Hungry canines in south London were given an unexpected treat when the world’s first vending machine for dogs pitched up on Clapham Common this week.
While their owners can just pull out some loose change in exchange a sugary treat, these dogs were made to work hard for their rewards.
The animals are challenged to pull a bone attached to a lever, which causes a tennis ball to fire from the roof of the machine.
They then have to sprint after the ball and return it to the prototype before picking up their treat.
Every element of the machine was created with a dog’s needs in mind, encouraging fun engagement and exercise.
