How well do dogs hear?

Featured Replies

It's been my understand that dogs can hear higher frequencies than us, but what about lower ones? How about the bandwidth of our voice?

 

When I'm training my dog, I use alot of body language with verbal commands and she's right on target with me. But when I stop moving and just give verbal commands she doesn't seem to pick up unless I say the word just right.

 

Was wondering, to what capacity do dogs hear our words? How do they interpret this apparent "charlie brown" gibberish?
