Motion Sensor Detecting Small Dog
The site clearly states: " Detects intruders, not pets. We precision-engineered our motion sensors to detect the unique heat
signature of humans. Not pets."
I am trying to gain the trust of a rescue dog. Not five minutes after arming the system and leaving, the 15 pound dog came out of his crate and was merely rolling around on the LR rug. This immediately set off the motion sensor that is sitting almost 6 feet of the floor. I was watching for him via live camera. I am furious with the system! What good is having the system at all if it can't differentiate between an intruder and a small 15 pound dog??

The advertisement is "factually challenged". If you have animals, you will have to "play games" with the motion sensors to avoid false alarms. It is wise to set them to "secret alert" until you find an installation which does not pick up the animals..
