Ok, so I'm cheap..

Before you laugh at it consider this, It didn't cost a thing and it works great. Rocky pulled me about 3 miles today, that little boy has some drive let me tell ya... And I couldn't wait...

Ok,

I giggled a bit.. well a lot, before i actually looked at the pic. It looks really good! It deffiniteky looks better than if i would have done it ... lol

That type of thing is done by skill trade, I have been a woodworker since I was like 13. It runs in the family. I go down the river trail and everyone that is walking their dogs smiles at me, I tell them they are doing it the easy way

Hey that was a good job. My husband does that sort of stuff to but never thought about that lol. Good job Eric.

i thought i was cheap lol jk. thats sweet man. how did he do on it? i want to do something like that to it just kind of worrys me that he wont be able to keep up

That looks good!

Rico will be able to keep up! My dad's 10 yr old APBT runs and when I mean runs haulin' @$$ when my dad took him out on riding on the bike for the first time! lol He ran for 3 miles until my dad slowed him down. You know b/c he's old!

It actually was pretty simple to do

He pulls me as far as I want to go. It's good for the leadership role too..
Zues is so fat he has a hard time keeping up. If you do it just go the speed he wants first...

How come????

man your guess is as good as mine. and if i take him in a prarie you would swear hes retarded, running around jumping around acting like a !!!!! dear lol. i swear he would be an awsome hunting dog anytime he sees a deer he gets that look in his eyes and its on.

Sounds like he has ants in the pants....

lol

Nice Job on that... But i gotta ask....... What is it?? LMAO

Screw cheap! that was a great idea. You can never outwalk your dog. Second hand walking never raises a dogs heartrate to the anaerobic state where good cardio conditioning can be applied so I think what you did was well thought out and very usefull!

GOOD THINKING and well made. I bet your could market that idea and IM not kidding!

I was actually thinking dang I should ask eric to make me one of those see how much he would charge lol. I need one for my bike cause the way I do it now is kind of dangerous but they all kept up lol and I was pretty precautious make sure my babies don't end up hurt.

That is awsome dude. I love it. How much would you charge for it? If it not toomuch I would buy two One for my sister and one for my son.

Ok..... So what is it??? LMAO....

It's a built in bike chain to run the dogs. It hooks to their collar.

Lmao!!!!! I thoughht it had to do with pulling..... Thanks Redsky....

Oh man sorry wayne but that would be funny!

You guys and gals are giving me too much credit for that, but thanks.
Wheezie, Zues is 75lbs and when he lunges towards other dogs it only yanks on the bike a little bit, I can keep the bike under controll, mostly because it doesn't have enough low center of gravity. If I could figure out how to lower it you would hardly feel it at all...
OFK, I'm with ya on the marketing of it, problem is there is already one out there called The Springer. Legends Mami found it for me on the net...
Oh well, It wouldn't be the first time. Ever see those RC snowmobiles? (THAT WAS MY IDEA) I even drew up some blue prints for it but never though to get a patent...
Redsky,Mikado, Its custom made for my bike , I would have to have some measurements, As far as how much, if I was to sell them It wouldn't be much. The only thing I would have to buy is the bolt that holds the base of it together just over the tire (I don't think you can see it in the pic)

yeah it would be funny.. after my pride and wounds heal lol. I'm gonna get one, im always trying new ways to work rico

That reminds me of the time I was running Spike and I was just holding the leash on my bike when a deer ran across the road and Spike spun the front wheel around and I bit the dirt road soooo hard... I still have a scar on my forehead from that....I had gravel embeded in the side of my face...
