spring pole.....

how many time a week or day should my dog work the spring pole???i dont want him to get burned out on it......what does everyone recommend?

 

I work mine about 3 times a week for 15 mins a day.

 

i let my dog play with it when ever she wants 2 her spring pole is hanging over her cage

 

OK. I am pretty new at this. For I am new parent of a beautiful pitbull. I do not know the concept in spring pole. All I know is that there is a line hanging from a tree with a stuffed animal attached to the end and the pitbull jumps and hangs. True or False. Please explain more.

 

A stuffed animal wont work for long..lol. unless its a pup..heres your mental pic...a garage door spring or similar type spring tied to a joice in your basement or a tree limb outside with a rope hanging down about 5-6 feet off the ground..then tie what the dog will hold on to the the rope..a old fire hose or tow strap works good or a old pair of jeans so the rope dont get bit on and wore out...this will last for a while..and make sure the dog has to reach for it so they support at least 90% of their weight at all times and can hang when the spring contracts..but touch the ground when it stretches...

 

I have seen some spring poles on sale on ebay. Do you think that those are good? The website is on one of these posts. Thank you.

 

I like to adjust the height of my spring pole.....LOL don't attach your support to anything important tho....my damn dog pulled the soffit right off my house...
