The World's Best Pet Cam, Training Device & Treat Dispenser.



After consulting with many professional dog trainers and researchers, we engineered Furbo to stimulate a dog's unique audible and optical receptors that trains your dog to know when Furbo is active.




For example, Furbo will light up in a cool blue hue that stimulates their optical receptors and also triggers a light audible clicking noise that is akin to a professional trainer’s clicking device.



It's fun, scientific, social & comforting.


How will you use Furbo?


Train your dog for good behavior, correct their bad behaviors, comfort them when you are away or simply have some fun sharing awesome (and cute!) photos and videos of them on social media...




The Media Loves Furbo!


Dogs do too, check out the TechCrunch Puppy Party!!!





Ever Wonder What They're Up To When You're Away?


The smartphone app controlled interactive camera  lets you see, hear, talk, play & give treats to when your away.



Check up on them, ask them for a trick or just start shooting them treats to show you care.


Furbo Treat Popper ​

No matter where you are!

Play and have fun with your dog while you're away!


It's trick time, let's have some fun with treats!

Using the Furbo app on your smart device, you can trigger Furbo to ‘pop’ treats remotely. 

The accompanying sounds, lights and speaker alert your dog that a delicious treat is on the way. 


Unlike other devices that silently drop a treat to the floor, Furbo pops the treat across the room to let you and your dog play fetch remotely. 



Designed to accompany a variety of treats and to be incredibly simple to use, you’ll instantly feel closer than ever to your dog while you’re away from home. 



Check in anywhere, anytime to see your furry loved one. 

Furbo provides real-time audio and video streaming (and recording) in crisp 720p HD over a super-wide 120° angle lens so no matter where you place Furbo in your home - you’ll be able to see your dog at all times!

 



Calm them while you're away and let them know everything is okay.


Verbally communicate with your dog.

Give them that extra sense of comfort when you’re away. 

Whether you want to call for them or calm them, hearing your voice when you’re away from home can make all the difference for some dogs!



See what they are up to across the room.

To get an even closer glimpse of your little puppy, you can simply stretch the screen on your smart device for a 4x zoomed-in view!



Worried about your dog when you’re working late? 

Furbo has a built-in infrared LED filter that lets you see an incredibly clear view despite low-light conditions.




Reinforce good habits or reprimand bad ones - as they happen.



Being away doesn’t mean you can’t be there when something upsets them.
Furbo’s built-in microphone senses barking and immediately sends an alert to your phone. 
To give you the most accurate alerts possible, Furbo is designed to calibrate the natural audio of your home environment in order to ignore background noise. 


Dogs in particular both see and hear in very specific wavelengths. 

After consulting with many professional dog trainers and researchers, we designed Furbo to be conducive to a dog’s natural environment. 

For example, when Furbo is ready to launch a treat, the popper will light up in a cool blue hue that stimulates the optical receptors in canines. 

It will also trigger a light audible clicking noise that is akin to a professional trainer’s clicking devices. This helps train your dog to know exactly when Furbo is active and you’re ready to interact remotely. 




Keep your pup happy and entertained while they're home alone so you can avoid the little headaches caused by separation and missing their best friend!




Who knows, go ahead an share...your dog could be the next viral internet sensation!


Using the Furbo app, you can instantly capture pictures and videos of your pups that can be saved directly to your smart device or shared through social networks.

Whether you want to capture one of many cute moments or capture the evidence of some bad dog behavior - you’ll never have to miss an important moment again.



As our global community of Furbo users continues to grow, you can easily share the cutest and most heartfelt moments in your dog's life with other animal lovers. 

Whether it’s on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, or another platform, Furbo will provide hours of hilarious, touching, and entertaining content for everyone to enjoy.



While Furbo is the best tech-companion on the market, you can rest assured knowing that we’ve taken your comfort into mind as well. 

With the touch of a button on the Furbo app, you can easily set Furbo to shut off as soon as you walk in the door or when your smart device is in close proximity to home. 



Using industrial-strength 3M adhesives, Furbo will stay grounded to whatever surface you place it on though most Furbo users prefer to place it on a counter-top surface or next to their home entertainment center. 
Whether you have a larger dog or a scrappy puppy, Furbo’s natural bamboo wooden cover sits perfectly flush at the top of Furbo to make sure your smart pup can’t get their paws on all the treats. 










