DOGTV Reviews

by Vinnie0324

When I first got DOGTV it was great, then it either froze or it was dead air so many times I tried to use. I decided to go thru iTunes support & they canceled the subscription for me and the next week I was charged again. I called iTunes & asked why I’m being charged again, they’re showing it was cancelled, I’m showing it’s cancelled on my end and somewhere this app must show it cancelled because I don’t have access to it anymore. BUT, they are charging me the second time in a week!!! this app is a great concept, but they’re not willing to own up to “mistakes”. Buyers beware! You may never get out of theses charges!!!

so i read the reviews (well 2 of them) and it said that it cost. So i thought maybe just some of the episodes cost when i opened DOGTV it said “start free trial”. i am sure it’s great shows that will keep my dog entertained and happy, however it cost monthly and my dog has plenty of toys. She can be entertained without me paying monthly. For that matter a bone will keep them entertained every dog loves that but not every dog is going to love the channels. I don’t like all the channels on tv so why would my little puppy i mean she’s not picky she will eat anything you give her (especially pumpkin seeds) she will chase anything moving. However i have not seen her pay attractive to the tv once, she ether falls asleep or plays with her toys (while not watching tv) so there is no point to pay monthly for your dogs entertainment when you can pay once.🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
bye bye

Don’t even bother buying it because it either times out crashes or you have to pay for it so let’s start with the time outs please disable the timer I would be working from home and turn dog TV on but after 2-3 hours it turns off and my dog starts whining and I have to stop my zoom to turn it back on next is the crashing I also have it on my phone and iPad when we go on road trips DOGTV crashes CONSTANTLY and it is so annoying please fix this and lastly is YOU FREAKING HAVE TO PAY FOR DOGTV to watch live tv which my dog LOVES you have to pay and that’s just really annoying because I just want to play live tv because it’s my dog favorite but I CANT DO THAT WITHOUT PAYING and some kids might want to use DOGTV but they have to pay and that’s just inconvenient over all I think paying is the worst problem please make it 100% free if you change these problems thank you so much bless your soul

Hey so I will not use DOGTV again because this should be free this is for our dogs you know how many dogs are suffering out there right now soap water dogs dogs are amazing but you know how many can suffer with out dog TV so I really think it should be free no subscription no in app purchases I think there should be like an in app purchase for one thing no ads because a person and a dog can live with ads some people that got this we’re really excited but then they realize there was a subscription like I did and turns out they don’t have any money because they used it to buy other things like dog food bands money food for themselves dog toys other things that are more important than an app for the dogs I’m not saying this is a bad app it needs to be free so When it is free I will use it

Last year I bought a year subscription from their Black Friday special through the this app site. Here is their scam. After ordering I immediately canceled to not get further charges. That prevented me from watching even though the year was already paid for. Contacted support who re-activated my account and also re-activated auto renewal against my explicit email message. Fast forward a year to find a $80 charge from Vinmo pending. I immediately cancel my subscription and contact support to refund my money. Day goes by, send another message. Next day a email direct to their support. Nothing. I had to call my credit card company to dispute this charge. Tv for dogs is a cute idea, but stay away from this group.

I have never heard of DOGTV before until T-Mobile offered a free 3 month subscription. The instructions were to download it and choose the free 3 month trial. I downloaded it but there was only an option for a free week trial. So I set up the free week trial up yesterday and contacted them in regards about the free trial that was being offered by T-Mobile for more info. Haven’t heard from them on that yet. Then I cancelled the subscription so I wouldn’t forget and get charged. Then this morning I got an email receipt stating I got charged for the first month! Checked my bank account and sure enough, they already had charged me! Had to send another email for a refund but I’m sure they aren’t going to respond to that either.

I honestly don’t want to give 1 star bc I can’t say anything about the product itself as I only got so far as entering payment information and then suddenly my session expired. After trying (unsuccessfully) to log back in MULTIPLE TIMES, I decided to double check my account just to make sure no money was taken out.... the session may have expired but not before they ran a hold and credit on the account. 😡 Now I can’t even log on to cancel and putting a stop pay on it will cost me much more than this was ever supposed to. This means, I’m paying for a service I cannot access nor use no matter what bc after the trial period runs out they’ll charge me if I don’t stop pay.
What a terrible first impression to make!

My dogs love it when we’re able to put it on, which unfortunately is not often because the live stream is either not available or drops after a short amount of time. I’ve contacted their support but, other than suggesting logging out and back in-which doesn’t do anything, they’ve been quite.
I want to give it more stars but the almost constant streaming issues are too great of an issue for me.

I subscribed to this app to help my pup sleep in the living room at night or occupy him while i work from home. I use their app on Roku and it has helped tremendously with getting him. He loves it. The problem however is it appears the this app app on Roku has times out after a couple of hours, causing my pup to whine in the middle of the night. I don’t know if it’s done on purpose or if there’s a glitch with Roku or the this app app, but for now I’ll assume the latter because I know many apps time-out after no activity. This is a problem for me. this app is supposed to calm or keep pets occupied when we’re away or sleeping, why would you make an automatic timer, and one so sort? I think the timer, if there is one, needs to be disabled. Otherwise i will most likely cancel the subscription when it’s time to start working in the office again. Don’t see the logic of buying a service if it times out 2-3 hours after I leave home. If Roku’s the reason DOGTV is closing I will revise my review to 5 stars.

