Practice Your Golf Swing With the Doggie Driver

Become Your Dog's Best Friend and Practice Your Golf Swing

You love your dog and you love to play golf, so why not combine your two passions into one?
by

You love your dog and you love to play golf, so why not combine your two passions into one? The Doggie Driver ($17) was given to me and my hubby because we (him more than me) love to get putting. It's not going to feel as real as hitting the driving range because you're using tennis balls instead of golf balls, but this driver really helps you get more power to your swing.

The tennis ball sits in the little holder at the base of the club, and unless you swing your heart out, the ball will stay wedged in the holder. Make sure your dog is big into fetching, because once you get the hang of it, that ball goes a-flyin' up to 100 yards! My advice is to bring your dog to a huge open field, unless your backyard is enormous. The first time I got the ball going, I hit it clear over my fence and into my neighbor's yard, never to be seen again. My pooch was not pleased.

Lawmaker Tries to Keep Pets Out of the Driver's Seat

Sure, Rachel Bilson, Vanessa Minnillo, and Britney do it all the time, but driving with your pets isn't exactly safe.

Sure, Rachel Bilson, Vanessa Minnillo, and Britney do it all the time, but driving with your pets isn't exactly safe.

The Desert Sun reports that there's a bill in the state legislature aimed at pet owners who let their animals creep into the driver's seat.

Assembly Bill 2233 would fine drivers $35 if they are caught driving with an animal on their lap.

The assemblyman who introduced the bill claims that "in an accident in which the car is traveling 30 mph, an untethered, 60-pound dog can cause an impact of 2,700 pounds." Maze also quotes public and private data that "designates pets as among the worst in-car driving distractions, along with eating and cell phone use."

Do you think this is true? Do you let your puppy or kitty ride shotgun with you?

New Year of Gifts: Doggie Driver

If getting fit is a petsolution in your family, and someone else has already clamored for doggie walk duties, let another family member get doggie driver responsibilities.

If getting fit is a petsolution in your family, and someone else has already clamored for doggie walk duties, let another family member get doggie driver responsibilities. Brookstone's new Doggie Driver ($29.95) works like a golf club, while also throwing a tennis ball up to 300 feet. Have pooch sit and wait at a safe distance while you work on your follow through, his doggie instincts take over as he fetches it back, and then the modified golf club even snaps up the ball for you, saving your swing hand from slobber.
