The Sleeping World: Neighborhood Stroll with a Dog

Wind down by escaping into nature. Part soundscape and part bedtime story, The Sleeping World is an intimate journey through ecologies around the world. Dogs are a familiar and comforting part of many of our lives. In this episode, we take a walk with a pet xoloitzcuintli, or Mexican hairless dog, as he greets his blocks by smell. Along the way, we learn the backstory of squirrels in U.S. cities and observe the very smart and clean neighborhood raccoon. This is the world in its natural state, defined by seasons, routines, and cycles. By the time this dog is back home, curled up under a blanket and starting to drift off to the patter of rain, you’ll be ready to drift off too.
