Street Dogs is a collection of field recordings from a sleeping city with a huge population of free-ranging dogs.
Many of us have likely worked on nighttime scenes where the bark of a dog in an empty street adds just the right touch of depth, desolation, and a sense of space. A few well-known recordings of this type are commonly utilized, but Street Dogs offers a broad range of fresh, untapped tracks of stray dogs.
Captured in nightly streets with natural acoustics, this collection features a variety of locations and perspectives, including both individual dogs and groups. Additionally, there are several chilling captures of dog fights that will make the hairs on your neck stand up.
The recordings were made in AB stereo with a spaced pair of microphones, providing a wide stereo width that creates an expansive, vivid listening experience on speakers. This setup also allows for flexibility, enabling you to narrow the stereo width as needed, making the recordings perfect elements for crafting detailed and immersive ambiences.
Every track has been thoroughly edited and tagged with metadata.
Disclaimer: All recordings are genuine field captures; there was no interaction with the animals during the recording process. Any dog fights captured in the recordings were not initiated by the recordist.

Shiba dog is a collection of dog sounds recorded in our studio. We brought two Shibas to the studio and let them play with each other. One of them is a very vocal dog and the other one is very quiet. This allowed us to capture a wide variety of sounds, from barking to panting, without a lot of overlapping.
We recorded everything with four microphones to get the most out of this session. We included all the good takes in this collection, so each sound is covered with at least three microphones. The following microphones were used:
• Line Audio CM3 small diaphragm condenser (cardioid)
• Line Audio OM1 small diaphragm condenser (omni)
• Rode NT2000 large diaphragm condenser (cardioid)
• Rode NTG3 shotgun
A big thank you goes out to Jory Prum for helping out with planning and recording!
No animals were harmed or mistreated during the recording of this collection.

A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
