Introducing DOGTV





In what is surely another another portent of The Horkening, there's a new cable channel called DOGTV. The thing is, it's not a channel for dog lovers with shows featuring brave St. Bernards rescuing snowbound skiers and Black Labs fetching sticks. Nope. It's actually a channel meant to be watched by dogs.


Come on, admit it. You always knew the day was coming when dogs would have their own television channel. Now, it’s a reality. Commercial and rerun-free DOGTV is currently offered to cable subscribers in San Diego, with a national launch planned in the near future. For about $4.99 a month, people gain access to content with visual and auditory aids that are tailor-made for dogs.


So people are supposed to leave their televisions on all day while they're at work to watch it. What happened to soup bones and destroying furniture?

They're just trying to bring dogs down to our level. If it works, cable companies might realize it makes sense to unbundle channels.

My worry is that, if it works, there will be more dog channels and even a cat channel. Then come the remotes for dogs.
