Guess Who Is Knocking.
According to a new study published in the journal Physiology and Behavior, shelter dogs prefer listening to reggae music to other genres. Apparently, it’s good for their stress levels or something.
But, if you’re like us, you probably don’t want to listen to that much reggae – not all the time, anyway. So might we suggest a compromise, where you throw some reggae on the stereo for the pup and let it play while you head out and do other stuff.
Here are some places you can go while your dogs are chilling to their tunes.
