I

By Michael S. Rosenwald

The Washington Post

n the prehistoric days before high-speed Wi-Fi and smart home devices, dog owners had to open the front door to discover whether their canine companions had spent the day lounging on the couch or eating it.

Now, thanks to robotic cameras designed specifically for humans to remotely surveil and communicate with dogs, they no longer have to wonder.

Every sniff, nap or destructive moment can be watched live on a mobile device.

Dog parents can even remotely launch treats.

“It’s definitely entertaining,” said Cristin Bratt, a Fairfax County (Virginia) Park Authority official who watches Jackson, her Boston terrier, on an iPad at her desk. “It was a new concept for our family to have another living creature in our home, so installing a camera gave us peace of mind.”

Bratt, whose family owns several smart speakers, surveils Jackson with a Furbo Dog Camera, a cylinder device slightly larger than

an Amazon Echo that has a one-way camera, a two-way speaker and a launching mechanism that tosses bitesize treats several feet.

PetChatz, one of several competing products, has a two-way camera that allows dogs and dog parents to see each other. In addition to treats, it dispenses aromatherapy. And the devices, which cost between $180 and $450, generate big bucks for their manufacturers.

Consumers spent almost $50 million on dog cameras in 2018, according to Grand View Research. Amazon, whose CEO and founder Jeff

Bezos owns The Washington Post, said Furbo was one of its top-selling smart home devices this past Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend.

The cameras are just the latest form of human technology to cross over into the pet world. In the past decade, pet owners have outfitted their animals with activity trackers, swabbed their gums for DNA, and bought plenty of I-this, I-that products, such as the

iFetch ball launcher.

What’s driving dog camera sales? For one thing, it’s anxiety — for dogs and humans.

Up to 17% of dogs experience separation anxiety, and it’s not pretty.

“Escape attempts by dogs with separation anxiety are often extreme and can result in self-injury and household destruction, especially around exit points like windows SEE WI-FI, PAGE F3

Andrea replied. “They were very anxious being here because they had only lived at the townhouse.”

Amino would pace. Every noise scared him.

“With the PetChatz, we could check in on them, see if they were OK,” Andrea said.

Alex’s opinion: “I honestly think a lot of it is that they realize they aren’t being ignored.”

Not only are Lola and Amino not being ignored, but they and other dogs under surveillance are becoming stars on social media, with dog-camera owners posting funny videos of their animals climbing on kitchen tables, rearranging pillows, running in circles, jumping out of playpens and chasing their tails (sometimes for hours).

And because dog parents can set their devices to notify them when their dog barks, Andrew Bleiman, Furbo’s

general manager, said his company’s device had alerted parents to fires and burglaries.

“If you have a dog that doesn’t bark a lot and you’re getting a bunch of alerts about barks, you might want to check that out,” Bleiman said.

“It’s almost like a tech advancement for a dog’s original purpose.”

PetChatz has introduced interactive games that dogs can play with their owners simply by the dog pressing a paw-shaped button attached to the camera. Lavin said dogs motivated by food are highly motivated players.

The companies are also working to integrate the cameras with other smart home devices, so that, for instance, if the dog jingles a bell a smart door could open so they can let themselves out.

“And then we’d would record the whole thing,” Bleiman said.

That’s the primary reason Bratt uses a Furbo. Jackson is cute, but when his parents and human siblings go AWOL for too long, things can go south real fast. He once ate a down jacket hanging on a chair, turning the kitchen into a winter wonderland. He has been known to find boxes of treats and consume them all.

Rhine wine glass proves to be a vintage collector’s item

OST OF US HAVE a few differently shaped glasses, some to use every day and others for parties.

You need a water glass and wine glasses, one for white wine and another for red. Before dinner you need cocktail glasses and rocks glasses for whiskey “on the rocks (ice cubes).”

It is possible to collect vintage glassware in more than a dozen shapes. Cordial glasses are popular because they are small and made by many firms in many colors, often with cut, engraved or painted decorations.

A Rhine wine glass was offered at Woody Auctions last year. It is a rarely used shape with a cupped bowl, a tall stem and a flat round foot.

The auction had an example made by Val St. Lambert, a Belgian glass firm that started in 1825 and is still working. The auctioned example was made of blue glass cut to Vaseline glass with a clear stem. It sold for $450.

