Why Standard Exercise FAILS Fat Dogs

📉 The Sedentary Crisis

63% of dogs get <30 mins daily exercise (Pfizer Animal Health)

Arthritic/elderly dogs often refuse running

💡 The Breakthrough

Flirt Poles for Dogs create high-intensity bursts (15-20 cal/min) that:
✅ Mimic prey movements → Triggers instinctive chase drive
✅ Protect joints (low-impact lunges vs. pavement pounding)
✅ Work in tiny spaces (apartment-friendly!)
