In this period of confinement for millions of people around the world, dog owners are forced to take them out regularly. A Cypriot has shown that it is possible to do this without leaving your home.
Although many people are forced to stay at home, those who have pets are forced to take them out regularly. A resident of Cyprus seems to have found an original way to allow his dog to stretch his legs outside, while he stays at home.
As this video published on Wednesday March 18 shows, a drone flying a few feet from the ground keeps the dog on a leash. The canine does not seem disturbed by this new “artificial master”, which allows the owner to respect the confinement measures imposed on this island where a hundred cases of coronavirus have been identified.
Here’s the problem
Besides the fact that his daughter, according to the New York Post, went out to film the scene, walking her dog with a drone is more of a quick fix than a real solution. In fact, as several Internet users have pointed out, this machine cannot pick up the faeces left by the animal.
In addition, drones sold in shops can only be piloted at a very limited distance, and must in this case remain within sight. It therefore seems unlikely that this tip is really viable for the majority of dog owners.
