"Finally, one thing worked: playing classical music or other instrumental tracks that didn't have intense percussion.

One of Margot's trainers recommended Through a Dog's Ear, a series of slow-tempo, predominantly piano compositions designed to help reduce stress in dogs. It was created by Joshua Leeds, a psychoacoustic expert (who studies how sound is perceived), and Susan Wagner, a veterinary neurologist, who have studied the effects of this music on dogs. They observed over 150 dogs in private homes and kennels and found that more than 70% of kennel dogs and 80% of dogs in homes exhibited fewer anxiety symptoms (including pacing, trembling, and panting) after listening to predominantly piano music."
