FitBark 2 Dog Activity Monitor
Dad pulled a small green disc out of a box. I thought maybe it was a new kind of treat. It was not.
Dad
Okay, I bought this. You were there when I opened the box. What did you think?
Boldo
I thought you bought me a new chew toy. Then you put it on my collar and it just sat there. No squeak, no bacon flavor, no edible parts. Disappointing start.
Dad
Let's talk about the smell. I know that's your main thing.
Boldo
Smells like plastic from a factory in a place I've never been. Not bad, not good. A little like the box your new phone came in. I sniffed it once and moved on. If it smells like anything else later, I'll let you know. It doesn't.
Dad
You've had some time with it now. Is it any good?
Boldo
It's... fine. I forget it's there. But you keep checking your phone and muttering about my sleep score. You seem happy. That's something. Also, have you checked the treat jar? It's getting low. Not a hint, just an observation.
Dad
I paid seventy bucks for this. Be honest. Worth it?
Boldo
Seventy dollars? For a plastic disc that tracks how much I nap? That's a lot of bully sticks. But you seem to enjoy the numbers. I'll say this: it doesn't buzz, it doesn't make noise, and it hasn't broken. For you, maybe worth it. For me, I'd rather have a new ball.
Dad
Final answer. Would you recommend this to other dogs?
Boldo
If your human likes data about your sleep and steps, then yes. It won't improve your life. But it might get you extra treats when your activity is low and your human panics. So I recommend it, but only for the side benefits.

Boldo's Verdict
💩💩💩3 out of 5 poos. It doesn't smell interesting, but it doesn't annoy me. Dad loves the numbers.
