Barking dog: problem solved!

A Twitter Follower from New York asked me to write an article about his ingenious method of solving his barking dog problem. I must admit, the scheme that was confided in me left me nearly speechless.

You buy a small drone, and a miniature GPS kit that attaches to the drone. Then you take your Garmin to the neighbor’s house and use it to get the GPS coordinates of the dog house, or wherever the canine routinely hangs out.

You equip your drone with a radio-controlled relay that operates a tiny alligator clip.

Embed a mild sleeping pill in about half an inch of wiener, and grip one end of that appetizer with the alligator clip.

Launch your GPS-&-wiener-equipped drone, and in no time it will be hovering 20' above the dog’s head.

Typically, the curious mutt will be looking up and staring at it in awe. That’s good, ‘cause then she won’t miss what happens next.

Push the button on your remote control and the jaws of the alligator clip open, dropping the irresistible morsel within the dog’s “sniffing range.”

Bring your drone back, and go enjoy a good night’s sleep. The hapless pooch will soon be joining you in slumberland.

(You can’t make this stuff up!)

Warning: I’m not sharing specifics of this canine caper because any kind of human meds can be fatal to the dog.
