Really works!, July 13, 2006
Reviewer: M Mercedes
Sound conditioning of very young puppies is incredibly effective and reaps HUGE benefits that last throughout the puppy's lifetime even when you stop playing the CD. I bought this CD and I also bought the 'SOUND SOCIALIZATION' CD by Angel Dog Productions. (I could do without the barking dog tracks however as they just set my dogs off barking every time.)

If you are at all sound sensitive yourself, you have to play this kind of conditioning CD when you're not in the immediate area or else risk insanity! The noises are indeed varied and real to life. The concept is simple. DESENSITIZE your puppy (or older dog) gradually to environmental sounds and thereby reduce/eliminate stress.

IT REALLY WORKS! My 6 month-old pup was weaned on these CDs. His breeder played the CDs many hours a day from the time he was a wee pup and it shows. He is just about oblivious to startling noises and is TOTALLY fearless around shop machines, vacuum cleaners, thunder, crashing pots and pans, and other common loud noises that startle most dogs.

Especially wonderful training for a future show dog. If you have an older dog who is afraid of thunder, these CDs will help desensitize him if used gently, and patiently, over the long term.

My only complaint is the price. IMO they are just too expensive. By the time I paid for shipping, the total came to almost $60.00 for two CDs! Still, it is a small investment in the long term and will allow you to literally CREATE a relaxed confident dog that is comfortable around loud noises and chaos.
