Laughing Dog Sound is Calming to Dogs.

Posted by Alex in Animal, Science & Tech on December 9, 2005 at 1:05 am


Patricia Simonet, an animal behaviorist at the Spokane County Regional Animal Protection Service in Washington found that the long, loud pant is the sound of dog laughing.

This dog laugh can affect other dogs:

"When they played the sound of a dog panting over the loudspeaker, the gaggle of dogs at the shelter kept right on barking. But when they played the dog version of laughing, all 15 barking dogs went quiet within about a minute."

    It seems, that your blog shows incorrect link to rss feed, it sends me to feed "http://www.neatorama.com/Neatorama" that doesn't exists. As I can see, right link would be "http://feeds.feedburner.com/Neatorama"
    As I can see, error is in alternale links section in the beginning of your page:

    Best wishes,

    I didn't see it - under the RSS Feed, the buttons for feedburner resolves correctly to "http://feeds.feedburner.com/Neatorama" ...
