Some of the components I've used in my contraption
Lazy Dog-O-Walker
The Lazy Dog-O-Walker is an ingenious contraption to take the effort out of taking your favourite pooch for exercise. The device is pre-programmed to take in local lamp posts and, with its anti-cat detector, able to avoid any unpleasantness. Equipped with a ball wanger for entertainment and a supply of treats and water for the trip, the Lazy Dog-O-Walker will allow you to concentrate on doing the dishes and other domestic luxuries. Oh, and the contraption will pick up after said pooch with its on-board Vac-U-Poo.
