how about making a runner for him, also if you have the means you could make a weight pull area for him. you can buy a sled for around $50, wieghts don't have to be heavy to get a good work out

I was out lettin one of them run, and had just got her into the truck when she spied one speed by. Well quick as lightning she was right behind it, real good thing the guy controlling it was real good at cornering.....lmao. Had to catch her on one of her passes. In the future I may have to get one....;)

Nothing right now, buddy let me borrow his Savage the past couple of days and im hooked(Think I fried the tranny tonight though!). Right now Im leaning towards a Savage or a Jato. I found out the dogs love it on accident too.....he started going nuts on the chain so we took him off and he chased it for a good couple hours total last night, couldnt keep him in the house when he started it this morning, hell I figure its cheaper than a mill and alot easier to get him to get going! I cant believe the diffrence between these things and what I used to think of when I thought of an rc car- and how addicting is the smell of burnt nitro!

I can almost picture that, leaping out from behind a truck and blindside football tackling a dog running 40 mph ha!

depending on where you live you can jog your dog next to your car/truck. also springpole like someone said.

I never seen him run that fast i thought he was a greyhound LoL. But he caught up to the truck and tore the body to peices and the tires. It was pretty fun but if any of yll are looking for some FAST r/c stuff send me a message.

i am cause mty pup is only 9 mos old and she wears me out in 20min too fast for a reg rc and i dont think the walks are doing enuff

I have had this problem in the past. I hate injuries:mad:. If you have a yard/backyard...get yourself one of those comfy fold up summer chairs at the local wal mart...and play fetch with the dog. This is great conditioning exercise for the dog. And the best part is, all you have to do is sit in the chair and chuck the ball.

[BullDozer]

Lots of flirtpole works. Also if you have a pal you can get a soccer ball and set up another chair about 120 feet away and just play catch let the ball bounce a couple times before it gets to the other guy. Back and forth all day long - real good wind sprints if you can get the dog to want that ball bad. We used to do it all day long in college with a lil game bred male we had while drinking beer. Damn that male was in some shape and could go all day long and we'd tease the hell out of him with that ball the whole while making funny high pitched voices and such.
