If you're a loving dog parent who spends many hours away from your pet during the work week, these new audiobooks could keep your canine company in your absence.
While many people opt to leave the radio or television on for their furbabies, renowned Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan suggests that listening to an audiobook could actually be better for them.
Cesar Millan has teamed up with Amazon's subsidiary, Audible, to launch an audiobook service of selected stories directed at your four-legged friend.
According to Millan's Dog Psychology Center, audiobooks are more effective at calming down stressed-out dogs than music.
The concept is pretty simple: pet owners turn on an audiobook before they leave for work in the morning. The sound of a calming, human voice reading a story is supposed to help soothe your pup to and make them feel less alone.

You can try it out yourself by downloading Cesar Millan's Guide to Audiobooks for Dogs. The titles are handpicked by Millan and each one includes an introduction by Millan explaining why each book is good for dogs.
Some books on the list include stories featuring doggie heroes such as: The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein, and A Dog's Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron.
Millan also suggests that dog owners play an audiobook that is spoken in their own gender. So, if you are a woman, select books that are read aloud by female voices.
While it is a good idea, you don't have to follow all of Millan's suggestions to the letter. Anyone can access his videos for free on the website and shop outside the list of dog-selected audiobooks.
New listeners can get a 30-day membership trial at Audible that includes one free audiobook.
