My dog has to go to my Mums for dog sitting when I'm at work.
She only lives about three miles away, but because he's a bit over excitable he can't be trusted to run alongside while I'm riding.
Can anyone recomend a dog trailer?
It would need to be quick to hitch up and un hitch as I'd want to take it off and leav it at Mums til I collected him. I'd also need it to be big - he's a labrador and wieghs about 30kg.
As wehe's only going to be in it for a few minutes, it doesn't matter about it being weather tight, but as he's very stupid, him not being able to jump out is quite important!!
The other thing is, is it a totally stupid idea, I've never cycled with a trailer - laden or otherwise, and 30kg dog + weight of trailer = alot of weight. Route to my Mums is fairly flat, so I wont have to lug it uphill. Any thoughts?
