@Dr. Christina and @Dr. Jeff,
If we use this ONLY on Cooper's harness do you think it would be okay an 1 hr or so a day?
Or do you have any other suggestions?
PS- He pulls A LOT while we try to walk but only wants to run. Unfortunately, we can not run! So until we can train him to heal, we're concerned he might run away.

I do, yes.

He is so young that he has not had a chance to develop the susceptibility to EMFs (or anything) and the tracking tool may help you help him by letting him be outside more.

And using a no pull harness may help.
 
We have some wonderful webinars on behavior and how communication is often the cause of problems. Creating conscious communication, letting him have more choices - so many great ideas.

You may be able to find some young people who can run hard with him, maybe in a fenced area (school yard?). Often mental exercise can help, too - teaching tricks, dancing together, etc. A snuffle mat or hiding food treats around the yard could help with energy.

I agree with Dr. Jeff that most dogs should not be bothered by a short time of EMF on the harness. Remember, though, that every dog is unique, so if new behaviors or symptoms appear, keep the tag in mind a part of the context of possible triggers.

Tracking health and symptoms can really help = download the Healthy dog Journal
