Results tagged “iphone” from South Bay Pets

I was skimming through the Apple iPhone app store last night and came across this one. I dowloaded it  for two reasons: It was free. The dog in the cartoon resembles my dog. And I own an iPhone.

Wait, that's three reasons.

Anyway, I'm not sure what the point of it is. You walk a dog by tapping your thumbs to the touchscreen. When you do this, the dog trots along. But the dog seems to trot along even if you don't do anything.

Here's the official description:

Stuck at work? Feel like getting out for a stroll? Now you can... and you can Walk the Dog!

Hit the trail, wander through the English countryside and take in the scenery.

Your Pet Dog is ready to go -- tap the paws faster and he'll start sprinting ! Ease off and you can enjoy a gentle ramble with your pet - without getting wet !

Walk the Dog anytime -- at home, at the office, watching TV -- best of all it's free !

I know a couple of good apps for people who walk real dogs, but I'll get to those another time. If anybody has any suggestions or knows of any good apps, we'd love to hear from you.
