What Are Scat Mats?

Have you ever heard of such a silly thing?  Let me tell you, it may be a silly name but what a great product.  Scat mats can actually be purchased in different sizes or shapes.  What they do is deter your dog (or cat for that matter) from getting onto or into an area that you do not want them in. 

These mats are very sensitive devices that are run off from a regular 9 volt battery.  What you do is place them on areas where you do not want your pets.  For example, they have a scat mat that is long enough to fit on a sofa.  So, if you have a dog that is getting onto your sofa and you want them to stop, then this is a great option to deter that behavior.  All you do is place the scat mat on your sofa and when the pet jumps up there they will experience a mild harmless three second static pulse.  This does not harm your pet, but will surprise them and again deter them from getting onto that couch.  Since these run all the time, you can be training your dog to stop a certain behavior even when you are not around.  They also come in strips that you can place in a doorway so if you are trying to keep your pets out of a certain room then this would help with that. 

So, again, a scat mat is an item that you can use to help deter or train your dog or cats from jumping onto certain areas or items or to even keep them out of certain areas.  They are so simple to use and work so effectively.  Again, a silly name, but a very effective device to assist you with your pet training.

What is a Pet Video Cam?

Ever wonder exactly what your dog or cat is up to when you are not around?  Or maybe you would like to know where they run off too if they escape the home or yard?  That is what the Pet Video Cam is for.  The EYENIMAL by Dogtek is the first video camera in the world that is meant to be worn by your pet or pets.  This is a camera with 4 GB of flash memory and lithium-ion battery power source.  That means that you can get up to about two and a half hours worth of footage from your animals adventures.  The camera is designed so that it fits all standard dog and cat collars and is adjustable to your pets posture.  It is also very light weight at only 1.2 oz so you don't have to worry about your dog or cat being weighed down by heavy equipment.  The other great thing, the casing to the camera helps protect it from wet or humid conditions.  

So, now, you can film your animals during the times that you want or that your not at home to see what they are up to.  Myself, I just want to know which of my two trouble makers likes to get into the garbage the minute I walk out of the house, lol.

Remote Door Opener

There is a new product out that I would like to tell you about.  It is called the EasyOut Remote Pet Door Opener.  The EasyOut is the only product of its kind currently on the market.  This device can be placed on any single or double latch crate, pen, kennel, or door that has a basic lateral motion latching mechanism that does not require you to squeeze or lift it in order to unlatch it. 

This just made your life a lot easier.  You can place the remote in any convenient location or because it is on a key chain, it can always be on hand. With a simple push of a button from several floors or up to 50 yards away, you can unlatch the pets crate allowing them to be released without you having to walk to the crate or pen to do it yourself.  Now, if you want to let them out when you first get up in the morning without running right to the crate, just push the button.  If your pets are crated outside and it is cold or raining, no more need for you to walk out in the elements, just push the button and let them come to you!

I always get excited with new products and this is one I am definitely happy with.  As always, at baddogsupplies.com, we try to stay updated on new dog products that are coming on the market and keep you up to date on training tools that are available.  If there are ever any questions or concerns we are always here to assist you.  Check us out.  We have great prices and friendly, family oriented service so you won't be disappointed.  Thanks for stopping by.
