Bizarre: Commercial Specifically Aimed for Dogs Only

by Dr. Chris

A dog food commercial that features high frequency signals that only dogs can hear is being played now in Austria, and possibly soon here in America.

Nestle Purina, one of the largest dog food makers in the world will likely roll out the ad out to more countries soon. They hope that dogs will respond to the ad positively and therefore entice their owners to go out and buy the pet food.

In the ad there are squeaking sounds and bells. There is also a high frequency tone that most people will barely be able to hear.

Humans can only hear sounds up to 20,000 kHz, dogs can hear sounds at frequencies reaching 40,000kHz.

The ad below if for Beneful Dog Food. This is the one that recently aired in Austria.

Can you hear the added squeaks and bell?
