Cesar Millan, better known as "The Dog Whisperer," thinks a reading of Pride and Prejudice might be the cure to dogs' separation anxiety. That's why the famed dog-training guru has teamed up with Audible to make a guide to playing audiobooks for your anxiety-ridden pooch.

Some of the selected titles bear obvious canine connections, like Soldier Dogs: The Untold Story of America's Canine Heroes and A Dog's Purpose. It's less apparent why others, like Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Trevor Noah's Born a Crime, were selected for dog listeners. Millan will apparently explain the "canine appeal" in special video introductions for each audiobook, The Verge reported.
