- Jim and Bee show you several steps to teach you how to train your dog to be comfortable running next to you on the bicycle.
Walking on a loose leash is a prerequisite to be able to do this exercise. Refer to our videos on Proper Leash Behavior for additional tips and exercises:

Once your dog has learned to run with you we suggest you get a bike leash so you can keep both hands on the handlebars th-cam.com/video/c5Wz6P0824Q/w-d-xo.html
I've watched your bike leash video as well, both vids are great!
the best way to exercise any large dog
yes it is
Love how you broke this down into very easy steps and explain how to make the dog feel comfortable with the bike
glad it was helpful
Excellent video. Behaviour vs. Obedience .Brilliant.
Thank you!
Apollo does love to walk with Bee on the bike
yes
Great step-by-step instructions. thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Broken down into simple steps. thank you!
Glad you liked it!
I just found this thank you we start today!
have fun biking with your dog
Cute dog! ❤
He is, isn't he, and such a sweetheart too
I love to bike with my dog!
Apollo enjoys it too
So besides the calm voice you have while explaining, this is so helpful. With regards to pulling, my dog doesn’t pull on his normal walks, however he gets distracted by other dogs barking at him and I have to slightly correct him, he also gets nuts when seeing bunnies (pulled me in a bush when he’s seen one), so I’m freaked out to take him in on a bike ride because he might get distracted, how do u handle that? Thx to anyone with any tips ( my dog is a large breed and is not friendly with other dogs)
Usually the bike cuts down on reactive behavior, because the dog has to pay attention to it. Be careful, it might be a good idea to use a bike aid to tie him to, rather then holding the leash, so you don't get yanked off the bike.
@@mcsdog and maybe a hand held clicker or something to make a sound to get your dog's attention back to you.
I'm getting a beautiful border collie soon. I'm going to have a lot on my hands. We have a very active lifestyle boating, hiking, beach, swimming, and always traveling can you make a video on what I would need to teach him for those things?
sounds like he will have a wonderful active live! Check out some videos on dog training tips. When he knows to trust you traveling will be no problem. We wrote a book on traveling with dogs" Keep Your Paws on the Road"
I bought x back harnesses and am wanting to teach my huskies to bike along for good exercise. They know heel but huskies are the most stubborn breed 🤦🏼♀️ and natural pullers species they are loose leash until they see another dog in their line of walking. I’m terrified they will start dragging me w my bike if some dog starts barking in front of us.
Harnesses are made for pulling - that is of course what your dogs are bred to do with sleds. You can switch to a neck collar and get a hands free set up for the bike. You also said "they" - we would not recommend more than one dog at a time
Your safety is very important
@@mcsdog thank you. I am getting started in bikejoring ( dry land mushing ) and bought their x back harnesses. Training one at a time and then taking both together to pull. Seems much more fitting for their needs.
Using a Bike Tow Leash is a much easier and more fun way to bike with your dog
great idea - thank you for the comment
I have a 4mth old puppy, german shepherd mix breed. At what age should I start this training? He still pulls on the leash
First he needs to lean to walk on the leash without pulling, also at 4m, his body isn't ready for demanding exercise like biking or hiking. I would wait until he is at least 8m to a year before you start the biking. But you can do basic obedience with him now.
Do I just hold onto his leash while where ridding or should I tie it to the bike
I personally like to hold it, but both will work
There are leash holders for bikes that attach to the bike
Can you use a gentle lead?
I would not recommend it. Harness would be better.
can it work for a chihuahua? my chihuahua is a mix, i think with a terrier im not sure but thats why they have ALOT of energy and they always pull so i wanna do this but i dont want to have them between the spokes
I have a Maltese/Lhasa apso and I’m doing this with him.
@@madervideosproductions.2525 let me know if it works plz
DragonSkaterrr I don’t have a chihuahua, but the breed I mentioned is also a toy breed. I only do it at a school parking lot, so I don’t go on heavy bike rides with him. It works, but I am very gentle because he’s a small dog.
DragonSkaterrr he’s just starting too.
DragonSkaterrr if you do it with your dog, make sure you have a harness attach and not a collar. Also practice doing it somewhere safe like a closed parking lot. Ride very slowly and build the dog’s stamina. Have the leash on both the dog’s left and right side. If the dog is slowing down and panting, than it’s time to stop.
When do I reward treats. Do I reward him at all with treats?
You can always treat train, but it's not necessary. Also depends on your dog and what type of reward works best. We find verbal praise works with most dogs, and of course, is always available, even when you ride a bike :)
@@mcsdog when I say good girl she always goes faster, why?
@@kedamono8616 Mine does the same thing. I think it's because they know that phrase means good things, and that you're happy with them, so they get excited.
@@renam2280 ooh makes sense. I thought she was just like "k mom got my praise. I'm outta here!"
Can I use a 20 ft retractable leash?
wouldn't recommend it - You want the dog next to you, not in front
@@mcsdog oh alright
@@mcsdog alright so I tried with a retractable leash and kept it short and she was doing perfect! I just started riding slowly and she got it instantly! Then she started pulling into the grass so I got further from it and she pooped on the road 😅
super dangerous to do it this way. if the dog lunges which they can you will go down. the Bike Tow Leash allows for lunging and will not pull you off the bike
thank you, this leash offers a bungee type section that allows the bike to remain steady even when the dog pulls. However, as we talk about in the video, it;s important that the dog knows to walk on a loose leash and does not pull before you bike with your pet
animal abuse. plain and simple. I can't believe people do this to animals. It's horrible.
So sorry you feel this way, our dogs have always loved to exercise with us in this and many other ways.
@@mcsdog It's abuse.
