Well, it’s official.
The world has run out of ideas. I
was reading a blog that was talking about a channel available on Cox and Time
Warner cable in San Diego called Dog TV.
Sound good? Well, if it was a
channel that was all about man’s best friend I would think it was a great idea
too but that is not what it is about. It
is, ready for this….. a channel FOR your dog to watch!
You heard me; it is for your dog to watch. It is scientifically tested to be interesting
to your dog. They claim that your poor
dog is home all day alone and is bored so they developed a channel for
them. Only in America! Think your pooch will get bored with the
content, not a chance because “DOGTV is
working hard to produce fresh content all the time, so your dog will always get
new, exciting visual and auditory stimulations." How would you advertise this service? The sad thing is, I bet their successful. I am willing to bet that there are people out
there willing to pay a monthly fee for DogTV.
It is a pay channel so that is how they make money but let
me ask you this, would you leave your TV on all day so your dog isn’t bored? I didn’t think so. The blog even mentioned that “For the busy dogs on the go, DOGTV also
offers a YouTube channel
and a Twitter feed ” What’s next, driving school for Fido? You could even check out their web site at www.dogtv.com
