Third Sector reports that Guide Dogs for the Blind has discovered that pups perform
better during training after listening to classical music. My mutts, Jackal and 
Heidi, have long known about the therapeutic benefits of the classics and regularly
tune into Classic FM…it really chills them out!

I do hope GDB can turn this find into a fundraising initiative and thus look forward
to the prospect of buying my doggies a classical compilation sold in aid of the 
charity for next Christmas. I’m sure the likes of HMV might consider producing this
on a pro bonio basis.
