What a ruff life.

Hey, we walk our dog a lot. But he could use more exercise than that. The treadmill is not just for lazy pet owners. If it's a supplement, it's for responsible pet owners.

And yeah, how come it's ok for humans to get their exercise in such a techno-convenient way, but not animals? Stupid double standard there.

At least dogs don't have computers on their's

The Dog Whisperer used a treadmill on a dog that needed exercise.

I walk about 5-6 miles a day at my job. The last thing I want to do is walk when I get home.

But using a treadmill is much better than no excersise at all. How about a video screen so the dog can see a cat, another dog, or a toy to chase? I want a VR dog treadmill!

A loop of the mailman arriving would work for my dog.

Besides, my dog-on-a-treadmill philosophy is 'If it's good enough for Astro, it's good enough for Pluto.'
