Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[Shannon]

hi shannon, with OF on hybrid speakers through the night if a dog is in the room its playing will it cause issues for the dog?

Thanks.

I can tell you that it does not affect my dog, and I know my dog well, I am sure I’d notice if he was uncomfortable. I play hybrid or silent at a medium volume on speakers (medium relative to my ears which are very close.) My speakers are behind my head and much closer to my ears than to my dog’s, so the dog gets a much lower volume than I do.

I remember Shannon once saying that what you should do is observe your dog to make sure he/she is not uncomfortable.

It will ve very obvious very quickly if your dog is not happy with being exposed to the ultrasonic.  If you play it too loudly, it will cause them a headache, and they will look, and act, miserable, almost immediately.  If that didn't happen, you should be fine.
