Well, today, I barricaded the sides of the treadmill, stood next to her and started it. Again she freaked out, just like she had done in the past, which was expected. I just stood by her as she kept trying to hop off and flail her legs in all sorts of directions, Riverdance-style...and after like maybe 25 seconds...she figured it out. She was still pretty nervous about it, but she realize that she could walk on it.
I had a couple of sessions with her and she's getting better. Still nervous, but she's getting more and more used to it. Hopefully after a couple of days of doing this, she'll actually want to do this as a fun activity.
Anyways, here's a video of what I think is our third session today. Each session was only like 2-3 minutes (freakout included).
