The marvel of technology

Hey guys. I have been away from here for a while. The poll on the main page looks familiar, but some things must have changed around here. I just had a Skype call with my mom and sister. We are 9 time zones apart, so it does not happen every day. Still, with so many things to talk about, we sure spent a lot of time having my sister's dog and my dogs try to discuss their issues. Actually, it was mostly my sister's dog interacting and my dogs staring blankly at...who knows. My sister's dog is obsessed with watching TV and videos on tablets. I never knew dogs could be so observant about the content they watch, but whenever you turn on the TV in my sister's living room, her dog comes running (she loves that TV show with the German Shephard police dog). When watching an animal video on a tablet, she will push the screen with her nose and on today's Skype call, she could clearly tell the difference between me holding one of my dogs up to the camera and holding up one of their stuffed animals. Oh, and a Happy Birthday to me :-\

so your dog is becoming like a modern human: always looking at a screen (phone, ipad..) otherwise oblivious as REAL life carries on around them. seen large tour groups as in busses loaded with people travelling to 'exotic' and 'interesting' destinations - ignoring the sights / tour commentary because too busy doing assbook and twatter etc. (... mona lisa's never been so lonely.)

There's a YouTube video of a Westie that watches TV! Wonder if it is your sister's dog. My Westie, 13 years old, is to lazy to do anything but sleep. Also, Technology is WONDERFUL, when it works.
gotta love those dogs

A couple of comments on this. My sister's dog is a Westie, but since I didn't mention that, I am a bit disturbed by your apparent remote viewing powers :~ I checked out a couple of YouTube videos of Westies watching TV and although they are doing some of the same things my sister's dog does when watching TV, there are no videos of my sister's dog out there.

Thank you, Peter. I think I can live without the Soapbox. It looks like there is a section for pictures now - I think that is new.

It is... but it shows that you have been long "afk"
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
