We propose a robot FOR a pet, not for an owner. Our ultimate goal is to develop a robot that contributes to create and maintain better relation between the pet and the owner while keeping good pet's health condition. In this paper, we propose the robot for the pet and discuss current situation of pet industry. We investigate literatures in the context of animal robot interaction and we discuss a possibility to create a new home robot market. Finally, we show an initial example of ongoing interaction experiment using a tele-operated robot with the dog.
