Scoot along

How does a dog-powered scooter sound?

Take a look at this article from the London Daily Mail.

I'm not sure if it's just the height of laziness on the part of anyone who might get and use one, or if it's incredibly stoopid.

Dogs are so eager to please that they'd run and run and run until exhausted. So just how smart is having a dog run along side you at great length while you expend practically no energy?

Says the inventor:

'The location and the way the dog is harnessed into the scooter was designed to be neutral to the units handling, and place no weight on the dog,' he said.

That really not the point, now is it?
