Lightning Bikejoring in Southern Oregon
Our puppy Lightning
(BISS Am/Can Ch. Wolf River's Moonlight Ridge*) loves to bikejor with Linda & Paul. Lightning wears a harness which is
specially designed for dogs that pull sleds. We wear a belt which was made
for people who ski with their dogs while the dogs pull them (skijoring). Since
Lightning's training for skijoring began in the summer, we decided to use our
mountain bike on local dirt roads to teach him the commands.
At
five months old, Lightning discovered the joys of bikejoring. Here he is showing
Linda what he thought of his introduction to the sport. Since his training began
when he was so young, I pedal hard to be sure that our puppy isn't pulling
against the line. We strive to make activities fun and safe for our little guy.
