The 'CleverPet Hub' is a dog-friendly entertainment console that keeps pets happy and healthy while their owner is out. The product is currently on display at CES 2016 and it coincides with the release of a number of other [connected pet products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auto-pet-feeder).

The CleverPet Hub is a game console that is designed specifically for dogs. The device itself consists of a light pad, [food dish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kanoodle-dog-edition) and a speaker. When the dog reacts to the light pad or audio accordingly, the console will spit out a reward automatically. The sequences vary, which means certain games require touching the light pad at the correct moment, following a specific light pattern or reacting to recorded sounds. The device is connected to WiFi and owners can customize the frequency of the games with the accompanying app. As a result, owners can ensure that their dog remains entertained even when left alone.