The company copied many U.S. glass patterns, including some used by Fry, Libbey, Sandwich, Dorflinger, Bergen and more. It also made vases, punch bowls, biscuit jars, compotes, candlesticks, coasters and other table items.

Val St. Lambert can be hard to identify. When new, there is a paper label or the company name in a circle or an oval with clipped ends. It also may say “depose,” the French word that refers to a design patent.

CURRENT PRICES Current prices are recorded from antiques shows, flea markets, sales and auctions throughout the United States.

Prices vary in different locations because of local economic conditions.

Shawnee planter, flares open, wavy mouth, yellow, 9 1/2 inches, $20.

Hutschenreuther figurine, woman fixing her hair, seated, formal yellow dress, flowers, 10 inches, $90.

Weather vane, locomotive, wooden, steam engine, 1 car, old white paint, 40 x 16 inches, $340.

Ice bucket, silver, scrollwork at mouth and base, slight taper, loop handles, Mexico, 8 inches, $420.

Bronze sculpture, “Reflection 1,” seated nude male, knees bent, arm resting on upright knee, Carol Miller, 19 x 20 inches, $780.

Folding screen, 6 panels, carved relief, gilt highlights, applied hardstone vases and flowers, 75 x 88 inches, $910.

Pie safe, cherry, 2 doors, 4 punch tin panels, interior shelves, dovetailed drawers, shaped skirt, 65 x 58 inches, $1,060.

Meissen clock, winter, spring, fall, allegorical figures, flowers, tripod base, porcelain, 16 1/2 inches, $1,430.

Icon, St. Nil Stoblensky, seated figure, halo, gilt, 3-dimensional carved shadow box, flowers, 13 x 12 inches, $1,560.

Lee Reich | In The Garden

Plant a vegetable garden: You’ll be thankful you did

IS THE SEASON when everyone gets the urge to plant, the season that makes first-time gardeners.

Go ahead: Put in a vegetable garden this year. You’ll be thankful when you take your first bites of tender spring lettuce, when summer’s tomatoes ooze more juice than you can keep in your mouth, and when you sit down to a steaming dish of brussels sprouts sweetened by a touch of autumn frost.

OK, brussels sprouts aren’t everyone’s favorite vegetable.

But autumn does also bring delicious winter squashes, broccoli, spinach and lettuce.

No need to relegate this planned vegetable garden to the far rear corner of your yard, either. In that rear corner, the garden is sure to suffer neglect. You’ll think twice about stepping out the back door for another sprig of basil or for a few minutes of weeding.

As the old saw goes, “Put your vegetable garden no further from your back door than you could throw the kitchen sink.”

Or maybe even your front door.

And that old saw is old enough to date back to when kitchen sinks were cast iron.

What I’m getting at is that a vegetable garden need not be an eyesore, something you put as much out of sight as possible.

No, a vegetable garden can be an oasis of beauty, pleasing your eyes as much as your palate.

Just visit or find some picture of Villandry, the famous French potager near Tours, with its patterns of geometric-shaped beds filled with growing vegetables. Some beds are lined with low boxwood hedges (19 miles of them) and the whole garden is interlaced with white gravel paths.

Call your vegetable plot a potager, instead of a vegetable garden or patch, and right away you’ll find it more charming.

disappear when the temperature plummets. They carry the overall design of the garden through the winter.

So create beds in your potager, perhaps geometric in shape, perhaps flowing. In either case they should be beds whose shapes create year-round patterns of beauty. Define your garden with hedging, arbors, fencing and paving.

Curio table displays clever design

E

VERY COLLECTOR knows that the one thing you can never have too much of is display space. This handsome, do-it-yourself curio coffee table provides a clever “two-forone” approach to the issue.

Essentially two big drawers under a heavy glass top, the project is designed to protect and display prized collectibles while serving as a handsome coffee table at the same time.

The drawers are identical, and both provide about four square feet of space that can

be flocked or lined to protect the contents. A simple switch of the drawers instantly changes what’s under the glass.

The curio table is built from two sheets of oak plywood (as pictured; other species can be used), a small quantity of matching lumber and a piece of tempered glass for the top.

All straight cuts and simple construction techniques make the project easy enough even for beginners.
