Canine Aqua Treadmill

Canine Aqua Treadmill

Designed and manufactured locally in Australia, these canine aqua treadmills are an above ground compact treadmill designed for long term operation. Its smooth surfaces and user-friendly controls provide a safe working environment for both the operator and tour canine counterpart.

Clear wall panels surround the treadmill to provide a spacious, bright, and open environment for animal comfort and allows the operator full visual overseeing during exercise, all combined to obtain an aesthetically pleasing layout and design which presents itself seamlessly in various rehabilitation or training centre locations.

The canine aquatic treadmill utilises the natural properties of water – buoyancy, resistance, and temperature. Aquatic exercise is practiced extensively over the world with brilliant results, be it race or performance preparation and conditioning, to rehabilitation needs and general well-being, these aquatic treadmills are a compact and efficient way of combining all the positive results associated with aquatic exercise.

Additional Information

Deep Water Capacity
ThoroughTread Aqua’s unique structural design enables an impressive 1300mm (51 inches) water depth, providing full buoyancy for even the largest of animals, reducing overall weight from the lower legs by as much as 90% during exercise, resulting in the ability to complete low leg impact exercise.

Fast fill/empty hydro-pumps ensure efficient use of time throughout the treadmill sessions, with the water depth adjustments able to be made at any time throughout the session also.

Water-Wise Design
All water in the aquatic treadmill system is re-cycled. Water is stored and filtered in the storage tank ready for transfer into the treadmill vessel for use. On completion of the session, the water is then transferred back into the storage tank from the vessel while passing through a filtration sluice to remove any large waste from the water, becoming readily available for the next fill.

Chill Salt Water
Engineered from marine grade 316 stainless steel, these units can operate with high concentrate salt water which equipped with our titanium heat exchanger & chiller unit, enables a water temperature down as low as 2.0 degrees celsius (35.6 F).

Extensive research shows chilled saltwater treatment can be used for many lower leg injuries by primarily reducing inflammation and removing fluid build-up (this build-up causes painful swelling around the injury). The hydrostatic pressure assists with blood circulation around the injury and swelling reduction.

Chilled saltwater assists in the treatment of tendonitis, arthritis, desmitis, hoof injuries, jar up, bursitis/synovitis, swelling, open wounds and skin infections and more. The regular use of chilled saltwater therapy immediately following exercise, reduces many of the stresses within the tissue well before inflammation develops.

Quiet, Smooth & Powerful Motion
A high performance, variable speed treadmill (conveyor) is driven by an industrial grade electric motor, gearbox and variable frequency drive that provides an effortless speed range from 0.07 Kph to 17.0 Kph (0.43Mph–10.5Mph) controlled via a 256 colour touch screen control.

Shock Absorbing Incline
The conveyor deck is a shock absorbing platform, providing additional comfort and safety for the animal. This is also the case when the treadmill is in the incline position of up to 7 degrees.
