A Wireless Camera to Help Train your Dog + A Giveaway

A few months ago I did something very bad. I know, it’s so out of character for me seeing as how I’m always on my best behavior (at least that’s what I tell everyone). In my defense though, I didn’t really feel like being left home alone with Trooper at his house.

I began to regret my unfortunate decision to leave my “mark” on Trooper’s brand-new door when mom announced that I would have to stay in my crate whenever I am left alone at my buddy’s house.

The crate?? But don’t they know how much I HATE being left in that thing!

So thus began the adventure of my mom conditioning me to enjoy (as much as one can) being in my crate at Trooper’s house.

You may remember a few weeks ago I introduced you to a new Wireless Camera that mom and dad used to keep an eye on me when they were away from home. Well the Vimtag Camera began to play an important role in my crate training as well.

After setting me up in my crate with a fun toy filled with peanut butter, mom would set up the Vimtag Camera before heading out the door.

With the ability to view my every move from the Vimtag Wireless App, mom would head out the stable to watch my progress with my buddy Boomerang.

Starting with short sessions to being with, she’d leave me in a crate for 10 – 15 minutes at a time.

With the ability to not only see what I was doing, but also hear whether I was crying or barking too, mom was able to time coming back into the house to release me from my crate at a moment when I had actually calmed down and relaxed.

Thus the Vimtag Camera made it possible for her to only release me when I was in a calm state, rewarding me for being quiet and patient.

Thanks to Vimtag, I’m getting more and more comfortable with being in my crate at Trooper’s house. Mom says it’s been invaluable to my training, and made the process go so much quicker!

Friday Fetch: All-In-One Smart Dog Collar

I’m already a “GPS Dog”, with my trusty Trax collar that I love, but I couldn’t help but take notice of the new indiegogo campaign to fund Dogtelligent’s Connected Collar. The Connected Collar is a a proposed GPS Tracker, Activity Monitor, Safety Collar and Training Device all in one. Just check out the video below to see what it’s all about!

The most interesting thing to me was the ability for the Connected Collar to simulate a leash tug through vibrations – to perhaps keep your dog from running into traffic, or going too far from home. I can’t wait to see how these collars perform once they make it into production. There’s still 25 days to get involved with funding the Connected Collar into production, and eventually you’ll be able to fetch them from DogTelligent.

Upgraded

Mom was a little bit behind the times – in regards to her phoning capabilities.

I may have had a little something to do with those “scratches” on mom’s phone. In my defense, flip phones are extremely hard to navigate when you have paws!

And forget about texting….it was nearly impossible for me to accomplish! Thankfully it was time for an upgrade, via the iPhone 4! Yipee!

Mom said she’d show me how to use it for twitter, facebooking, checking my e-mail, posting artwork in my shop, and updating my blog. I can’t wait! Perhaps I should wear gloves this time though….just to be safe.
