEG waves), so your dog's body recognizes the signals as "familiar" and reacts accordingly.
This gentle but effective neurostimulation works directly on the autonomic nervous system and regulates important functions such as breathing, circulation, and muscle tone – without the use of pharmaceutical agents.
Application: Simply place the blanket, switch it on and feel the effect – at home, while traveling or during training.
Integrative approach – targeting stress instead of symptoms
The combination of the comprehensive analysis and therapy functions of the EQUUSIR BEST-BOX and the continuous support of the BIOS dog blanket forms a synergistic solution for sustainable stress management – scientifically sound, energetically effective, and individually adapted.
measure | Function in stress management |
---|---|
BEST-BOX analysis | Identifies deep-seated sources of stress on a physical, organic, psychological, and mental level – quickly, precisely, and objectively. |
BEST‑BOX application | Specifically activates self-regulation via colored light pulses (photobiomodulation) and deep heat (infrared B radiation). |
BIOS dog blanket | Complements the effect by regulating the nervous system in everyday life – with the Calm (calming) & Relax (regeneration) programs. |
A holistic system that does not suppress symptoms, but rather identifies causes, activates self-healing, and sustainably supports regeneration – for more balance, vitality, and joy in life.
