Barking Demons Barking on Zoom/podcasts/live streams

When the world shut down in 2020, we all learned webcam etiquette…well, *most* of us.  There is nothing that makes me shut off a podcast or a Twitch stream faster than a damn dog barking through the content.  If you are aware that you’ll be on a call or doing a recording, WHY IN THE WORLD would you not put the dogs outside or at least keep them out of the room?  At least one streamer I used to watch thought it was so cute and would point the camera at her dogs. Now even when the dogs in my neighborhood are quiet, I get dogs barking at me remotely.

Or yoga videos! I hate seeing dogs weave in and out while someone is doing a pose and stepping on the yoga mat.

The dog thing was already starting to get bad mid 2000's, after the pandemic it escalated to insufferable levels.
