Through a Dog’s Ear

Good-bye 2013. Don’t let the door… well, you know

December 31, 2013

This year can’t be over a minute too soon. It’s ridiculous, I know, to think that one sunset and sunrise will somehow change the disposition of the universe, that tomorrow my driveway will suddenly sprout good-luck flowers with solid-gold centers. (I’m not even sure what those would would look like — maybe sunflowers? Which would…

Coping with Holiday Frenzy: Sounds to Soothe the Canine Soul

December 6, 2011

I’ve been called a grinch for grumbling about this time of year, its sentimentality and sensory overload. Fine. But I contend that I don’t steal the spirit of the holiday season so much as provide a respite from it for those who need one — and that includes your dog. That’s right. Even if you,…

May 28, 2010

Several people answered an enthusiastic Yes! and a number of them mentioned a CD specifically — and scientifically — designed to elicit that response in canines.  Bridget K. Smith, speaking for her dog, Wrigley, mentioned that they had even collaborated on an…

Holiday stress? Some music to soothe the savage breast

December 11, 2009

First things first: I don’t think dogs are savages.  I often look to Frankie for  wisdom, as my last post attests.  But every time I’ve used the phrase “soothe the savage breast” in the past, an editor has changed “breast” to “beast”; one even accused me of having my mind in the gutter. Also, the…
