* if you are having company over, redecorating or going away for the day.
* if you work long hours and are not home for the majority of the day.
* if you don't have time in your busy schedule to take your dog for a long walk and some exercise.
* no more guilty feelings of leaving your pet alone all day.
* after playing all day, your dog will come home happy, socialized and best of all, tired.
