Wireless Pet Communication Devices

'Petzila' Allows You to Stay in Touch with Your Pet All Day

— August 3, 2013 — Lifestyle
Petzila is a device that keeps people in touch with their best friend -- that is, their dog -- at all times.

People have a very strong connection to their dogs and often find it hard to leave for the day to go to work. Petzila is a two-way communicator that was created with separation anxiety in mind. This device needs an AC outlet and Wi-Fi, and it comes with a camera, microphone and speaker. Once you're linked, you can call your dog. To ensure the dog responds to the device, you can click a button that dispenses treats you loaded up in the device earlier that day.

When the dog appears, you'll be able to see him, talk to him, and even take pictures from your end if the time apart is too much to bear.
