Novelty Item: When your dog sits, it says "Hi, I'm Truffles!"

This product clips onto your dog's collar. When the dog is not moving and it's head is at an angle consistent with sitting, it plays the user-recorded message.

Recordable greeting cards are available for about $3.00 and the and the sensors required to detect the correct position range are extremely cheap. In quantity, this device could be as cheap as $5.00 to make.

I have dogs, and I don't see the sit very often except around humans.

Imagine a dog sees you, comes over, sits down and announces "Hi, I'm Truffles!"

Might work better as a dog training collar with embedded speaker and remote. Teach your dog to properly introduce himself. Teach him some manners!

I was expecting something like Navaho code talkers....coded battlefield communications via canines.....

"I'm not certain, sir, but I think he's saying he's found weapons of mass destruction and a bitch in heat"

Norm i can believe the Bitch in heat but not the WMD.

just, add appropriate accents to this a Chihuahua says hi in a Mexican accent, an Alsatian in an Arnie accent etc.

The sound of a dog farting when it sits down would be quite amusing. +
