Thanks to blog TokyoMango for this mention of a new product designed to keep your Dogster lean and fit — a pedometer!

My dog Ruby is so lazy. I always say I want her to get at least half an hour of exercise, but I never keep track. All she does is lie in the sun by day and lie in the bed by night. So I think I should get her this Doggy Pedometer, which kills three birds in one stone by being a pedometer, a timer, and a dog tag. The top display shows how many steps she would have taken, the bottom display shows how long she’s been frolicking for, and on the back there’s a panel where you can fill in your information in case she frolicks too hard and gets lost.

Here’s the link to the Pedometer’s home page for those Dogsters fluent in Japanese.
