A new digital TV channel promises to deliver programming for -- get this -- "stay-at-home dogs."
Dog TV promises programming like the video above, simulating what a dog might see from a moving car. There'll also be video of dogs playing or "relaxation" programming such as a faraway boat moving across a tranquil lake. A Marketwatch podcast even mentioned dogs like watching "SpongeBob Squarepants."
Here's how DogTV describes its vision:
"DOGTV's subscription-based channel organizes programing into 3 to 6 minutes of relaxing, stimulating and behavior-improving segments that work collaboratively to provide just the right balance for the daily routines of our beloved “stay-at-home” dogs."
Dog TV is a fee-based service, at $5 per month. Marketwatch reports there won't be any commercials, although I can see some crazy marketing trying to figure something out.
