Dog sounds & squeaky toys

What sounds are in the app?

The library brings together several kinds of recordings. Start with a sound that fits the moment and watch your dog’s response.

• Dog sounds: barks, whimpers, whines and puppy vocalizations.
• Toy sounds: squeaky toys and playful sound effects.
• Everyday sounds: a whistle, a door knock, a doorbell and crunchy food.
• Animal sounds: cat meows and purrs, birds and other animal calls.

How to play sounds for your dog

Choose one short sound and start at low volume with the phone away from your dog’s ears. Play it once, pause and let your dog decide whether to investigate. A relaxed interaction can lead into a game with a real toy.

A head tilt can be fun, but you do not need to keep replaying a sound to get a bigger reaction. If your dog moves away, becomes tense or starts barking repeatedly, stop playback and switch to an activity they enjoy. Doorbells and unfamiliar barks may be exciting or unsettling for some dogs.

Play sounds, training sounds and translation

Use this library for entertainment. For a predictable training signal, use a dedicated clicker or teach a whistle cue. Switching between random sound effects will not give a dog the same clear signal.

If you want to record your own voice and hear it played back as dog sounds, open the human to dog translator in the app instead. The sound library lets you pick an effect directly.
