Species-specific psychoacoustic research has allowed an understanding of how animals respond to sound frequencies. Biometric Studies have demonstrated that dogs, cats, horses, birds, and rabbits have vastly different auditory capabilities. When animals aren’t feeling well, struggle with behavioral problems, or experience stress and anxiety, this can be challenging for their humans. Hearing is one of the most important senses for survival; therefore, it’s just as important for our pets to hear as it is for us!
Sarasota Audiology has partnered with the leading expert, Janet Marlow, Founder of Pet Acoustics, who has conducted extensive research and composes music specifically designed for different species, with frequencies and decibels contoured to reshape their listening environments. For example, a hypervigilant pet may experience stress simply from certain environmental sounds (or their inability to adequately hear these sounds). The products offered eliminate problematic environmental sounds and create a comfortable listening experience for your beloved pet. Some conditions targeted are:
- Age-related hearing loss
- Breed-specific hearing loss
- Anxiety
- Stress and elevated cortisol
- Separation Anxiety
- Travel Anxiety
- Hyperactivity
- Boredom
- DepressionAnxiety
Sarasota Audiology offers animal audiology services and products which are scientifically proven via peer-reviewed Pet Acoustics studies and published in Veterinarian-trusted literature such as the International Animal Health Journal.
