    Very interesting contraption there sir. Nice.

    It is quite the contraption. It is far too free spinning for my liking. I thought it would have a little more resistance. The puppy can keep it going. I use it on occasion. I saw one on a video and gave it a whirl. With some practice I will figure out how to work it in. I was replacing the carpet today and Sluggo was in and out of my feet so I gave him a free ride. He just took off running. I thought I was going to have to catch him as he came back around but he just started walking/trotting to keep up with it. Had my son shoot a quick video. EWO

    How long have you had it?

    I too would think a dog might fall off it, but I suppose a smart dog would get used to it and stay within the parameters.

    A couple of weeks. For the grown dogs there is a post with a piece of threaded rod out over the table with a snap hook to keep them centered. The puppy made no effort to get off. The few I have tried run it fairly well but they have to be hooked up. A squirrel happens by and it would the dog chasing them and me chasing the dog. I'm thinking I would finish a distant third. I will get another video of the hookup with a grown dog using it. I will be working on the learning curve in the mean time. EWO

    I planned to make a video of an adult dog but I just never made the effort to video during the work.

    I saw one in a video and sort of winged it. It is a mobile home axle with 1 1/2" square tubing that extends out about 6 1'2'. The platform frame makes it a 14" table. In the beginning I did not like it because it was way too free. I was thinking it would have more drag/more resistance. After working one on it I like it a lot. so much so I am going to disassemble it and move it indoors. EWO
