Can Music Calm an Anxious Dog | Surviving the Loss of Three Dogs in A Year | Dog Edition #18

Humans sang before we created language, some linguists say. Is our first language the best way to communicate with dogs? Can Music Calm an Anxious Dog? Babies who fuss and cry all night are not resting well ... and neither are their parents. Heartbeat Lullabies, a hit recording from hit music producer Terry Woodford, helped. Everyone from NICU nurses to parents sent gratitude ... and then the Honolulu Zoo, animal shelters, and exhausted dog moms. Turns out, what works for babies works for animals, too. Joshua Leeds, music producer and bio-acoustics expert, joins us to explain why. Surviving the Loss of Three Dogs in A Year They say bad things happen in threes, and the year 2020 amplified that by about twenty bajillion. For Lori Levine and her family, the losses last year were in part canine: three family dogs died. Lori joins us to explain how her own history with grieving -- and a special Warren Zevon song -- helped her to cope. If you wonder how you will face your dog's death, Lori's expert advice will help … because this celebrity marketing expert has a lifetime of hard-won wisdom to share.
