Fitbark – A Fitbit for your Dog? The Newest Wearable for Your Pet
The fitness tracker craze is not letting up and now the tracker world is expanding even further with the Fitbit equivalent for dogs – FitBark. The theory is – if we spend time monitoring our own health, shouldn’t we also monitor the health of our pets? Not a bad idea considering statistics given by the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention states the percentage of overweight dogs is on the rise and currently 54% of dogs in the US are obese.
FitBark actually sounds an awful lot like Fitbit and other fitness trackers. Weighing only 8 g it fits dogs of all sizes and comes with multiple color options. Water-resistant and designed to last, the FitBark may just be what you are looking for to get your “best friend” in shape and healthy!
