LAS VEGAS’ MOBILE DOG GYM
RUN DAWG Mobile Dog Gym was founded to give dogs the ability to exercise in a safe and climate controlled environment. We use treadmills that have no motors, and keep the van cool so they can work out in comfort.

It’s the best 30 minutes of your dog’s day.

WHAT IS A MOBILE DOG GYM?
READY?
We come to you!

Our team of canine fitness coaches will arrive at your location and introduce your dog to our non-motorized treadmills and out climate controlled van. The beginning is usually pretty slow as the dog learns that the treadmill will not hurt them, and begins to understand that walking on a moving surface will not make them fall. We will encourage your dog with toys, clapping, whistling and positive motivation. The first few sessions will be all about learning a new skill, and growing to understand what the treadmill is.

Don’t worry if they don’t run the first time. They will be mentally exhausted from all the learning they have done, and will probably sleep like a baby tonight.

SET?
Learning mode engaged.

After your first run, your dog will begin to understand that they can move faster on the treadmill without falling over. Most dogs begin to walk within one or two sessions and will keep up a steady pace while being encouraged. We stay with your dog the whole time and keep motivating them!

The second or third sessions usually result in both a physical and mental workout for your dog. We are continually assessing your dog’s physical condition as well as their personality, so we never overwork your dog past their limits. They can stop any time they are tired, and will get periodic rest and water breaks.

RUN!
Beast mode activated!

If your dog likes to run and chase things, after a few initial sessions they will be confident enough to begin to run on the treadmill. We encourage them to run for short periods of time, then walk in order to cool down. Our “sprint” sessions are for dogs that have built up enough stamina to run for longer periods of time, and we will let them go for slightly longer before bringing them back down to a walk. Periodic rest and water breaks are provided, and the final five minutes of your dog’s workout will be a cool down session where they will walk slower and slower to reduce their heart rate.

Most dogs grow to love the treadmill workouts, and will look forward to them. Many dogs recognize the van, and get excited knowing they will be able to run.
