Hidden cameras come in all sorts of things now. You can buy teddy bears with a camera in the nose. You can have a pack of cigarettes that is actually a camera. What I haven't yet seen, though, is hidden pet cameras.
Probably, it would have to be attached at the collar of either dogs and/or cats. Weight isn't an issue now, since there are cameras that weigh an ounce out there. To hide it, though, might be the real challenge. A flower or bow on the dogs collar might do the trick, with the lens in the center.
The camera would have to transmit the image to a remote viewer, of course. I think the range on these types of cameras is enough now to get a clear image from around the neighborhood.
If a dog was trained, you could use this system for more specific spying too. In fact, it has probably been done before, whether or not such a camera has been marketed yet. The first such use might be for a reporter's expose of the conditions in dog kennels. Unfortunately, a more criminal use could be to case a building. Put the dog in there, watch the scene from a safe distance, and if the dog is caught, you already got your footage.
Ever wondered where your cat goes all day? You could find out with hidden pet cameras.
