Is Music Soothing For Dogs?
As a dog lover, you already know your specific genre of music that you love. Then what type of music do dogs prefer? A paper published by the Scottish SPCA and the University of Glasgow proclaims one variety of music is preferred by dogs. The dogs in the study were played five different types of music: soft rock, Motown, pop, reggae and classical. As a result, the dogs spent significantly more time lying down and less standing around when music was played. For the most part, more positive behaviors were noticed when the dogs were played reggae and soft rock. Although those two style of music stood out, the study suggested that individual dogs had their own music tastes, just like people.

Whether you big mutt is doing it as attention seeking, just making themselves seen or heard or even expressing joy and excitement, howling can be music to your ears. Especially when a dog hears a police siren or ambulance, many dogs will perform the perfect operatic performance.
