# Noise-Cancelling Kennels The Ford Quiet Kennel Gives Dogs a Place to Hide From Fireworks By Justin Lam | Published 2018-12-18 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-quiet-kennel References: [cnet](https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/ford-noise-canceling-kennel-prototype/) & [motor1](https://www.motor1.com/news/297946/ford-quiet-kennel-dog-house/) Loud noises can often stress out pets, but thankfully [Ford](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-mode) has developed the Ford Quiet Kennel to help solve this issue. Utilizing [noise-canceling technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wireless-headsets1), this [unique dog kennel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-kennel-trunk) takes on the same innovations seen in vehicles to help create a quiet haven for skittish dogs. Like other noise-canceling systems, the Ford Quiet Kennel uses external microphones to pick up the sound of fireworks, and other loud noises and a speaker works inside to emit an opposing frequency. This cancels out the offending noise and ensures the inside maintains a calm and fairly sound-proof environment. While the Ford Quiet Kennel would be an amazing standalone offering, the kennel is actually being used to showcase the new noise-canceling hardware found in the Ford Edge SUV. In this regard, the kennel serves as a marvelous piece of marketing that also offers dog owners a way to better the lives of their pets.
