Dogs get their first ever bedtime story

London, Nov. 4 (ANI): Scientists from UK claim to have produced the world's first bedtime story for dogs.

Laura Quinn, working with pet behaviourist Karen Wild, spent years analysing speech patterns so they could write a story perfect for calming dogs upset by fireworks.

"Dogs understand certain sounds as calming," the Sun quoted Wild, who created the story for insurers More Than, as saying.

The free audio book 'Teddy and Stanley's Tall Tale' includes soothing syllables designed to lower stress in canines.

Dogs can hear the audio book read by actor Simon Callow on YouTube, or their owners can download a version to read to their pets themselves. (ANI)
