Welcome to We’re All Ears.
 I’m Janet Marlow, sound behaviorist, composer, and founder of Pet Acoustics and today we’re talking about something that makes dog parents smile immediately:

The quiet, beautiful, slightly quirky things… that only dog parents truly understand.
If you know, you know.
Only a dog parent understands that you can identify your dog by the sound of their walk.

The rhythm of their nails on hardwood.
 The soft shuffle on carpet.
 The excited gallop when you open the treat jar.
You don’t even have to look up.
 You know whether it’s curiosity, play, or “I need to go out” just by the tempo. And here’s the deeper layer:
 Dogs are listening to us just as closely.

They know our car engine.
 Our sighs. The difference between our “It’s okay” and our “It’s time.”

Sound is relationship.
