Let’s face it – dogs are terrible at keeping track of time. While it’s true that dogs staunchly believe in being fashionably late, typically the issue is simply that dogs don’t have access to clocks while out and about.
Unfortunately, having access to human clocks is not enough. As we all know, dogs live in “dog years,” which means that dogs cannot fathom human-time, plus their poor math skills makes it impossible for them to convert to dog-time. In other words, human clocks are completely worthless to dogs.
Luckily there is a solution to this age-old conundrum. As described in U.S. Patent 5,023,850, wrist watches can be made for dogs that automatically keep time in dog years. Sheer genius!
As shown in Fig. 1 of the patent, (reproduced on the left), dogs love to chill out and check the watch that is wrapped around their dog-arm.
FIG. 1 shows a watch according the present invention in the form of a wristwatch worn by a typical dog.
