A slatmill is a self-powered treadmill. Your dog decides how fast they go!
What is a Slatmill?
When it comes to running, your pup is likely faster and has more endurance than you do! When a pup can get to a fast-sprinting pace it burns much more energy than a walk or fetch session. Playing fetch can be rough on the joints as our buddies take sharp turns and pivot.
The limitation of moving only forward, like the movement on a slatmill, creates less impact on their joints. This is especially great for older dogs who can take it slow while still building muscle and working their joints.
Slatmills offer more than just freedom to run. It improves their overall health by calming anxiety and stress, building muscle, and combating extra weight. It allows us to quickly drain our dog's energy, which is great for high-energy and anxious dogs, as well as helpful for pet parents who do not have the time or space to exercise their dog.
Our slatmills have a fully adjustable tethering system to suit all sizes and breeds. They also have a resistance braking system to slow your pup down when their session is over. There is a 12-function digital speedometer so we can track the speed, time, and distance your pup goes!
Your pup will run anywhere from 2-20 minutes at a time. All dogs have different temperaments and vary in ability and willingness; therefore, results will vary. Any extra time goes towards entering your home to retrieve, potty, exercise and return them inside.
Your dog is required to be over 6 months old and be current on their DHPP, Lepto and Rabies vaccine.
