Oh, this was just adorable and got a big laugh out of my husband and I! :)

I love that little pup...I laughed my ass off. Some of you need to relax and quit making everything you see a major issue.

I got a kick outta this. So cute. He had a blast and the song fit perfectly. He wouldn't give up. "Just a dog with his will to survive." I know it doesn't say "dog" and it says "man" but it sounds better for the situation.

Thanks for clarifying the leashing/treadmill issue; I had no idea it was used as a therapy. Great idea! This was such a cute vid, but yeah, I was just a little alarmed when I saw the dog was lashed to the tread mill with the little pup running willy-nilly between his legs. Had that been me, I would have been stumbling all over myself!

...this pup was born with a genetic predisposition for FUN!

Wow- did I start that Vicky? lol. I was just wondering since I saw the leash on him if that was typical. Mostly they woould hop on if they wanted to use it. After all that little guy ALMOST had it down pat. He is smart enough I will bet he catches on soon, his little legs and all. haha- very enjoyable to watch, and of course there was someone there holding the camera. I just figured it better not to have a lead attached, a slip could result in him choking quickly.

Lol, this just turns into mud slinging and boisterous opinions. Most people who use the treadmill aren't relying soley on that. I'll just say that my vizsla loves to do it, along with running outside, by the bike, on trails, etc. It is a Godsend when the weather is crap and we have nonstop rain or snow. Go figure, it is what it is.

Made my day... Adorable little munchkin... I am glad they are well taken care of :)

This was my awwwww moment for today. Too sweet. What an adorable pup.

To Cristina, sorry you seem to be getting sort of an attitide with me and I don't really know why. Did you actually read what I wrote??? I am the one defending the actions here with the dogs on the treadmill. Did you not notice that? I am trying to explain to the others who expressed concern that yes, there was someone in the room and I know a rescue group will especially be cafeful. This is what I get in return lol. Thanks, didn't know a camera couldn't operate on its own ha ha. Sorry you took it that way once again, hope you have a great day.

To Vicky Simpson. They weren't unattended. There was somebody holding the camara. Or do you think it moves on its own?

Seriously, no responsible dog owner will leave the dog unattended on a treadmill. Most people who do this are responsible enough to stay with the dog and make sure they aren't over doing it. This is actually a pretty common practice for a lot of dog owners now, it really helps take the edge off. It's sometimes used as a form of rehab (eg physical therapy). I'm sure a rescue group will be especially vigilant to their dogs.

Cute vid, but I'm curious to know why the dog on the treadmill is leashed to it? The obvious concern being strangulation if he were to fall down.

and it's NOT meant to replace the out door walk, it is just used to add extra exercise for dogs that need it.

This is great! That lil one is going to love the treadmill when he get's big enough. Treadmill's are great, such a bonus for high energy dogs. For people asking: You dog must always be supervised while on the treadmill until the dog get's to the point where he/she does not need a leash attached, at that point you could walk away and come back to check on them every few minutes or so. My dog does an hour walk in the morning and evening but still uses his treadmill in the middle of the day...because he love's it!!! You never have a dog run on a treadmill, it is meant to be used at a proper walking pace that is comfortable for the dog. If the dog is panting, slow the walking pace down.

That was just great! We can use him as a role model for perserverance and determination!

If you ever watch Cesar Milan he's a big time advocate for using treadmills for dogs. Especially high energy dogs such as this. They certainly do (as portrayed in this video) need supervision and you must adjust to the dog's indivisual energy level. Most dogs seem to love it, becomes something they look forward to.

That is one determined little pup! I suppose the "big brother" is on the treadmill for exercise. He doesn't seem to be bothered at all about the little rascal trying to copy him. I wonder if that's not dangerous tho, to let the little pup fool around so long, could have a tragic ending with his little paws or his face. I wouldn't chance it. Can't help but admire his spunk. Hope it doesn't give people ideas. This is a controlled setting hopefully.

Im curious why is your dog put on treadmill? For how long?
