Furbo’s new 360° cam has Rottie owners barking—spy or saviour while you’re gone?

Stay Connected to Your Pup—Even When You’re Miles Away

Why the Furbo 360° Dog Camera might just be your Rottie’s new favourite ‘treat machine’

Hoomans, I’ll be honest—when you leave the house, I just assume you’re off chasing magpies without me. Rude. But now there’s this thing called the Furbo 360° Dog Camera, and let me tell you, it’s like having your face in my toy box 24/7. Spooky. Amazing. Deliciously weird.

Before Furbo: alone, bored, chewing sock. After Furbo: bark alert goes off, you toss a treat, I feel seen. That’s technology done right.

This gadget isn’t just some fancy robot with a spinning head (though yes, it spins—360 degrees of judgement-free surveillance). It talks, tosses snacks, and even records your pup's ‘selfie’ moments when we step into camera view. It’s like Instagram, but sassier and furrier.

What Makes the Furbo 360 Stand Out?

Because not all dog cams can handle a Rottie’s energy and eyebrows

Most home cameras focus on hooman security. This one? Dog security—and our egos. Here’s why it's worth a sniff:

• 360° Wide-Angle Lens: We dogs don’t always sit politely in shot. This one swivels to follow our majestic pacing.
• Treat Tossing: Fill it with favourite snacks and let ‘er rip from the app. Great for fun. Better for when you’ve skipped our lunchtime lamb cubes.
• 2-Way Audio: Yes, we hear you say “Who’s a good boy?” every single time. Affirmation matters.
• Advanced Alerts: Barking, breaking, smoke, or suspicious visitors—we’ll have your back while you’re out avoiding work.
• Doggie Diary & Cloud Recording: Because who doesn’t want a slow-mo montage of me chasing my tail?

Real Talk: Is It Built Rottie-Tough?

Now I know some of you have dogs who consider ‘durable’ a personal challenge. We see your reinforced fences and raise you one chewed garden hose. But the Furbo isn’t a toy—it’s designed to sit high, observe quietly, and provide interaction without becoming chew bait. Just don’t leave it on the windowsill next to the peanut butter jar. Rookie error.

The treat toss is surprisingly strong. My ears perk up at the motor noise like it’s a snack siren. The voice feature lets me hear you while you’re at work and keeps me from turning the backyard into a dig site. Bit of reassurance goes a long way when we’re missing your socks.

Things You’ll Want to Know (Before You Wag Your Wallet)

Important: Using the camera functions on this beast requires a paid subscription. Yep, you’ll need to choose a plan during setup that unlocks the real-time camera, bark alerts, selfie saves, and more. Plans start at month-to-month commitments, and can be cancelled after a three-month minimum. I say it’s worth the paw-stamp, especially for keeping tabs on us precious potatoes.

Setup takes just a few quick tail wags—the app guides you through connecting to Wi-Fi, choosing your snack ammo, and learning which angle shows off your dog’s best side. Hint: it’s always the left. Our sneaky side.

When Does the Furbo Shine Brightest?

Or: Why I stopped howling at magpies and started waiting for snacks

• When you’re doing long shifts: Pop on your lunch break, say hi, toss a treat. We feel less alone—and your couch stays mysteriously unchewed.
• Camping or away weekends: Yep, you can check in from the bush. I was seen sunbathing. Dignified.
• Training reinforcement: Use treat-toss as positive reinforcement. Reward calm sit-stays instead of chaos zoomies.
• Peace of mind: Did I bark at the postie? Was it a possum? Furbo tells you so you don’t come home to a half-dug herb garden.

Final Verdict?

This camera’s not just a gimmick—it’s a real tool for hoomans who want to stay in tune with their dogs when they’re out peopling. And okay, maybe we like feeling like little four-legged celebrities too. Picture this: treat launch activated, tail wagging, and you, on the other end of the app, grinning like a mad thing while I gobble a snack mid-spin. Trust me, that’s a highlight reel worth saving.

Connection isn’t just about Wi-Fi—it’s about being there, even when you can’t be.

So if you're after a way to keep your pup safe, entertained, and just a bark away, the Furbo 360° Dog Camera earns a solid 5/5 tail wags and one slightly chewed power cord (my bad, still learning).

High paws and happy spying,
