Welcome to Dog Powered Scooter!

We are different here and unsatisfied with the traditional way we road work and mush our dogs. We want more safety, steering control over the dog and better dog control. We want the system to be user friendly, thus easy and quick to hook up the dog/dogs, we are not interested in lots of dog training, and we want to use the system right from our homes and not have to drive out of town. And we wanted a system that most every one can use. We've achieved these goals and more- dog powered mobility has become a practical reality.
 

We offer 4 products:  for prices see Sales page

      1  "Serious"  Dogpowered Scooter (of my design made in the USA) for pavement AND off road - best for multiple strong pulling dogs or one super strong pulling dog.

       2  "Recreational"  Dogpowered Scooter for pavement or mild off road-  for single dog and
ok for 2 average drive medium size dogs

       3  "Bolt on" Dog Pulling System for the recumbent "tadpole" (2 wheels in front) trikes

       4  "Custom Fit" Bolt-on Dog Pulling Systems for other brands and models of scooters

Appropriate dogs for these systems are:

- Young or middleaged dogs
- At least 35 lbs for single dogs and at least 18 lbs. each  for multiple dogs
- High Drive. Athletic, Runners, Pullers,  NOT RECOMMENDED FOR SPOOKY DOGS
- Reactive or even aggressive since the dog control is excellent but they can also run! 
- Dogs that cannot be let off leash
- Blind and or Deaf Dogs- finally they can go full blast !

Over 2000 sold since i started back in 2005, with no injuries to dog or rider reported ! 
 
 Caution: Urban dog mushing is a serious sport where safety for dog and rider is the first priority.   When starting out with a new dog, it is recommended you wear a helmet, gloves, and sturdy shoes.
Some dogs are spooked by the side to side restriction but most will "get it" in 1-3 sessions. AND you can prepare your dog early by hooking them up to things (like a kids wagon, an old tire, a concrete block or even a gallon jug of water), and under your supervision, pull that around the yard. 

Considerations: Rider/dog weight ratio, outdoor temperature, water availability and extent of time on hard surface, are just some of the factors to consider. See our Safety Page for more details.

Only conscientious and caring dog owners need apply.

These rigs are NOT the only way to exercise your dog/dogs, just one great way and part of the mix.
