Most unwanted or destructive behavior from dogs comes because of boredom or lack of excersize. Treadmills are a great way to give dogs the excersize they need in modern society where we don't always have the time to take our dogs on hour-long walks daily. Cesar Millan, the best dog handler in the world encourages the use of treadmills.
To the people who post ignorant/negative comments: just because you think dogs are "cute" doesn't mean you know what is best for them.

ilove staffiess !!

@trigot33 exactly right!...have you ever tried to get a Staffie to do something it doesn't want to do??

@PhilJamesTaylor The 'real' dog treadmill has no motor and the dog runs his own speed, so he needs to be tied on to prevent him either running off the front or falling off the back.

I was thinking of getting a treadmill for my Staffy...only because I can't exercise him like he really needs.
I should imagine he'd need some training ... was it very difficult to get him to accept it?

ha ha quality i could do with 1 of these for my staffy.



i think this is fine as long as they aren't tied onto it, or is that how you train them to do it?
i love staffies, though.

At first I straddle the treadmill with the dog on a lead and run the mill slowly until the dog gets used to it. My dogs have all loved it once they got used to it and ran it without being tied on.

i'm in Scotland, they banned pits in 1992 along with some other breeds. Some people still have dogs taken from them if they're suspected apbt's.

do you do this exercise him a lot? how long does he usually run for? how much exercise do SBT's need?
