NEW YORK—You think your dog is pretty smart. But is your pet smart enough to digest Leo Tolstoy and Jane Austen?

The folks behind Audible, the Amazon-owned company and largest seller of narrated books, want your dog to listen to Anna Karenina, Pride and Prejudice and other classic literature. The company is teaming up with famed Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan on an aptly named new service called Audible For Dogs.

The pitch to pet owners isn’t to turn Fido into a canine scholar but rather to keep him calm and happy when you leave for work.

“I’m always looking for ways where people don’t feel guilty, worried, (or) stressed when they leave their dogs alone,” Millan told USA TODAY.
