Check out today's posts at The Bargain hunter blog. As you know from a couple of previous posts Julia Scott is doing pet-themed post for today (Wednesday is Theme Day). So go check it out for some unique ways to save money on your pet.

Before you know it they'll be opening a dog gym in your neighborhood complete with treadmills, ellipticals, and aerobics classes. OH BUT WAIT! Apparently they're already popular in Japan! But if you have a home gym you can include Rover in your indoor workout routine. What better way to bond with your dog than by simultaneously walking your treadmills to music or, better yet!, your favorite television show (preferably Animal Planet if poochie has anything to do with it).

Petzen has just introduced a motorized treadmill that allows you to walk your dog without leaving the house. Now there's nothing better than running or walking with your dog outside at a park with fresh air but now you can walk your dog even in inclement weather.

Here's just a snippet of the press release:

The DogTread incorporates modern features into a motorized treadmill specifically designed for dogs and is available in sizes for small, medium and large dogs. With speeds up to five miles per hour for the small treadmill and an adjustable incline, it greatly simplifies the problem of exercising pets no matter what the weather or schedule dictates. Its space saving tilt up design allows it to be easily stored in a closet or behind a couch when not in use.

"In a perfect world owners would take their pets on daily hikes through beautiful woods and meadows," said Amy Eskelsen, PetZen co-owner and professional dog trainer. "But bad weather, leash laws, limited open space and the hectic schedule of daily life doesn't always allow this."

You know what my favorite aspect of this treadmill is? The bone-shaped dashboard!! How cool is that?!

The suggested retail price for the treadmill ranges from $499 to $599. For more information on all Petzen products click here.
