1. apt-get install watchdog
2. systemctl status watchdog

it's enabled, but not started since we've not booted since the installation
of the package.
3. systemctl start watchdog system/ watchdog. service; static; vendor /bin/sh -c [ -z "${watchdog_ module} " ] || [ module} " = "none" ] | slice/watchdog. service
4. systemctl status -l watchdog
● watchdog.service - watchdog daemon
