When Mercy the Dog Is Busted Chewing on a Picture, Her Cat Accomplices Cover Up for Her

Carly set up a Ring Indoor Cam, in part, to keep an eye on Mercy, her one-year-old shepherd puppy. "[She's] going through a terror phase," says Carly. "She's eaten every single ornament she can reach on the tree and has proceeded to go after picture frames!"

The plan worked perfectly until her two cats got involved, thwarting Carly's puppy parenting attempts. Thanks to her Ring Protect subscription, Carly was able to save the video evidence of Mercy's shenanigans to show to her husband. "It's hard to stay mad at them when we saw their reactions to my voice," she says.
