A video demonstration or guide to help you train your dog to walk or run on the treadmill. This illustration is part 1 and will help you train your dog to run on a human powered treadmill. This segment covers surface conditioning, movement, speed changes, and how to end the exercise. The dog in the video is Anna, an 8 month old working German Shepherd breed by In Dogs We Trust (Wir Vertrauen) of St. Peter, Minnesota.

@cbrowncolors One week per stage in training - by the end of four weeks they are up to a jogging pace w/incline and running 15 - 20 minutes. It usually takes 8-12 weeks of daily treadmill exercise before they can run off-leash. I always recommend supervision for the safety of the dog.

how many days did you spend on each stage? How did you keep your dog from immediately scampering off? As soon as I turn it on my dog BOLTS off.
