It’s hard to have peace of mind when you’re not at home and can’t attend to your dogs. What’s worse is if they start misbehaving like barking too loudly, which might upset your neighbors. Luckily, pet cameras are available to give you a sense of security and help ease your separation anxiety. Right now, most pet cameras are also equipped with the function to dispense treats to your pets and interact with them from afar. Save $114 one of the best-selling pet gadgets.

Though not the first treat dispenser/camera combo to hit the market, the Furbo dog camera is packed with lots of innovative features that put it ahead of the competition. This wonderful contraption that is specially designed for your canine companions is available on Amazon for the great price of $135 , as a Prime Day deal.

The Furbo boasts a 1080p full HD camera with night vision that provides livestream video for you to monitor your pet on your phone. It has a 160-degree, wide-angle lens that gives you a full view of the room no matter where it is. It is ideal to put it somewhere high so that your dogs wouldn’t be able to get to it.

This puppy cam lets you toss your dogs treats remotely. Once your dogs get used to the Furbo and not think of it as a scary robot sitting in the corner, you can launch treats their way via the iOS/Android app. Fill it with more than 100 pieces of your dog’s favorite treats and play a game of catch. Round-shaped treats with a diameter of around 0.4 inches work best.

It is also equipped with other awesome features. The Furbo can send you Bark Alerts if your dogs are barking too loudly, and you can talk to them via the two-way audio using the app to calm them down. Once they’re paying attention to the Furbo, you can shoot them a treat if you like. The Furbo can also detect if your dog is doing something unusual or dangerous, like jumping on furniture or chewing on cords. It also has a person alert. The app will notify you when the Furbo sees a person come into view.

Chances are, if you have a computer you also have a power strip. Between your desktop tower, two or three of the best monitors, and a strategically placed lamp or two, your computer corner is going to be filled with things that need plugging in. Standard two plug outlets just cannot keep up.

But, let's face it, chances are your power strip is older. That means it likely to not have as high-powered of surge protection as modern devices. Or, if it is really old it might not even have USB ports on the top, which you can get now for just a few dollars extra. Plus, really old devices tend to have their unused ports in a dangerously unusable state, filled with dust.
