I had thought of one of those for my pup.  Look up Urban mushing and you will find a bunch of options.

My dogs would love that!!

Where did you get the scooter?

I'm in OZ so not really gonna help but we got ours from Sydney.

It is probably fun as hell, but definitely not a just buy it leash up the dogs and go type thing.

At least the scooter has brakes.

I did!   

I reckon I have half worn out the brakes since Christmas! The problem I have is the lead dog is deaf so I have absolutely no control over her other then braking! Adds a whole other element of excitement to it! I will throw the action camera on and get some video.....funny as hell!

Using your brakes only makes her stronger

Looks like someone gave a tick steroids!   

Could probably save a ton of cash having him pull my balloon trailers around though.

Has the look of 'have you seen my testicles?'

A quick pic of our two four legged kids. Annabelle on the left is deaf as a post and Boris is insanely energetic. We have started dog scootering and Annabelle has decided she is the lead dog! Excellent...

Quick vid of the dogs scootering. Click HD on the bottom right corner if your PC supports it! Mine doesn't!

I let ours pull me on my rollerblades... I've been skating since 1990.  I'm actually damn good, could do tricks and half pipes.  I can stop like I'm on ice skates (never had breaks on mine).  it's fun and great exercise for the dog.

Ellie would LOVE scootering!  However, if a rabbit or squirrel ran by I'd be screwed...

So here's a canine divine intervention story for you:

Been traveling for work last several days, not on the 'hood FB page to get the latest gossip.  Check it out this morning, see someone new posted that their 14 y/o terrier has been gone since Thursday (looks very similar to my little terrier squirt - and I'm a sucker for the seniors).

Later today, go out to run errands then do a 180 about 10 minutes into the drive to do an errand I'd been putting off in another area of town ("go....when are you going to have time during the week..?" I say to myself.).

Several miles later, and many miles from his home, I drive right up to that little man hunkered down underneath a car in a parking lot.

Took a while to get in touch w/the "mom" (she was going kennel to kennel at an area shelter and had her phone on silent). 

So weird but cool.          Too bad that divine canine intervention doesn't work more often.
