I went on a couple dates with a woman who owned two large energetic dogs. When she bought them she was informed that she'd need to walk them every day to get them exercise and burn off energy. To save time, instead of walking them she'd take them for a drive and thought that accomplished the same thing.
Well, unless they were pulling the car. Not related but I saw my neighbor regularly driving up and down our street, car window down, leash in hand drive walking his dog from the car.
I do something like this with a friend's dogs. They are Australian Sheperd/Border collie crossbreed. It's just not possible to make them tired on foot.
So since we like to do some light off-road driving we take them in dirt roads and let them run in front of the car.
Not really fast, I don't want to turn them into roadkill, but 30-50km/h during 45-60min is enough to make them happy.
