It all started on Black Friday 2019. We bought 2 Amazon Echo, set them up in different rooms and enjoyed the ease with which we could request particular music, pause and restart it, ask general knowledge questions, Weather forecast, ask for jokes etc. All seemed well.
Fast forward a few weeks. We observed our dog's behaviour changing, she didn't want to be indoors - hiding under the shrubs at the far end of the garden even through the night, went off her food, had her tail between her legs more often than not. We visited the vet who thoroughly examined her, found nothing else and thought she may have a dental problem. She had an anaesthetic and a teeth clean but no other sign of dental problem was identified. Unfortunately she reacted badly to the anaesthetic and it was about a week before she stopped vomiting all food and water intake. She still was one very unhappy little dog. I started looking online to see if I could find any clues there. I came across a number of articles from people who said that their dogs had been affected by Amazon Echo, all to do with the frequency they operate on apparently. So with nothing to loose and potentially a lot to gain we unplugged Alexa mid March. I'm delighted to say that within 48 hours our dog was starting to be more like her old self again. She is back at my heels 24/7, indoors or out. She is still a little wary of being in the rooms where we had the Echoes plugged in.
Has anyone else had any experience of something similar?
Does 5G operate on these same higher frequencies? I seem to remember reading an article about it some time ago, now I'm worried it may create a totally alien environment for some animals when it arrives.
Edit - just realised this is not Fuerte related other than we live on Fuerte! Happy to move it to member's section if you prefer Sam.
