| | Pets rule Gen Z and Millenial finances | If you're a Millennial or Gen Z pet parent, you know that pets aren't just animals anymore; they're family. And these generations are proving it by driving a huge shift in how we spend on our furry friends. Gone are the days when basic kibble and toys sufficed. Now pet care includes everything from gourmet meals to high-tech wearables and even spa days. | It's no surprise that both Millennials and Gen Z are willing to splurge on their pets. Millennials are all about high-quality veterinary care and organic, premium food options, while Gen Z is leading the charge with new pet innovations—think health-tracking collars or raw food diets. And it's not just about necessities; the trend toward pet apparel, eco-friendly products, and grooming services is taking off, too. | When the holidays roll around, it's not uncommon for pet gifts to rival the human ones, with pet owners spending up to $100 on their animals. That's because, for many of us, pets aren't just pets—they're our companions, our comfort, and our family. This deep bond is fueling an entirely new market for pet goods and services, with younger generations prioritizing convenience, health, and sustainability in their purchases. | It's clear: as pets continue to hold such an important place in our lives, we're investing more to give them the best—and they're loving every minute of it! |

| | Thanks to Money.com for sponsoring The Daily Dig! | | How Far Can Dogs Hear? | Ever wonder how far your dog can hear? Spoiler alert: it's a lot farther than you can! | While we humans can hear sounds between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, dogs can hear frequencies ranging from 40 Hz to 60,000 Hz! This means they can pick up sounds that are both lower and much higher than what we can detect. | If you can hear a clap from 50 feet away, your dog could catch it from 200 feet or more. It's like the difference between seeing a flashlight nearby versus a lighthouse beam miles away—dogs' hearing is on another level! | This keen hearing helps dogs perform their many roles—whether they're working as service dogs, police dogs, or even just keeping an eye out for a squirrel in the yard. Their ears can swivel around independently, allowing them to detect sounds from all directions, even those in the distance. Dogs are especially good at hearing high-pitched sounds, such as a dog whistle, which we can't hear at all. | So, when you're wondering why your dog reacts to something you can't hear, it's likely because they're catching noises well beyond our capabilities. Whether it's a faint rustle of leaves, a distant car engine, or the high-pitched squeak of a toy, your dog's hearing makes them incredibly tuned in to their environment! |
