Solid K9 Training

Jeff Gellman  //  Jeff brings you his own brand of no-nonsense, real world training program, using sharp humor and honest wisdom. Jeff is a champion for consistant exercise, and is seen daily, power-walking his pack on the East Side of Providence, Rhode Island.  He also rehabilitates dogs, many pro bono, who other trainers and programs have written off, giving them a desrved chance to be spared from euthanasia. Jeff's life-changing techniques and bold approach bring a fresh insight to canine behavior modification and obedience.  When not engaged with his Solid K9 Training clients directly, Jeff thrives on taking packs of dogs on wilderness excursions, so they can experience their true canine spirits in the natural elements.    Jeff has logged tens of thousands of hours giving people the opportunity to live better lives with their dogs, and has innumerable client testimonials.  Jeff is the proud father of 6 girls, and loves photography, kayaking, and hiking.

Treadmill work

We work dogs on treadmills every single day..we don't use the treadmill to replace the structured walk, we do this in additon to an exercise program. It builds both mental and physcial stability, dogs love the structure and look forward to getting on the treadmill.

We often have dogs in a downstay or the Place dommand while they are waiting to get on the treadmill.

We have 6 treadmills on the property on often work 4 at a time...each dog is at a different level, some still need us to stand and help them, others just start walking when the treadmill starts moving. 3mph seems to be a good steady speed for most of the dogs.
