|  [News] Doggie Style: Cell Phones, Webcams and GPS for Hounds If you think doggy raincoats by Burberry and canine carriers from Kate Spade are over the top, you'll be appalled by this lineup of state-of-the-art gadgets designed for our furry four-legged friends. Pet ownership around the world is on a steady rise. In Japan, more households had pets than kids in 2006, and a slew of new products geared toward canines has come on the scene to meet this trend. Here's a roundup of some of the coolest tech for dogs from companies in Japan and the United States. A portable, durable camera from Takara Tomy can be hung from your dog's collar and operated by remote control. You can set a timer, triggering the camera to snap photos every few minutes and auto-upload to any Japanese cell phone. http://www.wired.com/gadgets/miscell...1&slideView=11 |

| That little camera could help find a lost pup. You might recognise where he is going. It might also take a pic of a thief in the act. I think it's a great idea.  |

| camera for our babies WOW!!! I absolutely LOVE this idea. OMG, just think....we could see exactly how THEY see the world AND what they do, when they do it and probably WHY they do alot of the things they do. I for one, would pay money to see a video of my Deucy's day!!!!! HE is better entertainment to me than anything else.  |

| Donating YT 500 Club Member  | Looks like it might be the perfect level to shoot photos of the neutered male "implants."  |
