Fido Gets Fit

Exercise gadgets go to the dogs

Is your pooch packing on the pounds? We know, it's winter and it's hard to motivate and step outside on frosty mornings for a little aerobic exercise. But remember, if Bowzer is like most, his day is pretty domestic and there's not a lot of room to roam in the home. Your pup needs to move; for the sake of his health, well being and behavior.

The Dog Walker Treadmill may have the solution for pet parents pressed for time. Weighing in at about 3 feet and 25 lbs, this workout equipment offers an indoor exercise alternative. Don't let the Dog Walker's small size fool you, this quadruped tread is making major blows in the fight against canine obesity. Now your furry friend can hop on and run to his heart's content any time of day. The Dog Walker simulates natural running and lets your pup go at his own pace and carry on for as long as he pleases. This cool canine gadget is complete with remote control speed adjustment from 0 to 3 mph, safety guard rail, and light compact design...and the whole package isn't that heavy on your wallet; the Dog Walker totals just over $130 dollars.
