Upper East Sider Spotted 'Walking' Little Dog in Remote-Controlled BMW

UPPER EAST SIDE, NY — An Upper East Side woman has officially taken "dog walking" to new heights.

In a post to the Reddit "aww" sub-forum a user posted a candid photograph Thursday of a woman driving her tiny dog around in a remote-controlled BMW. Because a remote-controlled Toyota just won't do. The pampered pooch appeared to be enjoying the high-life, evident by the smile on its face and it's tail shot up in the air.

Here's the photo posted by Reddit user cruilmunk:

As seen on the Upper East Side: a lady driving her dog around in a radio-controlled BMW from aww

From the picture it can not be immediately determined where on the Upper East Side the dog took its daily drive. A message sent to the poster was not immediately returned.

As one might expect — this is the internet — the post inspire strong reactions from fellow Reddit users. The post itself received 5,744 upvotes — which resemble "likes" on other social media sites — and more than 350 people commented on the post.

But the issue of personal dogs for cars proved to be divisive — again, this is the internet — as commenters both railed against the ruling-class and took the time to appreciate a cute image.

One user boldly declared, "This is one of the dumbest pictures ive ever seen ಠ_ಠ," which did not go unchallenged.

"If you had an awesome radio controlled car and a little dog you would definetly be doing this. I know I would," replied another Redditor.
