FlexPetz – world’s first rent a dog service

Flexpetz

FlexPetz. Fancy a dog but don’t really want the full time commitment that comes with it? Then you need this dinky little rent-a-pooch service. Just plunk down your monthly membership fee of $49.95, cough up an annual maintenance charge of $99.95 and hand over (hey, we didn’t say it was cheap, did we?) $24.95 a day and you can have a choice of lovable pets to come stay with you for any period. Oh and did we mention the $100.00 ‘trainer’ fee? Or the $35.00 pickup and collection fee?

Aw, but c’mon, think of the loving look on the face of little Rover as you tuck him into his little doggy bed, put on his sweet likkle custom walkies lead and feed him the free pre-packed food that’s supplied as part of the rental. Each mutt also comes with a GPS collar and dog bowl, which saves you using your best dinner plates. Members agree to use the service at least twice a month, or they get charged anyway.

The service is available in the US and UK, and we’d just like to go on record as saying what a marvelous idea this is. In fact it should be extended to children. Rent–a-Toddler would be a wonderful addition to the social fabric of our lives, doncha think?

  FLEXPETZ is a shared dog ownership concept that provides our members with access to a variety of FLEXPETZ dogs. All FLEXPETZ dogs complete obedience training and some FLEXPETZ dogs are also certified as therapy dogs. Through the FLEXPETZ shared dog ownership concept, members can spend from just a few hours to a number of days with each of our dogs. FLEXPETZ dogs are available in varied breed sizes to ensure compatibility with our member’s individual lifestyles and unique circumstances.

  • Oooh! Poor dogs! Whoever thought this up ought to be ashamed of themselves – dogs are pack animals, and they’re making them change pack regularly. That’s just not fair…

  • Who comes up with this shit? This has got to be one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.

  • Bizarre isn’t it?

  • They have a service in Japan to rent a dog for a day http://www.japansugoi.com/wordpress/rent-a-dog-in
