Since the products which are currently in the market, do not compare the dog’s behavior changes based on its breed and age to know whether the dog has the appropriate behavior according to its breed and to its age, the proposed system will be addressed that problem too.

● How can sensors and computer vision be combined to track dogs’ behavioral changes?
● Check whether our pet dog has the appropriate behavior according to its breed and to its age?
● How to use dog breed identification to track unusual behaviors of a specific dog breed?
