    I swear that screens of any kind are absolutely invisible to my dog. He just does not care one bit. Though I know he’s listening, because if we’re binge watching a show over a bunch of nights, he’ll pick up on the closing theme of said show as a cue for someone to put him to bed in his crate (which he loves more than anything in the world).

    This has been tested by our humming the current closing theme at any time of day, and then watching him run into his crate.

      That’s adorable

      I’ve heard that low refresh rate is why it can seem invisible to dogs. 60Hz is too slow for them to register the motion because they see the flickering between frames.

      Conversely, mine watches all television if it’s on, and is most interested in cartoon voices/noises and animal content. He adores horses/cows.

      He even watches scary shows, like the last of us, and growls at the clickers. I literally paused it and thought “is this show age appropriate for my dog?”

      The focus is impressive, he clearly sees/gets…something… out of it, but in general does not seem distressed

    “Violently licking her own vagina” are not words you often see people end articles with.

    Except for political news, of course.
