I’m sure you’ve had many times in your life when you had an idea for a product or service, but then you second guessed yourself. You were probably thinking, “How many people would really ever want music to make their dogs happy?” You, my friend, should trust your gut. Go with that crazy idea! Go ahead and create a smiley face kitchen sponge, or start that ugly Christmas sweater company.

There’s a company based in Las Angeles, California that creates ‘songs to make dogs happy’. The entire company is dedicated to making musical albums for dogs and WITH dogs. The company used focus groups (made up of over 200 dogs from across the country) to determine their preference in music and content. Then dog’s responses were then used as a guide for the creation of the music and lyrics. The music was then tested by individuals, rescue groups and others.

SONGS TO MAKE DOGS HAPPY – the Only Musical Album for Dogs ever approved by Dogs.Featuring “Squeaky Deaky” — an ear-worm call to action song for dogs. Ask your listeners to bring their dogs into the room to hear this song and see what happens to the phone lines, A story of interest and major FUN for dog lovers — and their dogs.

The company claims the albums help ease separation anxiety, settles dogs down when traveling, strengthens the bond between dog lovers and their dogs and is even used by vets and shelters to calm the animals.
