Yes, you can get a Fitbark for your dog:
FitBark monitors your dog’s everyday activity and sleep and turns it into BarkPoints. Even if your dog rushes to the gate to meet you, a glance at the Fitbark (in a range of colours to suit “every waggin’ personality”) will tell you if it’s really been lolling on the sofa all day. In fact, you can monitor it remotely. Unfortunately, this probably means that you, as well as the dog, have to take an even longer walk that evening to get its recommended Barkpoints up. As far as I can see they haven’t yet developed an app that will remind the dog to leap up and do some physical jerks if it’s been sitting too long.
Strange as it may seem, Gert has been pondering just such a device for her cat Celie. “Fitsquawk” is what she’s thinking of calling it. Will she manage to turn this
into this? What do you think?

Haha! I love it. Celie looks rather content where she is…
She isn’t the most adaptable of cats. We just tried turning her bed around the other way because it was sagging where she puts all her weight, and she wouldn’t go anywhere near it. So I don’t like my chances of fitting her with a Fitsquawk.
Oh Gert, from the sublime to the ridiculous. FBL (full belly laugh)

Are you saying Celie is sublime, or ridiculous?
I’m not going there Gert!
Leslie
She is truly ridiculous when she thunders down the corridor like a herd of wildebeeste. Once she gets the momentum up it’s quite something.
Well then, I’ll go with ridiculous.
Leslie
How dare you!
FBL.
