Dog TV Daycare #21

TV for your dog to watch while you're away. 6 hours of dogs playing and socializing! Better than music for separation anxiety.
You should check how your dog reacts to the other dogs before leaving the video running (don't show these videos to dogs that are highly reactive).
Your views provide thousands of dollars of funding for these animal shelter dogs! If you're looking to adopt one of these dogs (located in 🌵Tucson, Arizona USA 🌵), see the link below:

I don't think my dogs really care about the show, but I'm convinced they'd be happy to help other puppies be taken care of so they get to watch it while I work and sleep

[@robertafierro5592]

Doggie Daycare is not stupid at all..in fact its a brilliant idea! The real.wunner here is the dog. I wouldnt want to put my beloved sidekick in there five days a week, maybe twice. My dog is also a watchdog, even though shes small.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Thanks! Just so everyone knows, the actual dogs in the video are not dogs from home, they're animal shelter dogs (strays, abuse/neglect/hoarding cases, dogs surrendered by their owners). They spend almost their entire time in a small kennel. Volunteers try to walk them every day, but there's so much overcrowding now that it's often every other day. Some of them get to attend these dog playgroups which is beneficial for even the frightened dogs. What I like about these videos is that everyone wins. I use the footage from these videos to create adoption videos for some of the dogs for their adoption web page and to play in the shelter lobby, so it helps them get adopted. The videos generate a *lot* of money for the shelter, so that also helps the dogs. Dogs at home get to watch these videos which helps them with separation anxiety, socialization skills, and overall enrichment.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Awesome profile pic! The dogs eventually get fostered or adopted, but it can take a long time. You can see the adoption videos I make for individual dogs, and whether they've been adopted or fostered yet. www.youtube.com/@shelterdogsforadoption6619/videos

[@LuvsHiking]

My dog watches these too! i leave them on for her all the time. I also like watching them. So many pretty dogs. :-) What is the adoption rate of these dogs if you don't mind me asking.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

@LuvsHiking Here's a copy of my reply to year other copy of the question: The adoption/foster rate is very high compared to other shelters. The actual "live release rate" number includes dogs that come in with serious medical issues (people often dump those dogs or strays are often hit by cars). I'd say most dogs get adopted within a month or two. Certain types of dogs take a lot longer: older pit bulls, dogs with a significant bite history. The volunteers do heroic work to get those dogs adopted. The longest stay dogs are typically in the shelter for about a year. When there's severe overcrowding, the shelter applies a formula for euthanizing dogs. The staff and volunteers obviously hate when that happens. Very often dog rescues will come in at the last minute and save the dogs.

[@realspike157]

I'm sorry it appears some people leave, not just ignorant but rude comments. We all love your videos! We live around a thousand miles away, but please keep it up!

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

I'm glad you love the videos! I've noticed that even a lot of the negative comments still say they like the videos.

[@realspike157]

@@DogPlaygroupStories I'm glad to hear that they still enjoy it as well. Btw, will you guys continue to have the live stream? Idk if that was just an experiment or not.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

It was kind of a preliminary experiment. It was supposed to show up very high on the search algorithm, but almost all the viewers were regulars, not people searching. The quality was low, but supposedly it should allow people to stay connected for as many hours as they want, without getting kicked off.

[@IsmailHoque-ke5dv]

​@@realspike157,k❤🤤

[@realspike157]

@DogPlaygroupStories I know that it can be frustrating dealing with KZbin's search algorithm. I can verify from watching many doggie type KZbin videos, both live and not, that the quality is lower, but it does keep a constant connection. The highest quality I've seen with live is 1080p. It is nice not having to worry about the video stopping. So, positives and negatives.

[@JonBoy52882]

I HAD to stop cleaning my house to give some feedback on this video. PLEASE for the love of GOD everybody stop yelling OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT. I might have had a slight mental break listening to this for hours. My puppy Harley loves watching your videos while I’m busy but I swear on my life I counted about 145 OUT’s before I said ENOUGH!! Hahaha smh

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

I'm starting to remove the repeated "out"s, but it'll be in the video published on January 15 and only some of the "out"s. We're supposed to say that over and over according to the top experts in shelter dog playgroups, but the problem is that our shelter has gotten a bit sloppy about enforcing "out" so we end up having to say it way too many times. As soon as dogs see that one or more dogs get away with not obeying, then it's like an avalanche of dogs at the gate. I'm just a volunteer so I can't do anything about it.

[@Umbrella_Cloud]

Doggos, family & I love watching you all all the time but I must say this particular video was action-packed throughout with such spot on groupings of dogs.....like for real!! I absolutely loved every minute of it!! #PickerOnPoint #LoveAllThatYouDoHere #KeepOnKeepinOn #Bravo

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Wow, thanks! I'm very glad the whole house liked it! I believe that I'm getting better at getting the right dogs in the frame at the right time. I think you'll like #23 as well.

