The research

Not vibes. Science.

A growing body of canine behavior research finds that music can help dogs settle.

  • 72.5%

    of dogs showed at least one problem behavior, such as noise sensitivity, fear or aggression

    Salonen et al. · Scientific Reports · 2020
  • 32%

    were sensitive to noise — the most common anxiety-related trait in the study

    Salonen et al. · Scientific Reports · 2020

In shelter and kennel studies, dogs rested more and barked less while classical music played.

Wells et al. · Animal Welfare · 2002 · Kogan et al. · J Vet Behav · 2012

These studies looked at music in general, not at Barkwoo.

Why we built this

It started with our dog, Moncher.

“Our older dog, Moncher, started suffering from chronic allergies — restless, uncomfortable, hard to settle. The breakthrough was a finding we kept landing on in the research: shelter dogs rested more and barked less when classical music played. Music helped Moncher feel more serene and less concerned about his symptoms. The problem was every solution sat in one room — and Moncher's discomfort travelled with him. So we built one that travels too.”

How does the Barkwoo Music Box work?

The Barkwoo Music Box clips directly to your dog's collar and plays preloaded calming music from there. One press of a button starts the playlist — no phone, WiFi, or app needed. Your dog hears the music wherever they go, not just in the room with a speaker.

How long does the battery last?

The Barkwoo Music Box plays for almost a full day on one charge. It arrives charged, and a full recharge over USB-C takes about an hour. The USB-C port is under the grey flap on its side, and the cable is in the box.

Can I add my own music to the Barkwoo Music Box?

Yes. Plug the Barkwoo Music Box into your computer's USB port and drag-and-drop your own MP3 files. You can build a personalized playlist alongside the preloaded calming tracks.

What if it doesn't help?

Send it back within 30 days for a refund. Returns are free: email contact@barkwoo.com with your order number and we'll send the steps.
