Dog TV --- The First Television Channel for Dogs

[The Fat Man]

Not surprised that something like this exists. Funny part, people will pay for this channel (cough cough my mother-in-law cough cough). Then you will have those who will complain that $5 for one channel is outrageous (cough cough my father-in-law cough cough). In all, this is where I personally say that we have too many channels out there. If we have room for something like this, we should start incorporating some international channels in English to go with our international packages. I'm speaking of CBC, BBC, etc.

William Holden and Peter Finch would have approved. And would have already added the Cat Channel(all hairballs all the time).

 

[papalittle]

I polled all 3 of my dogs and none of them are willing to cough up the money each month for this channel which is OK with me since they watch too much TV now....or is that the kids watch too much....damn memory.

I wonder if the channel line-up will look something like this:

4:00 pm - Lassie
5:00 pm - Dog Whisperer
6:00 pm - Scooby-Doo
6:30 pm - Dog, The Bounty Hunter
7:00 pm - The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show (Red Carpet Special)
8:00 pm - The 136th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show

And show movies like Beethoven, Benji, Cujo and Old Yeller.

Some people don't understand that 1 person = 1 request per channel, not 1 request a day = 365 requests per channel.

i know only 1 request per channel per account.

And show movies like Beethoven, Benji, Cujo and Old Yeller.

Old Yeller is in the canine horror genre.

If you have a cat, this channel IS FearNet for him!

I was expecting Roseanne Barr 24 x 7

Believe it or not I actually did have a dog that would watch TV. Only when there were dogs on. Animal Planet was her favorite channel and Dog Whisperer was her favorite program. I have had many dogs in my life, but only one that would actually watch TV.

RIP Maggie, a wonderful Chinese SharPei who I will never forget............

 

[rogerpl]

Sorry, those were before my time I guess....

Bite me!
Oh and by the way Sergeant Preston's dog was named King.
As long as I'm traveling back in time there is Roy Roger's dog bullet.

 

[chiodo]

My Dog isn't interested in TV, she finds it noisy and annoying and $4.99/ month can buy half a roasted BBQ Chicken, once a month.

My dog's TV is lying out in the yard looking at all the weirdo's and other dogs going by or sitting in the back of my truck barking at other dogs on the streets.
as for advertising well nothing beats a trip to the pet superstore and sniffing all the smoked bones down the treats aisle or sniffing new brands of dog food, course the grooming and shampoo section is to be avoided
it's also near the in store vet clinic another reason it should be avoided.

But Dog TV could be useful to some dogs.

 

[gjh3260]

my dog is licking his chops over this channel. Now if I can get him to take out the garbage and load and empty the dishwasher then he could earn the $4.99/month but until then no bow wow channel for him

And show movies like Beethoven, Benji, Cujo and Old Yeller.

Don't forget the sci-fi, superhero genre: C.H.O.M.P.S.

 

[cosmo_kramer]

Also, don't forget this after hours series, for adult dogs only:

Leg Work (TV Series 1987) - IMDb

which unfortunately has nothing to do with dogs, but has a title they can appreciate....

Animal Planet was her favorite channel and Dog Whisperer was her favorite program. .

Of course, Dog Whisperer is on the National Geographic Channel, not Animal Planet.

 

[Lazy Senior]

Of course, Dog Whisperer is on the National Geographic Channel, not Animal Planet.

Actually it is on Nat Geo Wild. When Maggie was alive in the mid 2000's it was on Nat Geo. I never watch the show myself but my wife likes it. So did Maggie the SharPei. I am more a Pawn Star, American Chopper type of guy.

 

[GaryPen]

I refuse to call it Nat Geo. I'm tired of the dumbing down of America. As such, I will continue to refer to it as National Geographic, even if it is filled with reality-type crap that would have the founders of the magazine spinning in their sarcophagi.

OTOH, at least it's better than "The Learning Channel", where the only thing I've learned is how annoying families with too many kids are. Or, the Science Channel, where flinging pumpkins is considered a science.

 

[dare2be]

Or Syfy...notice they removed both the Science and the Fiction with the name change (and also from the content), and now it's just Silly Fantasy

 

[GaryPen]

And ghost hunters.

In fact ghost-related shows are all over the place. BIO has become The Ghost Channel.

It's as if all of the "cable" networks are run by the gang from Scooby Doo. (which might also explain Dog TV.)
