This dog's bark may or may not be worse than its bite, but its breath definitely tops both.

Throwflame, a company out of Cleveland, has combined its ARC Flamethrower with a robotic dog to create the Thermonator.

Billed as the first-ever flamethrower-wielding robot dog, the Thermonator sells for $9,420, according to its listing.

According to Throwflame, the Thermonator has a 30-foot range, with a one-hour battery life and is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled. Its uses include wildlife control, agricultural management, ecological conservation, snow and ice removal, as well as entertainment and special effects.
