Running errands together creates a great bonding and socializing opportunity for dogs and their owners. But, what if it’s too cold or too hot to leave your dog in the car?
Well, unfortunately, the solution might mean needing to leave Fido home for his safety. Unless you can find a DogSpot location that is.

In Grand Rapids Michigan lucky shoppers can use DogSpot for free. DogSpot and Purina have teamed up to provide a safe spot for dogs to hang out while their owners run quick errands at Bridge Street Market in Grand Rapids Michigan. The DogSpot, which normally costs 30 cents a minute is now free for shoppers there to use, courtesy of Purina.
