Electric Mill

Does anybody with multiple dogs use the human type electric treadmills for their dogs.if so for how long and what speed do you leave them on.just for day to day mainteneance exercise.

 

It's real beneficial u can control pace and do wind sprints...helps heart rate alot and stamina

 

I use one. They have pros and cons like any other tool. Just keep a close eye on the dog if using one. Injury can happen fast on the E-mill since the dog can't stop or slow pace on it's own. Recipe for disaster if you aren't 100% in the moment with the dog or you dont know the signs of fatigue.

 

Oh for christ sake thats 2 questions ive asked and received nothing but lectures
Im not new to dogs im simply asking other peoples ways of doing things ive not had one answer yet just a bunch of do's and dont's
Never mind,thanks anyway.

 

All of your question were answered. Yes others have used them and speed/distance/time is dependent on the dog.

Experienced or not, Helpful advice regarding the safety of your dogs was provided bro… to look a gift horse in the mouth.

 

I have not seen a single number how is that an answer to my question ?
Of course every dog is different thats why i am asking what YOUR dog does.and yes of course the safety stuff is self explanatory i learned all that over the last 30 years but hey i only have a handful of posts i musnt know anything.
it was a simply worded question as was my question about kibbles on another topic but again no actual answers just do's and dont's lectures.
too many chiefs and not enough indians maybe.

 

LIkewise i dont give a fuck about you and dint ask you to answer with your views and opinions it was a very simple question to draw comparisons between different dogs regarding numbers. little did i realise all dogs are different silly me !

 

Your question was answered. Several times. There is no one definitive answer to the question for how long. It depends on the dog. THAT IS THE ANSWER! Do you not comprehend that?

I do 15 minute sprints with 2 minute trots back to sprint. When I say sprints I mean wide open. That's with one that runs it regularly. I run that one for an hour and 10 like that. Then there is another that is just starting to learn the mill. Obviously you wouldn't run that dog that's not use to that kind exertion all out for an hour. You build them up to it over a period of time and that time also depends on the individual dog. Basic maintenance for a pet I'd do a steady trot for a half hour or so. Adjust depending on the signs the dog is showing you. Other than that, not sure what else your looking for as far as an answer.

The last person I'd insult though on this topic is Slim. Out of anyone here that's who I'd direct a question like this to. Can't understand if you can't comprehend.

 

No one was implying you don't know anything. You're very sensitive and reactive to people, remindes me of little man syndrome. Your questions were answered on that other thread as well. If you been into the dogs for 30 years then why you asking these types of questions. Seems like you've never fed one or worked one. After 30 years you still aint figured out its trial and error with each and every dog as far as both topics you've posted? Like really.....

 

Your absolutely correct there is no definite answer like what came first the chicken or the egg it's not set in stone what to do but you write on the stone in chalk cause you gonna earse some stuff u do with 1 dog and add some stuff with another it's a chess match...u learn more and more daily as u watch your dog...KEEP WORDS WAAATCCCH YOUR DOG..the dog will tell u if he can take more or needs a Lil less

 

Then go suck a dick....

 

Never got in my mind like which mill is better. I am always about the dog. The choice of the right dog is always at first place than the equipment.
For me is more important to pick the right dog than picking the right mill. Each dog has his own program. First I got to know my dogs than I got to look which tool for which dog .

 

The question wasnt a " tell me because i dont know " question it was a " tell me what your dog is doing " question.
Of course there is not one definitive answer i was not looking for one definitive answer i was asking what YOUR dog is doing at the moment....do you not comprehend that ?
Fair play though at least you have actually answered the question with some numbers.
I honestly didnt realise i was asking such a complicated question !

 

Outstanding comeback you win the internet.

 

Appreciate you taking the time to answer the kibble question sir much obliged.

The mill question as i just explained i wasnt asking anything about keeps or fitness at all i was simply asking what you are doing with your dog....speed/time etc would of been perfectly fine.....like if i asked how fast did you drive your car yesterday im not asking for technical advice or the do's and dont's of racing cars im literally simply asking what speed you drove your car yesterday....thats it.

Again i didnt think it was a particularly difficult thing i was asking....but hey apologies if i came across rude.
