Real Time Results
Subtle movement of the Donut under your dog’s weight causes a shift in your dog’s center of gravity. Your dog will naturally try and maintain balance, causing the muscles to engage and strengthen. It’s that simple.
Expand Your Dog’s Playground
A strong core is the powerhouse between front and rear body movement. If you are a dog, it helps you when you sit up, stand up, run, turn, twist, jump and play. Too cold or hot to walk your dog outside? Exercise your dog indoors on a FitPAWS playground!
Please NOTE:
Sizing Guidelines:
The FitPAWS® TRAX™ Donut will work for most small, medium and large dogs for weight bearing and balance exercises (2 paws on Donut, 2 paws on floor). If you plan to use your FitPAWS® TRAX™ Donut mainly for core conditioning, measure the length of your dog when it is standing from the front legs to the back legs. Your dog should be able to stand in a natural stance on the top of the Donut without being hunched over. If you dog’s natural stance measures 16” or less, you will be able to use the Donut for core training. Small breeds and puppies should fit fine.
SMALL BREEDS:
Your dog should be able to stand on top of the TRAX™ Donut in a natural stance without being hunched over. If your dog’s natural stance (from front feet to back feet) measures 16” (40.5 cm) or less, you will be able to use the TRAX™ Donut for Core Training.
MEDIUM TO LARGE BREEDS:
If your dog’s natural stance is more than 16” you can use the FitPAWS TRAX™ Donut with two feet on the ground and two feet on the Donut for weight-bering exercises. You can also use two TRAX™ Donuts, or combine with other FitPAWS products. The goal is to maintain a neutral spine.
• Remove the TRAX™ Donut from bag.
• Locate the plug(s) taped to the ball and set aside.
• Using a hand pump or compressor, inflate the ball. Place the plug in hole when inflation is complete. Push plug in firmly.
• Adjust the air amount inside of the TRAX™ Donut for different balance challenges. WAIT 24 Hours and fill all of the way. At full inflation the Donut has less dynamic movement and so is less challenging for your dog. To increase the -balance challenge, remove air slightly so that the Donut has more dynamic movement.
• For best performance, you should be able to depress the surface easily, approximately 2” with your -fingertips, soft to the touch. Any inflatable that is stretched too tight has the potential to burst.
