Benefits of mill work

Why run your dog on a slatmill?

Confidence, Focus and Sense of Achievement

We all know how amazing it feels when you have achieved something or have over come stress or a hurdle.

Mill work is a safe and controlled method of introducing woofers to suitable level of stress that we work through together to build the dog's confidence.

To teach them trust in us but more importantly in themselves - to make them feel confident, focused on task and feel the pride of figuring out the challenge thrown at them.

Making woofers feel invincible!

Behavioural Challanges

Not all dogs are suitable or comfortable for public outings or off leash activities and unfortunately modern urbanisation hasn't left much space for our more challenging canine friends to express their natural behaviours such as running their heart out.

Woofer Wagon is open for all dogs no matter their reactivity status.

Health Benefits

Resistance training is so much more than just walking or running, it promotes:

Increased metabolic rate

Increased calorie usage (great for weight loss)

Increased performance and endurance

Better mobility

Injury prevention

Stimulated muscle growth

Increased bone density

Strengthened connective tissues

Possible joint pain, arthritis and other inflammatory conditions prevention

"The world’s leading geneticist from Harvard Medical School shared, just keeping our dogs lean and giving them 5-10 minutes of breathlessness every day, heart-thumping exercise, can contribute to slowing down the aging process!" The Forever Dog*

Improved Obedience, Impulse Control

So you think your obedience is on point?

Combining obedience drills with mill work while the woofer is experiencing high arousal and drive - let's see what we can do!

Teaching a speed rocket to WALK and control their need to sprint when chance arises - that's what we call impulse control on point!

Other Reasons

Weather extremes - too cold, too hot, too windy or too rainy? No problem - Woofer Wagon is climate controlled!

Time poor - need to break up long stays on their own? I'll come to your home, run your dog and return the woofer nice and tired

Injury - physically unable to walk your dog? You don't need to do a thing, I got this!

Pulling you off your feet - mill work is perfect for those crazy pullers while you are working with a trainer on your loose leash walking skills

Just want to do cool stuff with your dog - Hey, welcome on board!

    The Mills

    The mills used on board Woofer Wagon are made by Firepaw in Bulgaria.

    Firepaw is a company founded by the dog lovers Lyubomir – robotic engineer and his son Georgi – semiotician as with the concept to provide European market high quality personalized Dog Treadmills and dog workout equipment.

    All Firepaw Treadmills are dog-specific, designed for the way a dog learns, thinks, and moves.

    Mechanical movement

    The treadmills are exclusively mechanical. Your dog is not forced to run, it can stop anytime if it doesn’t want to run or there is a trauma. This is impossible with popular generic  electric treadmills for dogs. In addition, the dog can achieve its maximum in speed, stamina and fulfill its full physical potential, all controlled by itself.
