Pet owners, there is no need anymore to carry around that crusty, disgusting, scooper. The Sha-Poopie, created by a poop hater, for a poop hater, allows for dog owners to not have to bend down, or even put out any effort to collect their dogs steaming pile of excrement.

With the Sha-Poopie, the dog does all the work for you. Both ingeniously creative and lazy at the same time. Just how we like them. Available now for $19.95, with additional liners costing $7.95. — Andrew Dobrow

Virtual Guard Dog digitalizes your home security

It’s understandable why some people don’t like dogs. They smell, they’re always feeding on your treasures, and some people have powerful allergic reactions to their shedding fur. But what you gain not having one, you lose in personal home security. The Obscura Digital Dog is a totally fabricated doggy copy. The Obscura software allows users to turn any surface into a guard dog infested area. Beware of virtual dog!

Combining high-definition media and a full-screen canvas the dog looks virtually real. Except for the fact that it’s see-thru, of course. Multiple projections compensate for any video abnormalities. The technology isn’t necessarily mainstream yet, so you’ll have to wait a bit to take this home in a doggy bag. — Andrew Dobrow

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets

Obesity has become a epidemic in many of the world’s leading countries. That’s right, our dogs are huge! Our “time is money” culture gives us very little time to spend giving our pets the proper exercise they need. The Hyperdog Ball Launcher makes sure that your pets’ balls travel to a far distance (giggle). Providing your pet with a further distance to fetch.

The Ball Launcher can sling tennis balls up to 200 feet, about 2/3 the length of a football field. This will ensure your dog either loses weight, or collapses from exhaustion. The sling is made of high quality surgical tubing. Durable enough to last a lifetime (at least your dog’s lifetime). The Launcher comes with 2 tennis balls, just in case one is to roll into a sewer or if one just becomes too covered in slobber to use without vomiting. Available for $30. — Andrew Dobrow

The 3.5 MP camera can be either manned remotely or timed to take a shot every minute. With 8 MB of built in memory, you can send your dog off to the adventure which is your backyard, or into a local park for you urbanites.
