Cameras

Do you or have your ever had a camera set up at home for watching your woofs whilst you're gone?

A friend of mine has installed an IP camera to watch their little owl as he's out during the day and they like to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't go near the Raccoon cage. Just wondering if it might be worth me installing a couple so I can watch what Knox gets up to when we're not there? It might help decipher what's actually going on and why sometimes he's destructive. Only issue is is they're live feed and I can image me watching him all day long!!! I'm slightly obsessive about stuff

Big Brother for dogs!

Well yes exactly. I wanna see if he's bored or if it's stress/anxiety related so I can then go down the right route for treating him you see.

Are you going to have a diary room?

If you want to see what he's like when you're out, might as well go for it. Though if you think he's got some anxiety or whatever, it's not going to help you get to the root cause of it, of course.

it would help me know which way to go about trying to resolve the issue. May get in touch with a dog behaviorist as recommended by my vet too

One of our supporting members Jola did that with her dog Debo. Just to see how he behaved and from what I can remember he just got on the couch and went to sleep

I have heard of people doing it before, yes you would probably have hours of a dog snoozing, hopefully

hmm well I think Knox is a little more excitable when we're not there. little bugger

Yes I had a camera set up for when I was at work I was worried that she might be getting upset while I was at work, but it was a boring watch all she did was sleep

This is like the one I have but you can also get ones that go on their collars if they have roam of the house.. I got mine when she was a puppy and confined to a puppy play pen
