Haha that is so cute! I bet they love it. Conan might try and jump out, but I bet my 15 year old spaniel would have a blast!

I just Googled that because I've never heard of it. That is so cool! I bet your dogs love it. I know Conan would. Thanks for the advice. We've decided that we might let Conan go on short sprints for a bit, but it's probably best to find other ways for him to get his energy out.

When you say you do the milk crate strategy to transport him to bikeable places, do you tether him to the bike when you get there? Or do you keep the crate situation? Sorry, I'm a bit slow today, haha.<br />
<br />
Conan loves to run just for the sake of running, and while he herds just about everything else that moves, he doesn't seem to want to herd us on our bikes. I was thinking about getting a Springer (<a href="http://www.springerusa.com">http://www.springerusa.com</a>). I am a member of a working…

I was thinking about getting a Springer (<a href="http://www.springerusa.com">http://www.springerusa.com</a>). I am a member of a working dog forum and a lot of people there seem to have good things to say. I'm not sure how small a dog can be to use one though.<br />
<br />
Mostly I am just concerned about a short legged, long backed dog being hurt by the stress of running on pavement. I know that there can be injuries to the foot pads, but the impact of running on such a hard ground is fairly hard on a dog's joints. But if your Corgi does it, then I think I will try it more with Conan.<br />

Corgis are little and they like to herd moving objects, which makes them suboptimal biking companions, at least on a I-bike-you-run basis. When we do want to bike with our Edison, we strap a milk crate to the back of a bike and then use a caribeaner to lock his harness to it. He is not terribly pleased with this arrangement ("Mommy's moving independently! And I can't herd her! Woe is me!") but it's a great way to transport him to fun, bikeable places.<br />

Speed is not the problem. We've clocked Edison doing a 3 minute mile. They turn into furry springs, like rabbits.