[@Umbrella_Cloud]

I will definitely keep that in mind and I am positive we won't miss it! I'm quite sure we have seen them all and if we haven't we are working on it for sure! Your camera work has always been very good in my opinion and all these vids do inspire me quite a bit to want to do this locally myself. #LoveAllThatYouDoHere #PickerOnPoint #KeepOnKeepinOn ❤️

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

@@Umbrella_Cloud I actually meant Dog TV Daycare #25. That's the one I might do a premiere on. For learning how to do camera work and edit, I'd recommend the KZbin channels: "This Guy Edits" and "Every Frame a Painting" (start with Every Frame a Painting, and start with the video about Akira Kurosawa). I use techniques from these and other sources in my videos. One of the more interesting techniques comes from the book In the Blink of an Eye (which This Guy Edits covers well, including the Rule of 6) it says that good actors tend to blink when a particular section of their acting is done. So editors look for where the actor blinks to find good places to put a cut. I tried this with dogs and it works very well when I can't find a good cut point.

[@Aurora81689]

Guardians of Play hard 3 was a classic 😂 I’m sick in bed and needing something to help my dog plus it’s relaxing for me

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Hehe! I aways assume some human is watching, maybe someone sick or just stuck. I assume that I'm making the video for both dogs and people.

[@MarjanKarsin]

@@DogPlaygroupStories oh yes, definitely for both dogs and people. Love watching them play, run and wrestle. :)

[@crowesnestcafe]

I... No, WE as Dog Dad's who just lost one of our cherished fur babies, and have another woof with separation anxiety... These videos help a lot when we're unable to come home and check in on him. deSade, our 13 year old, really watches and interacts, so he's not alone. We cannot thank you enough for giving our old guy company during the day here in Michigan. Much ❤ to you guys for this and the work you do.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Sorry you lost your fur baby. Glad your 13 year old and separation anxiety sufferer enjoy these videos! Stories like this will help me make a case to dog experts about the benefits of these videos.

[@brianpoling1430]

My dogs absolutely love this. If I put it on they'll lay hours and watch it. My wife asks ,”what happened to the dog named Turtle?”She watches with them lol. Apparently Turtle was a mischievous dog that was mentioned a lot in the videos, and has become our dogs name for the show. Our Bulldog whines non stop until we put on Turtle.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

Turtle was adopted and then returned several times from 2021 to 2023. In early June 2023, this text was made public: "Turtle was adopted in April of 2023 and was returned June 3, 2023. His adopter said that Turtle did great with the other pets in the home until recently when he was left unsupervised with toy, he and the other dog in the home got into an altercation that resulted in both dogs being injured. Turtle will need to be crated whenever he is not supervised so that he doesn’t find himself in trouble. Turtle is a volunteer and staff favorite! Turtle is looking for placement with a rescue. If you think your home could be a good fit for Turtle, PLEASE come to PACC before 06/11/23 and ask to meet Turtle! Turtle will need to leave the shelter by 06/11/23." I don't know the details of which rescue, but he was transferred to a rescue on June 12, 2023. They'll gladly extend a deadline if someone is going to pick them up soon.

[@brianpoling1430]

@@DogPlaygroupStories we just love him on the show. Our dogs do too. As much as I’d love for him to come here,right now we have a small house (2br,1bath) 2 adult Bullies,and two adult humans, so it’s crowded. Again,love what you do

How about a little dog day. All the dogs are big huge ones. You have to also have a bunch of smaller dogs?

I would absolutely love to be in this line of work! The only con I could forsee is that I'd probably want to adopt too many of them. ❤

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

@@Umbrella_Cloud Yeah, I hear all the time from staff and volunteers about how they already have too many dogs.

[@Christa-tl8jb]

Have you ever considered harnesses over collars? It would be better for them and probably easier for you if you had to grab a leash and pull them away from one another if there were an altercation. That way their throat and neck aren’t compromised.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

We use martingale collars to protect their throats. We do use harnesses on dogs that would benefit from them when being walked, but still use martingales and drag lines in the play yard. It's all based on experience with many thousands of shelter dogs.

[@Christa-tl8jb]

@@DogPlaygroupStories oh ok I’ve never heard of such a collar. I just watched a video on how it works and now I understand how it works. Thanks for sharing

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

@@Christa-tl8jb Sure! I had never heard of martingales either, until I started volunteering at the shelter.

[@markcknudsen]

You guys have 3-4 adults in there. Have a hose with a good pressure nozzle that will separate them instantly if one acts up. I don’t understand why they are in a dirty dusty playpen and why their leashes are connected to them they step on them, they get caught between their toes, they wrap around their ankles, they pee on them,it doesn’t make any sense. Just hang the leashes on the fence and put a name tag on them. It’s so dusty there ,I’d never let my dogs go there.

[@DogPlaygroupStories]

We handle thousands of dogs, actually thousands of dogs per year. Many of them come from abuse/hoarding/neglect cases. We get a lot of strays where we know nothing about their history. At times we've needed as many as 10 people rushing into the yard, each grabbing a leash, to deal with a situation. Yes, we also use the hose, air horn, bite sticks, etc. The shelter has a lot of experience in doing what we're doing and the handlers I've talked to generally laugh when I tell them about the comments I get here about how we shouldn't have drag lines on the dogs.
