Flexible Pet Rentals - Doggy Timeshares at FlexPetz

Are you a dog lover, but you’re just too busy (or lazy) to take on the full-time responsibilities that come with pet ownership? Then Flexible Pet Ownership / Pet Rentals may be the option for you. You basically rent-a-pet when it suits you, and take it back when it doesn’t.

(So much for bonding!)

FlexPetz is, in its own words, "flexible pet ownership." Once you've ponied up the $150 registration fee (plus the $99.95 annual account-maintenance charge and a $39.95 monthly service charge), you can browse one of its several locations online, choose the lucky pup who'll get to spend some quality "you" time, and then simply pick up your dog. (You can also use the FlexPetz shuttle service for an extra $17.50 each way to deliver and/or collect your dog to and from your home and office. Like takeout! Except it goes BOTH ways!) It costs $19.95 per day to rent a dog on a weekday, and $29.95 per day on weekends. Did I mention that there's also a $75 per day late fee if your rent-a-pooch is overdue? (treehugger)

I can see abuse rates going up. Just think how much foster children are abused when they go from family to family.
