Sounddogs

In 1990, Gregory King and Nelson Ferrera formed the original Sound Dogs Inc. as a sound editorial company in Toronto, Canada. In 1991, Robert Nokes was appointed as an assistant of King. In 1995 Greg King moved to Los Angeles along with Rob Nokes. Paul Huntsman of Todd-AO introduced them to Robert Grieve, who six years earlier had declined to become a founding partner of Soundelux. Together they formed "Sound Dogs USA" in Los Angeles, California. In 1998 they received invitation for a meeting with Kleiner Perkins, a Silicon Valley Venture Capital firm. They later worked with giant companies like Apple, Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, Avid Technology, and Digital River. Around 1999, Nelson Ferreira partnered with Stephen Barden at Sound Dogs Toronto. In late 2001, Sound Dogs Inc. (King, Grieve) and Sounddogs.com (Nokes) split amicably and remain close working partners. Sound Dogs New York was started by Stephen Barden around 2005. In the late 2000s King formed a sound design firm called The Dawgs Sound Design, which later became King SoundWorks. Currently, there are three separately owned Sounddogs companies: Sounddogs.com, owned by Rob Nokes; King SoundWorks (formally known as SoundDogs USA), owned by Greg King and SoundDogs Canada, owned by Nelson Ferreira. == Content partners ==

In November 2004, Rob Nokes acquired the sound library and trademark of SoundStorm, a sound editorial company nominated for eight Academy Awards. SoundStorm's corporate predecessor was a company called Walla Works, which had employed the founding partners of Soundelux, another sound editorial company. On November 17, 2014, the Todd-Soundelux Trademarks (Todd AO and Soundelux) and Copyrights (Sound Effects Library) were also acquired in Federal Bankruptcy Court by Rob Nokes of Sounddogs.com, Inc. Nokes purchased all of Todd-Soundelux's library assets and trademarks, which included The Hollywood Edge. In January 2020, Sound Ideas finished acquiring Sounddogs.com. == Staff ==
