MiniPACER Treadmill

Our dogs love this. Great for supplementing exercise in case of rain/mud/weather days.We used treats to get the dogs used to it, and now they almost fight over "who gets to go first". Didn't take very long for them to feel comfortable. We do NOT leave dogs unattended while using it.Relatively easy to build, but it is pretty heavy. So two people may be ideal.Build quality is good.

I received my treadmilll for my furkids yesterday. Didn't even read instructions but put together in less than 20 minutes. Easy! It just took me a minute to figure out what the two pins with circles on them were for. They lock the bottom bar that raises into place.I bought this to help me with my two larger Lhasa Apso mixes that are lazy and overweight.After setting it up I just let it sit in the living room overnight so the dogs all got used to it being in the house. I just played with the buttons to get some beeps so they could all hear the new noise, no problem. Then today I bribed my male Lhasa to walk up on it with a treat. Because he will do almost anything to get a treat this was way too easy. Because he looked completely comfortable on the treadmill I took a chance and turned it on the lowest speed. I kept the treats just out of reach but close enough for him to smell them. Within the first minute I turned up the speed and he was absolutely great with walking on it. Needless to say I was very surprised and he is a pro already on his very first try! My female Lhasa is going to take a little bit more coaxing as she is very timid of anything new but she did get on it without problem. I will try her again tomorrow. I have a total of 4 furkids and the littlest is a Lhasa Apso/Shih Tzu. She doesn't need the extra workout but she already loves getting on it and was walking the first time also. The fourth dog is a Pit Bull and he weighs too much for the mini treadmill I purchased but he wants on it also.With 4 dogs to try and walk enough I haven't been able to keep up. The two Lhasa's were rescue dogs and don't know how to play normally. We think they were caged as breeders. Any way the treadmill will be great for getting them the much needed walking they both need.Bottom line I am extremely happy with this treadmill!!! It is quiet and even the beeps aren't loud at all.I would recommend this treadmilll to anyone who needs help in getting their furkids more active.Very easy to set up....Quiet and the size is perfect for small spaces....I can move it easy enough...Dogs seem to be very happy with it also!I debated a long time before making this purchase and now am sorry I waited so long.

The media could not be loaded. I purchased this in March of 2023. It’s now January of 2024 and we are still LOVING this treadmill! I don’t believe in reviewing anything I haven’t used for a while. This is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! This passed all our tests, with only one minor modification. Kacy insisted (repeatedly) that the side panels be removed so she did it herself. Kacy is a 3 year-old, EXTREMELY bright and energetic mini-Schnauzer with a short attention span.The second time I tried her on the treadmill (first time she spread-eagled), she began walking on it with a leash. It wasn’t long before she let me know she didn’t want, or need, the leash. Several times a day I noticed her standing on the Pacer growling softly, tossing her head and stomping her feet while looking directly at me. I finally got her message; she WANTED to WALK and she was ADAMANT about it! She's been using it consistently ever since.She loves it and has learned that I have to push the buttons before it starts. She pushes at the controls with her nose if she wants to go faster. Because she’s so smart (and independent), I’ve been careful to block the buttons when I start it or adjust the speed. THANK YOU, PACER for making such an EXCELLENT product.Bonnie A. and Kacy 💕

The media could not be loaded. ** Uploaded a new video - leash free and running at a good pace :) a few months in and still really think its a solid investment! ** We purchased this treadmill for our 7 year old Pomsky who's carrying a bit of extra weight (through no fault of her own :)....). We live in AZ which is insanely hot in the summer which makes it pretty difficult to get good walks in. Set up was easy, the overall weight of the equipment is totally manageable between two people getting it upstairs and switching rooms etc. Functionally, works great so far, super straightforward, does the job. I wouldn't say she loves it, but she doesn't not love it :). She about 35 pounds and I would call her a medium/small dog. We have 3 other Pomsky's, 2 a tad larger that definitely wouldn't fit. So I would say if you're considering this, its definitely for a small to small medium size pup.

Disappointing customer service. I've emailed them multiple times and called them twice, and they have been slow to respond and have only provided limited support (I experienced belt issues immediately after setting up the treadmill). Also, the warranty is limited for AK purchases, which isn't mentioned on the amazon site. While it's a nice treadmill, my next purchase will be from a different company that provides better customer service.
