Farm Animals Love The Trampoline?
By Dog Lover | December 9, 2009
Well according to one family in the UK they work very well together. A family in England has found out that one of their pigs actually enjoys using the trampoline as excercise for around 45 minutes at a time!
However this sparks certain questions, is this hygienic, is it legal and best of all, how many can we get bouncing at the same time!
But in all seriousness I think that if the animal enjoys bouncing up and down on the trampoline then it could save you time trying to make it lose weight in other ways. This could be very good for an animal such as a dog as you will then not have to take it out for a walk!
My dog loves to come onto the trampoline but doesn’t seem to understand the concept of bouncing and usually just comes on to have a bit of a wrestle and play with the person that is already on the trampoline.
Is this something that could be classed as animal cruelty?
I personally feel that if the animal is enjoying the time on the trampoline then there is nothing wrong with it at all. If it is not liking that the 10ft trampoline is working out for the animal then take it off straight away or could really get you into some trouble.
Should it just be the trampoline or not?
There are so many other things out there that animals could use right? swing slide could perhaps be used as well?
It really does depend on the pet. On top of this think of the hygiene, your kids will use all of these things and there are plenty of nasty things that an animal such as a pig can carry around so just be careful when it comes to this.
You could end up in some serious trouble if your pet is injured because of this.
