That was interesting, and something I noticed for a long time with Joey. When he hears barking in movies, 90% of the time it doesn't phase him, but whenever I watch a youtube of dogs and they bark, Joey goes nuts. I've been suspecting that most movies use a human barker and although the sound may sound the same to our human ears, dogs can tell the difference. I think the reason he got such a repose from the dogs was not his barking, but his interaction with them. I really wonder about all the nuances of their hearing. While I was training Joey I always thought he learned faster if I could mimic speech in a sing songy kind away, he recognized the rhythm of something rather than the words. Really understanding how their senses worked would be such a tremendous aid in training.
Oh yes, and the videos were really funny too! |
