Just a Yorkie question... reply! I live with my dad and I go to school and he goes to work. Normally he leaves for work at 6.30 AM and I leave for school around 7.00 AM. Since we don't want Autumn home alone for so long (I'm the first to return... around 4.15'ish) We have a friend try and stop by every day around noon so she can go out side, have somebody to be with, and have someone to set her food out. When she is alone we keep a baby gate up that seperates some of the house that allows Autumn to roam wherever she may want to go through out the kitchen, dining room, and laundry room/ entrance way. I was wondering if it would be a good thing to leave a tv running or even the radio that way she is used to the sounds of someone talking instead of just silence? Or is this not a good idea? |
I leave cartoon network on for my 2 when I'm at work. Animal planet would have too many animal sounds and they would go crazy. :D |
We always leave t.v. on for Logan. We used to leave on animal planet, but realized they were showing the same shows over and over again. He likes cartoons, so cartoon network or disney channel. And we recently got movie challenges so we've been leaving movies on for him. He really gets into action movies. |
My dogs dont pay any attention to the tv but sometimes I leave the radio on for them. |
Absolutely. I have ALWAYS left a tv on for my dogs. I usually put it on the movie channels. I autotune it to the movies I like. Like today Matise is watching Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason and Meet the Fockers. I would go crazy if I had to sit home all day in silence, so I don't want Matise to go crazy. |
The music on the radio makes some doggies nervous. TV is best. I think it only helps because it helps to drown out outside noises that may scare them, but I don't think it's a necessity. :) |
I read here that a lot of people do that...but where I keep my dog he cant see the TV. I was going to leave it on, but then my boyfrend was like what if he hears it and thinks that it is us just keeping him cooped up and leaving him alone...so we just dont leave anything on.....is that bad? |
I leave the TV on for my 2 when I'm gone. They seem to like Nickelodean. |
i leave on the tv when im gone, cartoon network also...it keeps them distracted of noises outside. it makes them feel comfortable... |
When we're gone I leave the t.v. on for Samson just so he has something to listen to. I put on Animal Planet. :D |
I also leave the T.V on for Zoe....in fact we have started to leave a radio on for the pups at night..(we keep them in the bathroom) and since we have started to do that they have slept through the night :D last night they slept for 8 hours.... ;) |
We leave the radio on for ours. We are always listening to the radio so they are very use to the sounds of music. They actually do better with it than the TV. |
My girls watch Animal Planet all day while I am gone...I think it helps to relax and not stress while we gone!! |
Have you guys heard of DogCatRadio.com? I saw it on the news in the last few days. Apparently they play "pet friendly" music and sounds. I haven't checked it out yet....maybe I'll do that now...anyway-my only problem is it's on the internet only and my computer is not in the room that my dogs stay during the day. I guess I could move my laptop in, but doesn't the screen saver pop on after a time? hmmmmm....I will have to discover the answers and let you know! |
So, is "Doggie Style" and "Who Let The Dogs Out?" dog friendly? :D |
We always leave the TV on when we leave. We also make sure the A/C is on in the summer and the heat (pretty low -- they do have fur coats) in the winter. We take better care of them than we do ourselves. But. of course that is what you should do, since they have no way of turning up the heat or the A/c if they are too cold or too hot. |
I leave the tv on for my 2. They love animal planet and cartoons. |
We leave the TV on for Miko sometimes on animal planet or cartoons, but other times we leave the radio on for him. He prefers the mellow radio stations. haha :) |
I leave the tv or radio on for Munchie - I figure that's better than dead silence. |

Lucky listens to country music while we are at work. She's my little cowgirl. :) |
Its a great idea to leave the radio on. I don't leave Princess home alone, but I do leave the radio on for the birds. :D |
I leave TV on too . When Iam home it is usually going, so I think that it makes Cassie feel like I am is still around. |
i always leave the tv on when i leave. it put a barrier up from the outside sounds so they do bark and gives them the comfort of thinking :) theres people around |

I leave the tv on CMT while I am at work. It keeps Zoe and Bailey from hearing the noisy neighbors upstairs and any other noise so they won't bark all day. |
