TV For Your Dog

NY Times:

Plenty of things will grab a dog’s attention: squirrels, tennis balls, funny smells, other dogs. But a TV channel?

Absolutely, say the makers of DogTV, the first cable network to deliver 24-hour programming for dogs. The idea, they say, is that flipping on the channel while you go out for the day will keep your pet stimulated, entertained and relaxed. Call it “Sesame Street” for those who will never learn their ABCs.

The shows on DogTV are actually three to six-minute segments featuring grassy fields, bouncing balls and humans rubbing dog tummies. There are also segments featuring noiseless vacuum cleaners and muted doorbells to help make dogs more comfortable around such common household agitations.

    How cool. Yes, we leave the radio on for our pets. It is definitely true that a dark, silent home when owners leave for work can make pets very anxious, bored..maybe even, destructive. It follows then: allowing them to have ‘life sounds and views’ is a positive notion – makes all the sense in the world.
