Do Dogs Know What They're Watching On TV?
Many people like to put on a a movie or show for their dog to "watch," but do dogs actually know what they're seeing? According to PetMD , dogs see TV and enjoy what's on the screen but they see things differently than we do. Their vision is closer to 20/75 as opposed to 20/20, which makes seeing things clearly more difficult. Though, they have more rods which increase night vision, what they're watching is very different from what we see.
Their color perception is also different because, while we have three color-processing cells in our eyes, they only have two, greatly reducing the quality of what's being watched. Their only colors are blues, greens, and yellows, so the right show in the right colors might be really interesting to them.
The site also notes dogs have better motion perception allowing them to see flickers in the TV up to 75 hertz while humans can only perceive 55. This explains why some shows may trigger them to bark or react to a scene when we aren't able to see it.
As with sounds, they're definitely capable of hearing and reacting, and they use all senses to figure out what's going on. Just as Lavelle responded to a baby's cry, pups are in tune with your nightly show, too. Sirens, barking, babies crying—they're all things that might get your pup riled up.
Not every dog will love watching a movie like Lavelle. They all have different personalities and tastes. But if you've ever wondered if they're actually watching TV, now you know—so put on a classic and watch their response.
