I have a couple of Dalmatians. We do a ton of walking and playing in the backyard.

I feel bad for them this week. I know they are going stir crazy after getting a foot of snow. We don’t mind playing in the snow, but the temperature has been bitterly cold.

How do you exercise your high energy dogs when stuck at home?

    Option 4, treadmill. Surprisingly easy to train them on.

      Eh.

      If you want to get a treadmill for your dog, sure.

      Most people won’t want to keep that around the house, and critically, human treadmills are dangerous for dogs- the start and stop sequence is too fast and ends of the belt or exposed edges and rollers are all likely places to catch a paw (and break bones.)
