**1. How does your dog-powered energy capture work?**
We run dogs on a non-electric slat mill, which is controlled by the dog's pace. The mechanical motion of the dog turning the belt is captured by our magnet/dynamo-style generator components mounted under/around the mill. This system then converts the dog's motion into electricity and stores it in batteries, all part of our patent-pending K9 generator and conversion system.

**2. How do you ensure the safety and wellbeing of the dogs?**
The safety and wellbeing of the dogs we work with is our top priority. We use top-of-the-line Dog Trotter USA non-electric slat mills, which are also used by police K9 units. The dog controls the pace on these treadmills, ensuring they are not overworked. Furthermore, we are fully insured to protect against equipment malfunctions. 

**3. Can I book a run for my dog?**
In the future, we will offer paid runs for families with high-energy dogs. We recommend checking our website for updates about this service. The typical run is a 25-minute appointment with specific pre- and post-run care instructions for your dog's comfort and safety.

**4. How does your initiative benefit the community in times of disaster?**
During disasters such as fires, floods or monsoon storms that down power lines, we convert our mobile van into a Community Charging Hub. We drive the charged battery packs to an impacted community and set up a welcoming area where displaced residents can charge their phones and connect with others. This service doesn't power a whole community grid, but it helps people stay connected when it matters most.

**5. How can I support the K9 Power Plant Project?**

You can support our mission by making donations or granting support at [this link](https://marathonmuttsaz.com/page-3).
