I was not sure about spending this much money but I'm happy I did. I work 6 days a week and there are times i am not able to give my dog the exercise she needs. With this treadmill it gives me the opportunity to provide an area for my dog to get the exercises she needs.My dog was afraid of the treadmill at first. It took a couple of times putting my dog on the treadmill before she would just jump up on it. Now my dog will wine and beg until I connect her harness to the treadmill.The treadmill base comes put together. The legs of the treadmill require assembly. The instructions are just pictures. I would recommend you have two people as it was difficult putting it together by myself.

Was missing very important parts like the parts that attach the legs to the track, still put it together enough just to see if it was worth replacing but my dogs were terrified of it anyways so not worth replacing. I love the idea of the treadmill, would have tried harder to get my dogs to like it if all the parts were in the box.

My dog loves to stand on this. He doesn’t like the running part yet but loved to jump off it. Two person build if you want to make life easier. Mostly preassembled. Easy to use.

Don't let the lack of reviews discourage you. I got it when there was one review and I was nervous about thst. Now that it's here, I'm super happy with this purchase. But know, it is big and takes up some room, so make sure you have a good spot for it as it does take up about 6ft by 2ft of space with about 4ft of hight.First, I'm going to say the one thing I dislike. The instructions were terrible. There was 6 small pictures with tiny tiny numbers telling you what to assemble. This is the only reason I took a star off. While the paper instructions were bad, it was very easy to put together though with some comon sense thinking. By myself as a 5'3 woman, i was able to assemble it on my own in less than an hour.Outside of that, I love everything about it. The metal is sturdy and I love the wood boards. It even came with a few extra in case one breaks. I'm going to add a little grippy tape to it to help my dog grind his nails down when he runs, and I have a Cerebellar hypoplasia dog (he has back leg motor problems) that wants to use it, but needs more grip to do so.It's not to loud, just about what you'd expect from a treadmill. My malinois/shepherd mix (in the video) hops on it by himself 5 times a day and gets a really good excersise. They controller how fast or slow it goes. And it is easy for then to slow down without you to stop it. I like that you can lift it for an incline, and there is a way to make the tension tighter so it's harder to move the boards for a better workout. It functions exactly how you think it would and works perfectly in comparison to some of the more expensive ones.Don't expect your dog to hop right on. Both shepherd mixes took to it well. We are training our boxer. Some dogs understand the concept right away, so prepare for a lot of treats and coaxing them in how to do it. Give it some time before giving up. This is a great tool for people like me that love my high energy dogs, but can't always give them the excersise they need. This has saved our malinois. He was becoming destructive out of lack of running, and now he's back to our sweet and loving boy.
