Treadmill Training

A dog needs adequate exercise, this will prevent any unwanted behavior, such as barking, digging, fearful behavior that may lead to aggression or separation anxiety. One exercise option that can be achieved in the comfort and safety of your home is having them properly trained to exercise on a treadmill. Treadmill running option can fulfill your pets needs both mentally and physically. It is well documented that running or cycling with your dog for 20 minuets equates to a 2 hour walk. For families that have a backyard, rest assured that a back yard does not equate a well exercised dog. Treadmill exercise is an excellent fitness plan and an awesome service provided.

About Ramella


All my life, dogs have provided me with a sense of peace and tranquility. Their simplicity and the unconditional love they give have always been a source of great joy, and the basis for my passion and desire to make working with dogs my life’s work. I have been successfully training dogs for over 15 years on a full-time basis. During that time, my success as a trainer was not only the result of classroom instruction, but also from self-study, and most importantly an inherent and heartfelt connection with dogs of all breeds.

I studied under Anthony Jerone, the founder of The Academy of Canine Education and became a Certified Master Dog Trainer. Both field work and classroom studies served to broaden my knowledge of dog behavior and training strategies. Presently, I am living my dream educating owners and their dogs. It has been my experience that training with compassion develops the purest form of love, and a life long bond between you and your dog.

I look forward to working with you both in the near future.
