wezwee Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 so say you want you huskys to pull, first of all, i can see my self going in the local streets with a sledge, or a scooter, is there any other options, i just made a joke about roller blades, and it got me thinking, what can they pull, what does everyone else use and where do they go. thanks xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like your center of gravity would be thrown off if the dog decides to randomly stop and pee on something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 lol Does that actually work very well? It seems like your center of gravity would be thrown off if the dog decides to randomly stop and pee on something. Your weight is over the seat and the WalkyDog is attatched under the seat. When the dog pulls your weight Stabilises the bike. The attatchment has 3 springs to absorb sudden pulls. It works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistyrayn Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 i use mainly or for one dog i use push bike with this attachment or my sled mainly run in forests ..nice and early or late when there is no dog walkers etc or some times on farm again early or late not only to miss people but when temp is at its coolest.. it does vary from person to person but most people wont run there dogs when its over 10 or 12 degress depending on personal thoughts and particular breed.... but be aware if you plan on using local forest you do have to obtain forestry commision permit and liability insurance.. or if on farm then owners permission..

rose Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 we use the rig or bike, we run ours on a local racecourse or byways, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutsibe Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I will run with a bike, either one dog with a similar set up to those shown above, or several attached to a gangline, so they're out front pulling. On concrete or asphalt, try to keep the pace slower, to be easier on the joints - run on dirt, grass, or gravel when you can! Need to find a better place to run with my sled and rig - the farm fields around here aren't ideal for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husky princess Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 i met a malamute owner (the mal is massive) and he trains him to weight pull by using his VW camper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I will run with a bike, rig and a sled. I usually run anywhere from 1 to 2 to 4 dogs with a bike and with the rig and sled I can run all 6 of my sled dogs. I don't suggest doing this but my friend has gone "dog boarding" (being pulled by dogs on a snowboard) with 10 dogs before. As far as I know he is still alive...........