Love the program. Unfriendly app. Unhappy with the hoops. Shame on Apple. I received a gift card for a temporary subscription and because my subscription on wasn’t AppleTV, because it didn’t come through iTunes.m, multiple steps to sign in. What can I say????

by Populismyeahyeah17

I have to beagles that get bored when I put this on because there are no programs just for them. also, I hate subscribing because it takes away money for something that I got and do not use often. I deleted DOGTV because it was so boring for my dogs. You could make it better by stopping subscribtions and making programs for each group of dog like hounds. Thx bye!

I usually don’t write reviews but this has been a lifesaver for my pup while working from home. I can’t always take him to the park every day or have errands to run, so this definitely keeps him occupied and stimulated. Pro-tip: Depending how energetic your pup is, it might be a good idea to place your TV reasonably high or some sort of blocker in front of it. Other than that, no complaints. :)

We really wanted to believe this was a gimmick but we cannot deny that it helps our Daisy! Our 11 year old dog has suffered from separation anxiety since we got her at 3 months old. Shoes, pillows, remotes, basically anything we left out would be chewed up when we got home. We had learned not to leave anything out we didn’t want destroyed. Recently she started drinking water excessively while we were gone which led to her being unable to control her bladder. We almost hated to leave home in the evenings because of the mess we would come home to. After using this app for a few months we can say without a doubt it has soothed her separation anxiety. She has only had one accident since we started leaving the this app on for her. She doesn’t really “watch” but the sounds are soothing to her. If we had any question at all, on NYE the sound of fireworks got her pretty upset and within 2 minutes of turning on the this app she settled down. If your dog has separation anxiety related issues we highly recommend this app!

I really thought this was crap and a scam to get money, How dish TV had a trial for this and so we decided to try it. My mom can't stop watching it. Also when we are away from my apartment, my dog always barks and howls. Since I have used this, he will door on the couch or on his bed and fall asleep or just watch the TV (I have a camera in my apartment to keep an eye on him). I wish I would have known about this a while ago!

My puppy struggled with separation anxiety terribly until having stumbled upon DOGTV. Surprisingly, there’s really not a lot of apps for dogs at all in the 21st century. SO, figured I’d give this a go. After just a few days of leaving this on when I leave for work, my pup has very little, if NO separation anxiety at all anymore. Maybe it’s just my dog and I got lucky? I don’t think so. My friends started using it too and have seen wonderful benefits. Whenever I sneak a few peeks in on my home security cameras, I catch him watching it as well! He relaxes, sometimes prances, and better yet, he plays around with his toys way more than he did before I got DOGTV . He will nap for a couple hours all while this is on. I feel so much better leaving him home now when i go to work or run some errands. AND, no more whimpering!!!! I was so worried about this living in an apartment complex. Behavior outside DOGTV has even improved. He’s getting used to the sounds that are played on the programming and walks have even gotten better. I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want this for their dog. I wish this had been around sooner. Thanks so much to everyone at this app!!

This has been the best thing for my miniature schnauzer my wife passed two months ago and princess was grieving very badly along with myself. When we were introduced to dog TV it worked immediately and it was very therapeutic for myself also we both love this this is just great. Don’t do away with this channel please I just can’t say enough
Thank you very much

I’ve had this app in the past but my dog at the time didn’t really get into it. I adopted a puppy a few months ago and she is the complete opposite. The first time I put this app on she was sucked in like my mom gets when she’s binge watching. She loves watching one of the specials when going to bed and sometimes demands it (if she barks at 9pm she wants the video on 😂).

Sometimes she gets up to stare at the TV when it's on and once she started crying when she saw balls rolling around because she wanted to play.

A big thank you to Lindsay in customer service who sent me the best instructions on how to fix my issue. The solution worked on my first try and my dogs are happy campers again.
If you have Dog TV through Roku, you need to go on a PC and make the changes.

Good luck if you previously subscribed through Roku. With this new update, it stopped working. They can’t find my account but they are still charging me. I’ve been emailing with customer service for 2 days and they can’t fix it. Caveat emptor.

My wife and I have two rescue dogs who have bad separation anxiety. We struggled for a long time with letting them be home alone while we are out, and would always come home to accidents or with carpet/furniture chewed up.

A friend of ours suggested this app and it’s been a big game changer for our family. Our boys are genuinely engaged in the content, DOGTV is very stable and stays connected to keep the white noise going, and we have noticed a change in their behavior when we arrive home.

Can’t recommend DOGTV enough for anyone who needs help keeping your dog distracted while your out of the house!

For 60 years I’ve been an avowed cat lover. I still am. But I’ve fallen for my wife’s minpin
Chihuahua mix. This dog is SO smart. And her very favorite thing is this app. We can be out and just sing the jingle and she gets all excited. She loves to get one of her treats, and lay on the bed and watch. And she WATCHES. You can see her little brain working- she loves it. I’ll do anything that makes our Bella happy and this app is at the top of the list.
