WalkyDog® Plus Dog Bike Leash

Why Bike Your Dog?

Exercise is key to having a happy, healthy, well balanced dog. The sad truth is that most dog owners don't have the time or energy to satisfy their dog's exercise needs and as a result, many dogs are overweight. This may lead to medical issues down the road which could easily be avoided. Having the option to bike your dog in addition to normal exercise activities like walking, jogging, playing fetch, or taking your dog to the park, mixes things up and keeps the exercise routine fun and exciting. Biking is truly a fun activity for both you and your dog and many customers tell us their dog bolts for the door in excitement when they mention the "bike ride". Many dog owners can't keep up with their dogs when running or jogging them. Their dog may want to run faster or for longer distances than the owner can handle. Being able to safely bike your dog with the WalkyDog Plus allows you to exercise your dog on their level and in a fraction of the time. While next to the bike, many people report that their dog goes into an instinctive traveling mode and become more focused than on a normal walk because they can move at their desired pace.

Why Use A Dog Bike Leash?

While biking can be a fun activity for you and your dog, doing so without the right equipment can be extremely dangerous. Many customers find our products after attempting to bike their dog holding a normal leash. You might imagine the scary situations that can occur. For one thing, holding a leash while riding gives your dog far too much control over the bike. They can easily pull you off balance leading to a crash. Using a regular lead will also allow your dog to get too close to the front tire and possibly run in front of it. A normal leash doesn't offer any sort of pull absorption either. Using a dog bike leash like the WalkyDog Plus allows you to connect your dog to the bike while keeping both hands on the handle bars and in control. The internal springs absorb pulls from your dog and the rigid WalkyDog bar keeps your dog positioned in the safety area right next to the bike (not too far forward or too far back). This also allows you to keep an eye on your dog at all times. The WalkyDog Plus is quick to attach and easy to detach with the universal seatpost clamp and quick-lock release mechanism. You can have it on or off your bike in less than a second. It also can transition to a pull absorbing walking lead if desired when taken off the bike.

Why we love Walky Dog Plus Bike Leash:

• It's simple to install (with only two bolts) and most dogs take to it right away with little to no training needed.
• It's a great way to let your dog release energy - especially for dogs that are home alone all day. After all, a well exercised dog is happier, less destructive, and better behaved.
• Internal springs in the Walky Dog bar provide stretch and pull absorption if your dog should jerk away, making it easier to keep your balance.
• Unlike a normal leash, the WalkyDog keeps your dog positioned safely to the side of your bike and away from the front tire.
• You can quickly remove the bar for safe storage or switch it to another bike (spare jaw clamp required) due to the patented quick release.
• It's easily adjustable to work with dogs of different heights and sizes. The cord can even be replaced making this a product that can be made like new again even after years of use.
• The WalkyDog is just plain FUN!