Furbo is ready to go and guaranteed to ship!


We've already beta tested over 1000 users and are ready for full-scale production.

See what's under the hood!









I am not really a tech person, is it hard to set up Furbo at home by myself?

No need to worry! Setting up your Furbo is a cinch! Setup is only three simple steps away:
1. Plug in each end of the USB cable into the Furbo device and the adaptor.
2. Download the Furbo app through the App Store/Google Play.
3. Open the Furbo app and follow the on-screen instructions to complete setup.


Can I use Furbo with my cat?

You can absolutely use Furbo with your cat. In fact, our office kitty loves it! You may put cat treats inside Furbo for your cat as long as the size of the treats fit into Furbo’s treat dispenser!


Where should I place Furbo?

Good question! Depending on where your dog usually wanders, you can place Furbo anywhere at home away from direct sunlight and moisture. We recommend placing Furbo 12 to 20 inches above the floor, or based on your dog's height. You will find a set of three fixed 3M double-sided tape mounted on the bottom of your Furbo unit to aid with stabilization. .

If you own a tripod, you can also use the tripod mounting sockets on the bottom of Furbo to attach it to your tripod.


Is Furbo's camera angle wide enough to see what my dog is doing throughout the day?

Sure thing! Furbo has a 120° wide-angle camera with a built-in microphone and speaker. To get your dog to come towards the camera just use the Furbo app to toss him treats and speak through the microphone.


Can I use my own treats with Furbo?

Yes, certainly! We understand all puppies have different preferences for treats. It is no problem as long as the size of those treats is smaller than the treat dispensing hole on Furbo. (Round shaped treats with a diameter
around 1 cm (.4") work best.)


Can my family members and I connect to Furbo at the same time?

Yes, you can! Furbo is user friendly for family members, but to protect your privacy, one Furbo will correspond to one email account and password. If there are multiple users, we recommend sharing a family account and password.

P.S. Please note that Furbo can only have two people connected at the same time.


Can I share the pictures or videos captured by Furbo onto my social media accounts?

Yes, sure thing! In addition to saving pictures and videos taken from Furbo to your phone, you can also share them on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, email, and more!


How do I clean Furbo?

Cleaning Furbo is an easy task! For your convenience, you will only need a damp cloth to wipe and clean Furbo.

As Furbo contains sensitive electronics, do not rinse Furbo under running water.


Does Furbo need batteries?

No batteries are needed for Furbo! Furbo uses USB cable and standard power adapter to plug into the wall. This way you can always stay connected with your furry loved ones. 

P.S. Furbo’s power adapter plug supports 110v and 220v, meaning it is compatible with power outlets in every country around the world with just a socket converter.


What is the minimum WiFi upload speed needed for Furbo to transmit data smoothly?

We recommend the WiFi upload speed to be at least 0.8 Mbps (0.1 MB/s) to maintain the best video streaming quality.


What does each of the colored lights mean?

Each light has its own meaning as listed below:

- White light: Furbo is starting up
- Green light: Furbo is ready for setup
- Purple light: No Wi-Fi connection 
- Yellow light: Furbo is in Standby mode
- Blue light: Furbo is in use! 

P.S. Dogs can see the color yellow and blue, which means your furry best friend can tell whether you are using Furbo or not when he or she sees the light on Furbo!


Why did you design Furbo to toss treats?

Furbo allows dogs to joyfully catch and fetch treats as if you are right there playing with them. The tossing feature is perfectly designed to entice your dog to enter the camera’s field of view so that you can wach your dog through Furbo’s app.


My dog barks all the time, does that mean I will keep receiving barking alerts from Furbo?

If your dog is barking too often and you would like to avoid receiving repeat notifications, simply adjust Furbo's barking detection sensitivity through the Furbo app settings.


Does Furbo come with a warranty?

Yes! Furbo comes with a one year free warranty starting from the date of shipping. Your Furbo warranty covers all defects in material and workmanship, except the following: 

- Damage caused by accident, misuse, abuse, disassembly, unauthorized modification or neglect. 
- Damage caused by liquid contact.
