Leaving your dog alone at home while you go to work or study is a concern. Dogs often suffer from loneliness, boredom, depression, or separation anxiety when you are not around. To avoid that, what better than leaving the screen on with DOGTV, the first television channel for dogs that broadcasts 24 hours a day.
A common problem for pet owners is having to leave their dog alone at home. In such circumstances, dogs can suffer from loneliness, boredom, depression, or separation anxiety when their owner is away. If that's your case, DOGTV offers a great alternative. Created with the help of a group of canine behavior specialists, DOGTV's programming is designed to keep dogs entertained when they are alone at home or experiencing stressful situations.
Programming for Dogs
DOGTV offers original content approved by the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) and includes three different categories: Relaxation, Stimulation, and Exposure. Relaxation programs reduce stress with soothing music and visual effects; stimulation programs encourage movement and fun; and exposure programs help dogs become comfortable and habituated to everyday stimuli. These episodes show scenes from daily life, such as a trip to the park or a walk through the city, lasting between three and six minutes, and have been adjusted to the most pleasing colors and sounds for dogs.
The channel was launched in 2012 in the United States and has produced more than two thousand programs to date, including The DOGTV Hour, which is designed to be enjoyed by dogs and their owners. DOGTV is a premium cable channel linked with DirecTV, among other TV services, and is also available on the internet. In fact, you can watch most of its content on its YouTube channel and show it to your dog to see how it reacts when you have to leave him alone at home.
