There are many technologies that assists blind dogs, but they all aren’t the best possible solutions for helping your special pet. There are limited options for assisting blind pets. That’s why our group decided on creating an invention that enhances the quality of life for pets with disabilities.
Starting off, we will introduce the present technology. The technology consists of a Blind Dog Hoop Harness. This device is a large plastic hoop that attaches to the harness of a blind dog. This device takes the place of a walking stick for a human being. There are some complications with the hoop, such as breaking something within the house, and the hoop breaking itself when the owner is not present. It could be very uncomfortable …show more content…
Our first invention idea was on the same track on assisting blind dogs. We wanted to make toys and balls for blind dogs, so the owners could still play with their special animal. Our idea was to make toys for dogs that would make noises so the blind pet could locate the toy and play with their owner. The reason why we did not go with this idea was because it was already an invention. We also agreed that we needed to do something more useful to assist the owner and the blind pet. We think our collar is better than our idea for toys for the blind because the collar helps the dog with getting around, and it makes it easier for the owner to take care of their animal. Our invention that we are going with will have a bigger impact and is more useful than toys for blind animals. The collar serves a bigger purpose and would help the pet in many more ways than the blind dog toys. Our second idea was to make a collar for both deaf and blind dogs. That would've been incredibly hard to try to imagine and create a collar that would accommodate the dog and it's very special needs. We were planning on making a collar with different specific vibrations and notifications that would alert the dog if it were coming into harm's way. The only concern with this is training. The dog would have to learn the specific vibrations and what they mean. I feel as if the training would take at least a month or two to give the dog the slightest idea of what exactly those vibrations mean. There could also be possible training with a certified dog trainer that could help, but it could be very expensive and time consuming. Though we'd love to assist all dogs and their disabilities, it would be incredibly hard to alleviate the dogs and their needs. That's why my group ended up choosing the collar that assists blind dogs. I believe that our invention of the collar with the sensor

The Importance Of Sense

some are likely to disagree. Vision, for example, is usually top of the list of senses for most people. However, it is very easy to live a practically normal life without vision, as millions of blind people prove every day. There is also aid for those who cannot see their surroundings, like service dogs. Others may bring up hearing as the most important sense. But because of sign language, there is not a need for every person to speak. Although deaf people cannot hear…
