Furbo just launched a 360° treat-cam—can it survive life with your giant shadow of floof?

A Rottweiler’s Take on the Furbo 360° Dog Camera

360° views, treat-toss tech, and bark alerts—can it really handle a dog this majestic?

Let’s set the scene: You’re leaving the house and I—Thor, your loyal, handsome Rottweiler—give you that face. You know the one. The "don’t leave me with just the couch and my squeaky duck" face. You wave goodbye, but I know you’re thinking about me the whole drive to work. That’s where the Furbo 360° Dog Camera waltzes in like a high-tech treat fairy.

I gave this fancy spinny camera a proper sniff test, barked at it, licked it, and yes—wait for it—it tossed me snacks. Hoomans, it tossed snacks while filming my good side.

But does it actually work for big dogs like me?

Short answer? Yes. Longer, droolier answer? It depends on what you need it for—and how patient you are with app setups that make boomers growl. The device offers a full 360° view. That means I can’t sneak behind the couch to eat your slipper in peace anymore. Rude. With features like Barking Alerts, real-time notifications, and treat-tossing, it’s like giving your dog their own personal life coach who also works reception.

What Makes the Furbo Different?

This isn’t just another pet cam stuck watching one angle of the living room rug. Here’s the lowdown on what Furbo nails:

• Full-Room View: The 360° rotating lens moves to track me as I dramatically prance from my bed to the entryway (aka patrol duty).
• Auto Photo Bomb: Selfie Alerts snap gorgeous candid shots of me when I stand in front of it—yes, I am looking directly at you, Furbo fans.
• Bark Alerts: If I hear a noise and announce it with my noble Rottweiler voice, your phone gets alerted. Note: this won’t stop you from overreacting when I bark at the mail delivery hooman.
• Treat Toss: It launches my favourite biscuits into the air like magical rain. You can schedule these tosses or do them mid-meeting (please do).
• Emergency Detection: It never misses a sound—glass breaking, smoke detectors, or the fridge being opened without me noticing.

Important tail-wag info: To use these features, you'll need a paid monthly or yearly subscription. It’s like Netflix, but the show is… me. 10/10 casting choice.

Real-Life Snapshot: One Day With Furbo

My hooman was late from a brunch date (how dare), and I was pacing the hallway waiting for snacks and belly rubs. Out of thin air, Furbo moved, beeped, and flung a liver biscuit right into my majestic jowls. Seconds later, her voice came through the speaker: “Good boy, Thor!”

I flopped onto my bed, righteous and fed. She watched from her phone and told everyone at brunch what a good boy I was. (Accurate.)

What Hoomans Love

“It helps my Rottie with separation anxiety. And I get adorable pics while I’m at work!” – One happy snack-tosser

• Peace of mind when you're out and about
• Treat-based interaction that supports training and calm behaviour
• Sweet daily selfies of your furry sidekick… even while you’re at the shops

Things To Sniff Twice At

• You’ll need to pick and subscribe to one of Furbo’s paid plans to unlock core features (like video history and alerts)
• Set-up requires some fussing in the app followed by multiple treat bribes. But hey, you do that for the air fryer too, don’t you?
• The camera should be placed high up—otherwise, us large dogs might mistake it for a chew toy.

So... Is It Worth It for Rottweiler Owners?

Let’s be honest. We’re not exactly handbag dogs. We take up space, have loud thoughts, and come with 40kg of glorious opinions. But the Furbo 360° Camera handled my energy, my fluff, and my suspicious side-eye with grace.

If you’re the kind of hooman who worries if your dog is okay, wonders if they’re missing you, or just wants to throw treats when you’re not home (you sadist), it delivers. Especially when the camera catches me mid-zoomie or lounging like royalty on the forbidden lounge cushions.

Let’s Make This Simple:

• Got a big soul-dog who sulks when you leave? ✔️
• Want bark alerts, wide angles and live snacking fun? ✔️
• Willing to pay attention during app setup and keep connecting to Wi-Fi without rage-quitting? ✔️

Final verdict from your favourite Rottie journalist? 5/5 paws. I feel seen. I feel fed. I feel like I’m starring in my own reality show called "Keeping Up With the Kibble."

Worth it—for your peace of mind, and my snack schedule.

Until next time, keep your tails wagging and your snacks flying,
Thor 🐾
