Iconoculture: Leased cars. Vacation condos. And now, timeshare dogs. FLEXPETZ lets dog lovers who don't have the time or space to be full-time pet owners make playdates with dogs from breed-rescue shelters.

FLEXPETZ members pay $40 a month, plus a daily fee, and can reserve their dog of choice online. But before part-time companions start tossing Frisbees to Fido, they must go through mandatory training with a certified FLEXPETZ handler.

Not all dog lovers can care for canine companions 24/7. Renting a favorite breed for a few hours or several days is a great option for consumers who travel a lot or live in buildings that don't allow dogs.
