I Heard That
Our dogs hear ~everything.~ Each crinkle of paper, every whisper, everything, and they hear it at about 4 times the distance that a human can. They hear higher pitched sounds that we cannot hear, which is often why they bark at loud noises like vacuums.
Development
Puppies are actually born deaf and cannot hear until they are at least 21 days old. It’s during this time that they rely heavily on their scene of smell to interpret their world.
