with Scott Simon quickly became one of NPR's most emailed - in programs. Dave Barry, nationally syndicated columnist picked
Dr. Kim's CD "Songs to Make Dogs Happy" for his Gift Guide!
Here's what PETA has to say about Dr. Kim and her CD - Songs to Make Dogs Happy:
"According
to Dr. Ogden's survey, dogs were in overwhelming agreement about song lyrics that make their tails wag:
• 93%
of dogs surveyed want to hear that their "human companion loves me"
• 93% want to hear a song about "having a dog
bed"
• 92% want to "tell my human I love them"
• 87% want to hear a song about a toy
• 87% want
to hear a song about eating food
• 75% want to hear a song about playing outside
PETA informally tested the
CD on dogs who accompany PETA staffers to work and found that "Squeaky Deaky," a song about, you guessed it, squeaky toys,
piqued dogs' interest while "You're a Good Dog" caused them to relax and close their eyes. But they quickly became alert again
when they heard the barking dogs at the beginning of "Adventure Dog."
"'Songs to Make Dogs Happy' is the perfect gift
for 'stay-at-home' dogs or dogs who have separation anxiety or are fearful of thunderstorms," says PETA President Ingrid E.
Newkirk. "Dogs who are at home alone for long hours at a stretch could use a little something to liven their day."
Share
all 12 tracks with your pooch and you will be amazed at the response!"
