If so does your dog watch it?

Somebody told me that dogs can't watch TV because they have a high flicker fusion and don't see continuous motion pictures at 50/60hz i.e. most TVs.

The thinking is that modern sets that refresh at 100hz or better should be visible to canines.
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

Aye. If it's too wet to take the dog out, I could put her in front of a vid of Homeward Bound instead :lol:
