Robot dog walker

Robot

March of the robots! Now imagine that, as you step outside your house to let your dog indulge in his morning stride, you are then faced with robots and flying drones doing the same dog-walking duty as you. What if you can use robots as dog walkers. Can also cleanup after the dog. Crazy futuristic idea, right? Maybe not so crazy after all, if we are to believe the recent tech development. Although we have yet to see any of those projects being mass-marketed, we cannot deny that having a dog-walking robot could have clear advantages in the long run. We still have to wait and see.

When your dog needs to go for a walk in the middle of the night or early in the morning, imagine the satisfaction of having your trusted drone do the job, thus letting you enjoy some valuable extra minutes of sleep.

?if someone can come up with a drone capable of walking the dog, pick up the mess after it, talk to the neighbours and also bring back the newspaper and a bottle of milk, we may well change our mind about those possible dog-walking bots
