It was the fear over having his own dog stolen that prompted Phoenix, Arizona resident and inventor Jim Allen to create a device to secure dogs when out doing errands, traveling or just having fun outdoors. And so the StayBoy Lock project was born and launched on Kickstarter, where it’s currently seeking funding. <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/stayboy-lock-helps-dogs-stay-secure/28551/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </article> <article class="article-summary article-summary--None" data-article="27817"> <div class="article-top" data-article="27817"> <a class="label" href="/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/pets/"> — Pets </a> <h1 class="h2"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/tagg-and-whistle-pet-products/27817/">Smart collars help keep an eye on your dog's health and location</a></h1> <div class="clearfix"> <span class="pull-left"> By <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/author/colin-dunjohn/" rel="author">Colin Dunjohn</a> - July 29, 2013 </span> <a class="picture-count" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/tagg-and-whistle-pet-products/27817/pictures"> 17 Pictures </a> </div> </div> <div class="inline-item"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/tagg-and-whistle-pet-products/27817/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/whistle-and-tagg-pet-tech@2x.jpg" alt="Modern tech can help keep pets safe and healthy"> </a> </div> Human beings aren’t the only ones donning ever-more powerful wearable electronic devices.

Are they a little sluggish and out of it when you hang out, preferring a nap over a run or walk? Don't make things awkward by telling them, just slide on a collar while they're sleeping and encourage them to get more exercise. We're talking about your dog, of course, and the new FitBark collar. <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/fitbark-activity-tracking-dogs/28102/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </article> <article class="article-summary article-summary--None" data-article="28022"> <div class="article-top" data-article="28022"> <a class="label" href="/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/pets/"> — Pets </a> <h1 class="h2"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/ifetch-automatic-fetch-dog/28022/">iFetch allows a dog to play fetch on its own</a></h1> <div class="clearfix"> <span class="pull-left"> By <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/author/dave-leclair/" rel="author">Dave LeClair</a> - June 21, 2013 </span> <a class="picture-count" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/ifetch-automatic-fetch-dog/28022/pictures"> 4 Pictures </a> </div> </div> <div class="inline-item"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404/http://www.gizmag.com/ifetch-automatic-fetch-dog/28022/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150905103404im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/ifetch@2x.jpg" alt="A dog playing with the iFetch device"> </a> </div> Playing fetch with your dog is surely one of life's high points. After a short while though, it can all get a bit tiring and just a tad boring. Your bouncing bundle of fun, on the other hand, would happily keep the game going for hours.
