My Buddy drooled on my laptop! I practically shrieked when I saw the drool and quickly wiped it off the keyboard.
Good thing nothing bad happened to my laptop.
Well, dogs will be dogs.

Uhm, I don't think so...
Dogs don't care much about gadgets, unless you use it to play fetch or bury it. |

Oh no! I don't think dogs and gadgets go together.  Dogs won't care a bit about your equipment. I'm careful when it comes to my gadgets, I keep my Mac away from my Lab every time. |

I agree, Jennifer. Dogs and gadgets just don't mix. They might "hurt" each other.
On another note: does there exist a gadget made specifically for dogs?  |

| I don't think that's gonna happen anytime soon, Doug. That would be cool though. Imagine our pets having their own PDAs and mobile phones. That would be a blast! We could call our pets whenever they go out and tell them it's dinnertime. They would have to learn to talk though, or we can learn their language. Imagine that... |

| Well, the Aibo was made to specifically replace our dogs. But robot dogs aren't just not that sophisticated enough. Nothing still beats the real thing. |

You got it right there, Joey! No Aibo can ever comfort me during times when I'm really feeling down. Only the warm hug and kiss of a dog will do.  |

well, it's not a gadget per se but it's technology for dogs. there's a collar with GPS-enabled tracking system.  |

Exactly. Aibos won't be able to replace our furry, adorable friends! |

Wow, this is a great accessory for dogs. If every dog had it, no dog will ever be lost again! |

| Honey, don't ever let your dog get near any of your high-tech gadgets. They just don't go together! |
