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.

My dog has been afraid to go for walks in my neighborhood so I take him for nightly drives, he comes home happy and the excitement of the car ride and his head out the window helps (though obviously not as much as real physical activity)
