Introducing AHeart, an Audiology Associates Community Initiative. 💚
AHeart is where we share the stories, ideas, and moments closest to our heart, including the many ways sound connects us to our community, our loved ones, and the world around us.
To begin, meet Sadie, Dr. Marincovich’s new Flat-Coated Retriever. After only a few days at home, Sadie has already shown how calming music can be for her. We are also happy to report that she appears to be an Eagles fan!
Dogs experience a world of sound that extends far beyond our own. Humans typically hear frequencies ranging from about 20 to 20,000 Hz, while dogs may hear frequencies as high as 45,000 to 60,000 Hz. They can also detect certain sounds that are much quieter than what human ears can perceive.
Sadie’s response to music is a sweet reminder that sound has the power to comfort, connect, and enrich our lives, whether we have two ears or four paws.
We look forward to sharing more Sound Facts from the Heart through AHeart.
