I hate a rottie who LOVES to go for runs! Sadly after a surgery I wasn’t able to keep up with her enthusiasm. But this sounds like something right up our alley! Thanks guys!
Thank you. You guys have been helpful and educational.
i feel so inspired to train my dog to sledding after seeing this wonderful content you guys have shared. thank you
Still the best vid out there 4 beginners in this awesome activity/sport!!! Well done!
A few months back I bought my new Vizsla puppy and she loves to run. I’m 70 so I’m not much into running with her and recently started riding my MB with her. I quickly learned some do’s and don’ts about riding with dog on leash, but no accidents. I had never heard of bikejoring and found your video today. Great job and thanks for the video. I like my dog on my left and she naturally runs to the front left of me. I’m going to try the antenna and see if it will work. I’m also looking for a bungee leash to keep some constant tension for when she slows down. Again, Thanks for the video!!
Thank you for putting this video together it was exactly what I was looking for. I completely agree that it is difficult to find a single source with all the information like you both have pooled together. I look forward to seeing more videos. I have just started bikejoring with my two Bouviers and we were struggling a bit with how to tie them together... very much looking forward to our next time out with neck lines.
Glad it was helpful!
I taught my dogs leeeffft and right right, 😆 easy, let's go and wait. I like the idea of teaching them a ready command👍
I've ben thinking about something like this for my Shepard collie mix..all he wants to do is run!
I've done this with pitbulls, shepherds, collies and mixed breeds! Its great and will change the way your dog behaves (much calmer and less distracted) highly recommend it
Mine too. Koa is a similar mix. McNabb too. 74lbs. If there was a swim-jor he would do that too!
Me too I've been thinking of training my Labrador husky polar to bikejor
Yeah we have a border collie / lab who I think would benefit from this
This is not only for huskies. As long as you have the proper gear and healthy dog. This is a gd form of exercise
I really really appreciate this video. I could not find anything for the life of me. I get back home from deployment in a couple of months and I’m exited to start exercising my four huskies this way. Thank you for the informative video, thank you for the links included for the products. Very thankful fellas.
nice video, great how to without assuming anyone knows anything regarding the sports
Great video guys…very informative. I have a four month old husky and am an avid mountain biker. Once he turns one year I’m looking forward to bikejouring! It’s going to be hard to wait until he’s old enough!
How is your dog doing?
We need more of this! Thank you!
Very informative! I'm a complete newbie! My shepherd is only 5 months old so I've got a lot of time up my sleeve to learn as much as possible before giving this a crack!
Shepherds are great runners! You're going to have so much fun together!
Mine is 5 months too. I am looking forward to this
This was interesting and very helpful. One stop shop for great information. The organization and the information provided was exceptionally done!
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful video. I’m just getting into this as a way to exercise my dog who just loves to run. I started with a walking harness and a flexi lead attached to my hip belt pack. I had been teaching my dog to just run on my right side. I realize I totally had the wrong harness but my initial goal was not to have her pulling. Since she likes this so much, I’m now ordering all the equipment you recommended to transition to proper bikejoring. The part about how to easily put the x back harness on was really useful.
Absolutely wonderful thank you for sharing!
This is what we needed! Been looking into this and couldn’t find consolidated information!
Thanks so much!
Outstanding introduction. Thank you!
Thank you this is so interesting !! I love it !!
Excellent video. Thanks for spreading the knowledge!
This is great thank you for sharing
Thank you! This was very comprehensive and helpful.
Thank you for posting!
Great video, super helpful - thank you for this.
Really enjoyed your video. As many others have said, most informative - I was raised with dogs, but now am considering bikejoring with my own bearded collie. Can’t wait to get started - thank you so much for putting this together
Thank you🙏 This video was more than helpful! Bikejoring is the best sport ever and I hope that my dog will enjoy it the same way like me😍
Thank you for all great info! In a couple months I plan to get a babby Husky and when he’s bigger would love to go biking with him and thanks to you guys I now know the way!
Great video. I’ve been looking far and wide for this type of info. Thank you
Very informative! Much appreciated!
Thanks for such a nice overview! I read a lot about sledding and dryland, but quite a while ago (~8 years ago), so this video was very helpful to refresh my memory :)
Really helpful! thanks so much for the info guys
Just found this video and it’s been by far the best I’ve seen this far,thank you for making this video!
I’m just starting my dog I bikejoring and then leading into kick sledding in the winter. This was very helpful and comprehensive!! Thank you ever so much!
Amazing content!
Fantastic infomration! thank you!
I never knew this had a name. I rode my bike along the side of my lab/beagle for years. It was so much fun.
This the best film I've seen yet thank you
Thanks for this!
Really great! Thank you!
I'm glad this video showed up on my feed. I'm going to start this with my girl this year, I've got the gear, just need to practice!
