Like the 30% of Americans who adopted a pet during the pandemic, dog mom Brittany and her husband got their first puppy, a French Bulldog named Frank, during lockdown.

While Brittany was working from home, Frank was always by her side. She says that Frank has always been “...quite the handful, pushing us to our limits with his insane antics and adorableness.” Once Brittany went back to the office, Frank developed some separation anxiety.

Over 70% of pet owners report their dogs reporting symptoms of separation anxiety. Separation anxiety symptoms include barking or howling, chewing, having accidents, or escaping.

One day when Brittany and her husband were out, Frank was lounging upstairs, and began to start exploring. He started climbing up the couch and eventually up the pony wall and onto the wood divider. Frank got stuck on the divider and began to panic, and started to cry and howl.

Suddenly, Brittany received a Dog Activity Alert from her Furbo at home. Opening the notification, she saw that Frank was stuck and in clear distress. Using Furbo's two-way audio, she was able to calm Frank with her voice and guide him down from his stuck position. Thanks to her guidance, Frank landed on the couch unharmed."

“We have now dealt with his anxiety so he quietly sleeps on the couch now. Thanks Furbo!”

The Furbo 360°Dog Camera with Furbo Dog Nanny Service provides real-time alerts for activity, barking, howling, and crying. The 2-way audio feature allows you to communicate with and hear your dog; since your voice can help calm your dog, this is perfect for the most anxious of pups.
