What Pets Hear: The New Science of Pet Hearing Health and the Hidden Sounds Shaping Behavior (EBook-Download)

What if the biggest influence on your pet’s behavior isn’t what you see—but what they hear?

In What Pets Hear, Janet Marlow, founder of Pet Acoustics and a pioneer in species-specific sound therapy, introduces a groundbreaking perspective on animal wellness: hearing health as the foundation of behavior, emotional balance, and overall wellbeing.

Animals experience the world through a vastly different auditory lens. Their hearing is more sensitive, more expansive, and more directly connected to their nervous system than our own. Sounds we dismiss as background noise can trigger stress, anxiety, or agitation—often without visible cause.

This book reveals:

• How dogs, cats, and other animals truly perceive sound

• The hidden impact of everyday environments on behavior

• Why unresolved sound stress is often misinterpreted as training or temperament issues

• How to create a healthier acoustic environment at home or in professional settings

• The emerging role of hearing screening as a new dimension of preventive care

Blending science, real-world observations, and decades of research, Janet Marlow presents a new model of care—one that integrates hearing wellness into modern pet health.

Whether you are a pet parent, veterinarian, trainer, or animal care professional, What Pets Hear will transform how you understand behavior—and give you the tools to support animals in a calmer, more biologically aligned way.

Because when you change what they hear… you change how they live.
