bike riding the dog fit

[Guest vin]

Bought one of these off fleebay..I usually go in the local parks etc etc on my bike with the dog running along behind me...but she always goes on the grass when she has the chance and follows along at her own pace of various amounts along the journey.

So i thought if i put her on one of these I can regulate the pace better and also keep her feet on the concrete etc etc..Also can do a bit of road work late at night.

Just keep a eye on her pads mate. Roads and footpaths can be very harsh compared to grass on your dogs feet.

its goodto keepthere feet tight and toughens there pads tomuch grass work will soften them and cut easy when working thats my thought

thats how i used do it , (till ) feckin Bryn nearly pulled me over handle bars, he saw a feckin tree rat the other side of the road going up the tree. He went mad and pulled me into the other side of the road , very dangerous . He really goes mad for them , norm he no prob and dont pull , but them he is a strong bloody nutter

i was going to get one of them the coppers keep stoping me when i jog my dogs on bike but i dont like the long lead what if the dog sees a cat you have no way of stoping it from pulling you off the bike i just ride with i hand and hold the lead

Its a good job my dogs not big enough to pull me off the bike Ray...She just needs some Road work to toughen up the pads a bit.

If she's picking the grass it may be that her feet are already a little sore, I've noticed with mine that they will do so for a while when I first increase distance.

The bike will give a good base of cardiovasculer fitness but she will need some galloping to get her running muscles up to scratch

bike work is good for general fitness and toning but like nookanna says dont go too fast til her pads get use to it

this is the one i use,shock absorber built in,so no chance of the bike being pulled over.weve been using it for the last 2 weeks now but with the bloody weather its gone tits up lately.A very good piece of kit.

[Guest born to run1083]

Good piece of kit that and worth while buying, I've got to get some serious miles under my bitch as this year with the way her season has feel she's seriously unfit for how I would want her to be so close to the start of the season. How much they going for at the mo ?
