Dogs enjoy classical music

If you want your dog to behave then it seems the answer could be found in playing them a blast of classical music, one charity has found. Fascinating research from The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association reveals that Guide Dog Trainers have discovered that dogs love Classic FM. The discovery was made after the digital radio manufacturer, PURE, donated six radios to each of the four Guide Dogs' training schools. The Association was seeking to provide a more relaxed atmosphere within the Dog Care Department for the dogs while they were at rest, as part of an environmental enrichment project. The trainers tried a range of radio stations and Classic FM produced the best results: "leaving the dogs chilled out and ready for a new day’s training!"