I have 2 Siberians, I take them to dog parks, but I also play with them and take them on 5 mile walks. Yes they are for sledding, but they'll literally sit with you for hours doing nothing! One is almost 3 and the other is 7 months, I'm thinking about doing this with them as the girl gets closer to a year.
Excellent
Funny, I have all those commands (except "ready")with the same way of saying it, but they are "OK!", "left", "right", "go on", "sloooooow", and "wait" :D
Been looking for this info thank you!
Super helpful video. Might need this for my future Beaceron
This is fantastic. I'm going to start training my dogs now. They're going to love this. Thank you for going in depth.
This was such a good video. Thank you
I like the Harnes of Koi, and she’s a beautiful husky too, all of them💕
Great video and info. Our dog Bosh LOVES to pull! 🥂 Cheers!
Thank you
Thanks a lot.
I started bikejoring with my GSD Malinois cross in December 2020 and I was given a good tip for removing her non stop freemotion harness that some others may not have picked up on yet. I found that she is fine getting into the harness as you show in this clip but really didnt like having her legs pulled out of the 'arm pits' as in a reversal of how you put it on. Someone suggested getting her to put her head down and just push the whole thing off her and let her just step away from it. Works very well, and if your dog is resistant to putting its head down just put a few treats on the floor.
Great video! This will be perfect for my 2 GSP bird dogs.
Nanaimo, my big ol' newfoundland mix pup will be ready to" bikejor" soon. Admittedly, I am researching super early. Thank you guys for all of your content. You are a wealth of information!
Great work! Respect.
Thanks!
This video is awesome Thankyou!
You're welcome! We're trying to come up with other ideas for follow-on tutorials.
@@Spott10 A long run with commands to guide the dogs would be a good start. Not enough footage in this video to appreciate how to avoid accidents by giving commands. Although it`s an excellent introductory vido, thanks.
Very helpful ! Thank you
You're welcome!
This is a great video.
I had always run with my Husky Max 🐺 and had just begun to take him out whilst on my bike and just sort of hashed together his long bungee lead with my bike with varying successes when he became ill and eventually we had to have him euthanized. Obviously as a family were devastated but we are now at a point where we're looking to rescue another dog and Bikejor is something I'm really keen to use as fun/exercise and this vid' has answered all of my questions and was so easy to follow. I'd like to thank you guys for such a good job, really looking forward to getting out there now. 👍
Interesting. Thank you.
This is an awesome video
I’m new into scooterjoring, thanks for this great video, it helps me a lot. Greets from Belgium.
great video! really well explained :)
Nice information, well done.
Thanks!
Wow! Great video. I will look for gear so I can get Milo, my Husky/Australian Shepard mix going. I think he will love this. Thanx.
Thank you for this video, I’ve just started with my Samoyed/Border Collie mix and I wondered what gear to get.
Thanks for the video as we want to start this worth our dogs and some videos just don’t give enough info and informative!! Now we’re just have to find a safe trail. From Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (Bonnie)
Great video guys! I've been biking with my 3 huskies a few years now. I like how you go through lots of options that can work for people. My setup is not typical because I do a lot of city rides. I need versatility because we also run trails.
Anyways...thanks for putting solid info out for peeps. Kudos and LOVE your dogs!
Hey you said you do city rides so I assumes it’s on concrete or asvalt and I’m trying with my pup but he keeps tearing up his pads, should I go with booties or have you figured out something else?
@@kylanjuhl5294 ours don’t tear theirs up too much or at all really but there are products you can apply that help. Ours HATE booties but if yours don’t, that’s an option too. Mine are also trained to run in the grass on the right side when I say “stay right”.. it helps with lots of things like avoiding dogs and pedestrians, staying off hot blacktop, and staying safe when I need then too.
Otherwise, I worked each of our up slowly so their pads would get callus and tough. We also check their paws regularly.. something like dried mud between their toes can get them too.
Good luck! 🍀
Honestly this video was great for me. I saw bike joring videos on tik tok a while back and thought it was quite cool. Then I was surprised with a German shepherd puppy for my 18 birthday and have been loving training her but I have learnt when wearing a harness she like to pull a lot and so I wanted to put that to good use. I bought a new bike got myself some protective gear but I’ve been looking for some real information on how to start this hobby/sport. My puppy is only 5 months old and still has a lot of growing to do yet so definitely not gonna get her to do full bike joring yet but I have been getting her used to being out with a bike and keeping her beside me while I ride and she really loves the exercise. I can’t wait to use the imformation from this video to get to bike joring in the future
Hope yall keep up the mushing vids. Best informational one I've found on this awesome activity. I've got all the gear ordered now I'm just dreading the price of a decent bike...
