Jenny Plan Question *Pic Enclosed*

WELL OLD FART I DONT NED TO READ A BOOK AS I Have first hand exp of a jenny , and a collar will never pull a shoulder out like a harness can , so please explain to me ,(as your so mich older and dumber than me ) how a collar will hurt a dog on a jenny ?

 

that collar will pull on the neck . you need your neck to do just about everything . you get your bite and front leg strenght from the neck . your shoulders go when the pipe keeps going . i may be old fart . but i aint no dumb ass .

 

your funny old goat

 

This may be a dumb question but,, why would there be a reason for a dog that is working a catmill to suddenly go from a full run to a full stop????
I would imagine that when it's time to take a dog off the mill it would be good and tired and not running at top speed, in fact it should be barely trotting...


Someone was asking about a catmill that the boyz in the phillipines built. Probably the best track I have ever seen for a catmill,,, but still not done the way Mayfield said to do it,, as I said, not one yet has built their catmill the exact way Mayfield said to do it and that makes all the difference. But here are a couple of pics of some catmills, including the one over in the phillipines.

 

Has anyone seen a pic or have one of Don's actual setup ? If so can you post it to show what the "ideal" setup is. Like the track on the bottom photo looks like a rubber surface.

 

That set up so needs to be in my yard. lol

 

no expert at all on the subject just my opinion but i think the banking of the track may help with the sudden stop issues to some degree lower rate of speed the dog will trot or walk at the bottom of the track higher rate the dog will run higher on the bank and when it slows it will gradually decend to the bottom

 

Damn thats one nice looking catmill! Some serious work put into that one

 

I hate hate HATE when mine does that. hes been good lately but when we first started doing it, almost every friggin time! When he does it now, he doesnt stop... just slows down and keeps shittin... :confused:

 

the problem with your design they would be prone for hip dysplacia and shoulder dislocation you should put your jenny in a dome i'll show you a pic of the jenny that i use

 

i guess you are refferring to my catmill..

 

it could be in your yard if you bring your yard here in the philippines

No doubt! lol I've been tempted to go visit with my landlord and bring back a nice slat mill!

 

like this one zoe?

 

Mengor that is simply a beautiful set-up and as I said, probably the best laid track I have ever seen. There was a man there who used to make some real nice slat-mills, I think he was called the millmaker but I have not seen anything around from him in a number of years now, are you this same person?

Maybe you could comment on your catmill and if you have ever had any injuries to your dogs from the catmill?

Once again,, great set-up!

 

thanks gringo pistolero so far with this jenny none but with the old jenny that we were using before there was a lot specially dislocated shoulders


this was the old jenny that we used..

 

EXACTLY! lol

 

Damn mengor that is a great setup u have there.

 

thanks kristi..

 

mengor if you don't mind what's the degree on the catmill your using now , from flat track or bottom to the top where the dog runs @ on the embankment ?
