It’s a place where treats and treadmills collide.
A new gym just for dogs has opened its doors in the US state of Virginia.
Kimberly Gilliam, owner of Frolick Dogs, says she wanted to do something “different” for pet lovers.
“We wanted to be the safe, year-round environment where people could bring their dog, work with them, either reinforce training they had or work on new skill development and really just have fun,” she said.
“We think it’s pretty unique.”

Membership will set dog owners back US $700 a year.
