Happy: The collar that tells you your animal's emotions
A new dog collar is set to tell owners when their pets are feeling happy - and TEXT them when they are sad.
The invention will monitor the temperature, heart rate and breathing activities of precious pets in relation to their breeds.
The "smart collar" will then send an alert to your phone by email or text message if it senses a problem.
Manufacturers behind PetPace say worried families will be able to tell when their pooches are sick, hungry, or just a bit down in the dumps.

Health: The technology will build a health profile
Sensors built into the hi-tech device are similar to those used by athletes to keep a close eyes on their health.
The collar can also monitor how many calories have been burned in a day and can detect if an animal is in pain by assessing physical and behavioural signs.
Dr Asaf Dagan, chief veterinary scientist at PetPace said: "This collar will enable pets, for the first time, to 'tell' us how they feel.
"Most importantly, out smart collar will allow veterinarians to provide better medicine and better service to their patients while sealing the bond with pet owners."

Robin Hargreaves, president of the British Veterinary Association told the Veterinary Times: "This kind of monitoring system could be very helpful in the diagnosis and management of disease.
"However, as with any type of diagnostic test monitoring the health of an animal, the interpretation of the results should be made by a veterinary surgeon, taking into account the clinical history of the animal as well as a physical examination by a vet."
The hi-tech invention will go on sale in Britain next year for $150, or around £90.
