Calling all bargain hunters: Amazon Prime Day is now in its final hours but there’s still time to nab yourself a bargain.

Pet owners, this Furbo dog camera deal is for you
Ever wondered what your pet gets up to when you’re away (I know I do). A deal for curious pet owners who want to ensure their pup is safe and happy at home, Furbo’s 360 dog camera (read: a treat-tossing surveillance tool) is currently half price.

The team hasn’t tried this latest Furbo 360 dog camera, but the previous generation of the pet-friendly surveillance tool went down well with our tester. The problem of the fixed camera position (our tester’s main issue) is no longer, thanks to a new wide-angle lens that rotates to show more of the room. There’s also motion and barking alerts and even a treat-toss which actually shoots out treats at the tap of a button. Furbo requires a subscription but the camera itself is half price for Prime Day.
