I did hear on the radio that some company came out with a CD of music that only dogs can hear.  They did some big research on what songs the dogs like the most and made a CD of it. :roll:]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[whether we are the only creatures who 'hear' sounds as music rather than as just individual sounds.. Dunno, but some other animals sure seem to be fascinated by it. I've had hummingbirds come hover in front of me checking me out when playing slide outside. Used to have a chinchilla who'd hide inside the foldout couch, and the only way I could get him out was to break out the reso and bottleneck. He'd run right out and stand up in front of me, listening intently. I've even got a water turtle in a tank in the basement who'll stand up, stick his head out and pay attention to slide guitar music. My daughter's baby tortoise seems to like it, too. He'll crawl over and get between my feet when I play. The cats, OTOH, give me a disgusted look and leave. Can't please everyone... <br><br>Oh, yeah: Watch this video and tell me this bird's only hearing music as individual sounds: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGJaz64lrJ4">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGJaz64lrJ4</a>

My daughter's budgie loves "music." For example, the worse my banjo playing, the more he sings. He also like screeching violin, good or bad mando and acoustic slide ... anything with lots of attack and/or harmonics.]]></content:encoded>