We plan to! We're already jotting down ideas, but if there's anything specific that you'd like to see or learn about, let us know! We also enjoy canicross with our pups so expect some videos on that as well. As far as the bike goes, I'd say it really depends on where you and your pup plan on going and how extreme you plan on getting. We started on our old 12 year old mountain bikes. They worked fine for quite a while until we started going down harder trails and reached their limits and decided to upgrade to more modern technology with disc brakes.
@@Spott10 i want and need to run a gsp and apbt. Both high energy and the pointer extremely so. I think I will definitely need the disc brakes lol. I have also had a ton of bad experiences with the box store bikes so would rather spend the $ up front then spend it afterwards with Dr bills.
Ideas... toss in distance and time of run info in at the end of runs. Maybe a trail map too? I just love watching the dogs get to really let it out constructively and hope the sport/hobby/playing gets bigger here. It would be cool to see local meet up runs/ overnight trips/camping and even races.
Nice vid.
Great video and very clear explanation.
I am new owner of 2 Huskies, there are now 7months and 11months old and so far we use to walk like 10-12 km at the mountains 2-3 days in the week (the rest days just small walks around) and I'm thinking to start ride a bike in order to have them running a little bit, not necessarily to pull me, just to take off their energy when we do shorter walks daily. Do you think we can try or there are too young for this ? Another question, how long has to be rope affront of the bicycle to the dogs? Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷💙
Bikejoring is the best! :D
Excelent video. I am totaly new on this. I speak spanish and a little of english. I do not understend what kind of brand is the best harness.
Great video! and Hello from the West side of the Cascades!
Dude, where was this a few years ago. Thanks for making this, I have a husky German Shepard mix that loves to run and I was looking for this. Really appreciate the info, thank you.
Shit ur lucky! My German shepherd husky mix barley even runs she just walks so I'm contemplating if I can even bikejore with her.
@@aly5386 Marcus will sprint like crazy. I go to a dog park and the first thing is sprinting around the fence.
This is SUPER amazing ! Thank u both for such an informative video on the basics. I also have a husky but was looking into a rigg, after watching this decided i may need a kickbike instead. Thank you
I love my Siberian, he's already running next to my Bicycle :D
Great tutorial where can we get the frame for the big wheel scooter?
great video! I need to figure out some way to burn off my huskies' energy and this seems like a lot of fun... now I just have to learn how to ride a bike 😂...
You guys are awesome! Love this video. I hope I kind find a cool group to go with like you guys in Southern Cali ^_^
Love the video! But with the antenna you guys have something you attach the leash too where can I buy that or does it come with the antenna?
Depending on the line you use, there are multiple ways to connect it to the bike, but we'd recommend something like this, wrapped around the frame or the stem (not the handlebars): www.alpineoutfitters.net/collections/scootering-supplies/products/replacement-tuglines-gl019?variant=31774639620168
Watching this in 2023 why no new videos
I'm here because I have a husky and you sound like me. Lol. Looked into it before getting her and couldn't find any info on UA-cam. Thank you for the video.
4:45 brakes 5:25 antenna
A recumbent quad be a good choice?
Hallo from Germany.
Where did you buy the the „first aid“ backpack for the dog?
Hello,
Which measure of leash do you suggest for 1 dog in line?
Thank you
I have a question: my pup keeps tearing up his paw pads and I’m thinking to buy booties but I’m not sure if there’s something better to use
I'm newbie myself I was just wondering if it's hard to go from dryland mushing to dogs pulling a sled during winter
What is your opinion of the Omnijore? I just found out this is a thing me and my dog have been doing it since he was 6 months old. He is an aussie and needs over 3 hours of exercise a day at least can go 8 hours though.
Is there a link for the steel cable bungee that’s connected with the two carabiners
My husky is 8 months old and loves to run. Can I start introducing the bike to him now and take small steps to teach him bikejoring ?
Can you maybe make a viedo where you show us how to teach the dogs the commands? Like left and right? I got a Husky aswell and would love to start doing this, but i got no clue how to teach him that.
I had no idea this is what I was doing haha. My pit/boxer mix LOVES to pull. My red tick hound is a lazy bum haha. He does pull in the snow though.
At 24:36 where can i buy that thing that’s on the bike ? That you hook up the like with
What is the piece that connects the line to the frame of the bike? Not the antenna but the actual piece that you hook the line to?
Are lurchers suatable for bike joring? Looking to get into it
can you use a recumbent trike to go bikejoring with your dog?
Hi, how long do you recommend the line to be for a single dog?
Thank you so much. I have a 5 month old Siberian husky pitbull mix and she is so full of energy . I can't keep up with her and when she doesn't get her energy release she kind of becomes a monster so I'm trying to find a way to give her that release. The problem is she's very difficult to walk she pulls and she is so strong so I've been thinking about a cart . instead of trying to teach her not to pull just let her pull. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
