All my life, my family had always owned a variety of dogs in our home. I was used to having at least one as I grew up.
I decided to live apart from my parents when I got me a job. I brought along my German shepherd to watch the house while I am off to work.
I believed guard dogs were not only for protection but also as friends and companions, as compared to employing only hi-tech family protection devices.
Returning home one day, I saw drops of blood as I opened the gate. I rushed inside to check on Spike. I saw him sprawled on the floor bloodied with a big cut between his two front legs. I immediately alerted the police and brought Spike to a veterinarian. Luckily, nothing was lost to the incident because of Spike. If not for my timely arrival, I could have lost him instead.
Since Spike would not be very active as a guard dog for a while, my father confirmed the police recommendation to have a hi-tech family protection installed in my place. This was when I found out about Telespy.
Telespy looks like an ordinary telephone that actually functions as an effective monitoring device. It serves as a telephone, motion sensor, and microphone. When motion is detected, pre-set numbers are immediately connected to the base where the amplified sound would tell if the motion is caused by trespassers or authorized persons. When an alarm is triggered, it would be easy for me to call the police if there is an intruder in the house.
The presence of the TeleSpy provides me with hi-tech family protection. It will be an added means of security in the home aside from Spike's presence.
I considered my dog a hero for guarding my home the way he did. With this hi-tech family protection in place, I am confident that I would have Spike as a reliable companion for many years to come.
