A slat mill is a dog powered mill, like a treadmill, but the dog moves the mill belt as they walk or run forward. Slat mill exercise offers a different way to exercise your dog's body and mind. Unlike running on ground, your dog pushes into an affixed harness and powers the belt to move with each step, providing a unique outlet for your dog's mental and physical needs.

Run night is a new weekly service offering on Wednesday evenings (pre-sign up required). Sign up for one or multiple 15 minute run sessions on the slat mill with cool-down between sessions (we may advise a max quantity appropriate for your dog). Run Night is held at our location.

Your dog's first session is $40 as each dog requires Diane to properly condition them to the mill as a trainer to get started. Each dog progresses at their own pace and we do not rush this process. Diane will be present at future sessions as well to assist you.

Each future session is $15 for 15 mins of active mill time and 5 mins allotted for on/off prep.

If you do not currently have an account on this website (via the create account/log in box at top), create an account for you and your dog before selecting a session slot. Thank you (I know it's long).

We are very excited to start offering this fun activity for all!

Guidelines for Run Night:

• Arrive at least 10 minutes before your time slot to potty and equip your dog. You may arrive earlier than your session (please do not arrive before Run Night begins) and stay until the end of each Run Night if you wish and if your dog is able to wait in your car without excessive barking. Run Night is a fun opportunity to meet and socialize with other dog enthusiasts (but not necessarily their dogs).
• Equipment Rules: "Y" harnesses are required. You may use ours, but bringing your own speeds up the process and ensures there is a harness available that fits your dog. Select dogs might run on 2in flat collars in rare circumstances (we have large and XL). Prong collars and ecollars are NOT permitted on the the dog while the dog is ON the slat mill, but are permitted on the premises unless we have concerns.
• We will have water and bowls for dogs available in the gym. Please bring your own bowl for the car (you may use our water).
• We may allow select non-reactive dogs into the yard ON LEASH to wait their turn. Ask if your dog is a candidate for this option before entering the yard with them.
• We will have dogs attending Run Night that are NOT people or dog friendly. Do not pet or let your dog approach other participants' dogs. Once participants get to know each other better, we may relax these rules.
• Crating your dog in your car is suggested for participants that wish to socialize with other participants during Run Night.
• Please do not walk your dog on the street, stay on the left side of the house. Our neighbors let their dogs off leash in the front yard at times, so keep your dog in your car or out of sight of the right neighbor's yard. We may also be rotating dogs through the front of the house.

Unfortunately, we do NOT allow tours of the area where dogs sleep. We constantly have canine guests resting in that area and strangers touring would cause undue stress especially for our guests with fear and behavioral concerns. We can supply video call tours or photos, however in person tours are strictly prohibited. This courtesy is also extended to your dog during their stay; your dog also will not be subjected to strangers walking by their resting area. Thank you for your understanding. 

Beyond operates in a real home. Visits and services by appointment only. Please reach out to schedule.
