| Light or TV ??? Do you leave a light on, or the TV on, for your pet(s), if you are going to be gone for a while? We leave the light on at night, in the room where the doggy door is -- helps them to see better . If we are going to be gone for most of the day, we leave the TV on playing Classic Country songs. |

| We leave a light on if it is going to get dark while we are gone.And sometimes we leave the radio on too.I found a tv station on my radio and play that for them,hehe.I also think it would sound more like we are home if anyone would think about breaking in.

| We always leave a light on and play smooth jazz or light classical music very low for Sophie if we're not home for a little while.

| I'm very happy to see that I'm not the only one that does the music and light! It has been proven that music does sooth the soul of animals also. Therefor, whatever music we normally listen to, they are used to also, and listening to that when we are gone, makes the waiting not quite as bad. How was that for a very long sentence??? |

| Whenever I leave, we always leave the animal planet on the tv, and the lights on. It has always been a habit with me since going to college for my first degree. I went to FSU where Ted Bundy was going. Since then, I always have things on during the day for the pups, and at night. I never come into, or leave the pups alone, in a dark unlit house. It's just not safe. |

| Lights only Rem reacts to sounds on the TV (doorbell sounds; that car commercial that has the dogs and squeeky toys; he knows the ESPN song) and these things cause him to bark... don't want him upset while we are out esp since we are in a condo |

| Lights and TV. The tv helps to drown out any outside noises that might disturb her.

| Leave the tv on. I think it's more comforting to hear voices. )) |
