This mini digital camera, rechargeable via USB, easily attaches to your pet’s collar and will then allow you to see what your furry little friend is up to when you’re not around.

Just clip the lightweight digital camera to your pet’s collar and you’ll be able to take up to 40 photos to document their shenanigans. The camera has an auto interval mode that can be set to snap pictures at 1, 5 or 15 minute intervals. At 640 x 480 resolution the quality isn’t too shabby either.

All that’s left for you to do is hook up the camera to your PC or Mac and check out what sort of mischief Rover and Tiddles have been getting up to in your absence. Small and light enough for most cats and dogs.

The Pet’s Eye View Camera is available from the IWOOT for £39.99 (about $66 USD).

This patented Cesar Millan in a jar device is said to be able to “quickly and humanely restore peace and quiet to a home vexed by a dog’s excessive barking”.

No special collar is required; when a dog barks within 25′ of the unit, it emits a harmless ultrasonic tone, inaudible to humans, that startles the animal into silence. The dog quickly associates its bark with the unpleasant sound, which conditions him to curb this undesirable behavior.

The unit can also be activated manually to help you correct a dog’s other bad habits, such as lying on furniture or foraging through the trash.

The Indoor Barking Dog Deterrent measures 3(H) x 5(W) x 2 1/2(D) inches and requires one 9-volt battery. The product is available from the Hammacher Schlemmer website for $49.95.

This cute looking Pack of Dogs bookshelf have been created by NEL – “a collective of designers who join forces to explore, through concept and form, the interaction in design between traditional materials and techniques, and new processes or unusual applications.”

The pieces are made in different materials and techniques. Some pieces were made through traditional woodworking techniques, using scraps of solid wood like tzalam, ash, red oak, poplar, alder, walnut, and pine, which makes every piece unique, while other pieces are ade in birch plywood using a CNC router, or even in ceramic.
