Great product, well made and first class instructions included with package. Our dog took to the Dog Pacer right away and she is running 20-30 min every day now. The company has a great website and lots of videos to show you what to do. The product came by FedEx and was easy to assemble. This is the best price treadmill on the market and they were quick to get back to us when we emailed a questions. I would recommend the Dog Pacer to all dog owners and it has changed out outlook towards dog ownership.

The Dog Pacer is the most amazing product I could ever buy for our dogs. They are happier and have lost the extra punds they put on by laying around all day. I would definatley recommend this to others.

As I suspected, getting a dog used to this is a long process, with many treats. At first the dog was very afraid of getting even near it, and ran away when the beeps went off as it started up. After three weeks he now jumps on it enthusiastically and general exits the front. I've use fairly quick speed. I think it will be another three weeks before he starts staying for more then seconds. Nothing wrong with the product. It is just as described and well constructed. But be ready for some work.

Thank god for the invention of doggy treadmills; Keisha is trotting happily beside me as I type this on my Kindle fire. She does all the work and and I read or watch an episode of West Wing.

Had it for 5 months, no mechanical problems thus far. My American Eskimo was getting 3 walks a day and it still did not wear her out...just a dog that requires a good workout at least once a day and she thinks playing fetch is silly. At the same time, this breed does not do well at dog parks...so I was at my wits end. We took her off leash as much as we could into some isolated countryside, but that would only be possible on the weekends and not everyone has that option.

She runs for abt 45 minutes, at a brisk pace, at least once a day. And when it soars into the 90's here, I will not have to wait and walk her at 10:00 at night just to get her some exercise.

Get one. It will markedly improve your life with your beloved companion and decrease the stress of trying to find the time/proper outlet for a high energy dog. Worth every penny.

Got this treadmill to exercise an energetic 1yr old 70lb pitbull mix. I like that the runway platform is extra-long (it's maybe 1-2 feet longer than a typical human treadmill) so that she has room to extend her stride, and occasionally lag towards the back. It runs pretty quiet and seems sturdy.

The box was pretty heavy--I'd recommend getting two people to move it. Once it's set up though, it does have wheels on one side so it's not too hard to tip up and roll into position.

I didn't really read the manual, it was pretty easy to set up. I was confused for a while at why the treadmill seemed to change speeds on its own--turns out it has pre-programmed workouts where the treadmill speeds up and slows down. Use the P0 manual mode if you just want one speed. I like the pre-programmed modes so that my dog will have a couple minutes of running, then a couple minutes of slower jogging rest time. Dogs are built for burstier kind of running, not steady long distance running anyway.

The magnetized emergency stop is a great feature. I like being able to instantly stop the treadmill. I tried attaching the clip to my dog's collar once, but the clip and magnet is kinda big and awkward for that, and she got scared by the magnet clanking on the ground when she pulled it off, so I just keep it unclipped and pull it myself whenever I need to.

It took about a week to get my dog used to walking on the treadmill. She wasn't scared of the treadmill or the noise, but it was pretty awkward for her to get used to the idea of the ground moving underneath her. First she got treats for standing on the treadmill. Then I would turn on the treadmill for only a second, while giving her treats, and giving lots of praise for walking forward on the treadmill instead of getting scared and jumping off. Then more treats for getting on the treadmill and standing still while it's still of. Each day, I would gradually extended the on time to a few seconds. Each new session, she seemed more and more comfortable walking while the treadmill was moving. Lots of patience, repetition, and treats. Eventually, she was able to keep walking forward, as long as there was the promise of a treat in front of her nose. I've slowly upped the speed and the time intervals of giving her treats.

Now, two months later, I'll give her a treat every 10-20 strides or so (I try to keep it random), and she can do 8-15 minutes at a time on the fast program setting. I can tell she's getting tired when she starts to lag behind on the back half of the ramp, instead of being at the front eager to be fed. If it gets too fast for her, she'll just stop and let herself get rolled off the back of the ramp. I try not to have her get off like this, but she's young and agile and there's no ledge at the back where her feet might get caught in, so I'm not overly worried about her doing this. I tried attaching her leash to the top bar while she was wearing a harness, but she balks at having any leash pressure while on the treadmill.

Your experience will vary depending on your dog. Just be patient and let your dog become comfortable slowly.
