Since Western Mass seems to now officially be in spring I'm trying to get the bike in working shape to go bikejoring again on the trails and getting Ryuk back in harness and conditioned up.
Ideally I'd like to train Gambit for bikejoring and he adjusted very quickly to pulling a light drag and is comfortable with "scary noise" behind him. With Ryuk it was a looong training process while I waited for him to get old enough to actually pull but I"m wondering if this is going to be as important with Gambit?
I'm wondering if I can hook Gambit to RYUK (not my bike) and Ryuk to the bike. Ryuk's not in bikejoring shape yet so it would be a mile or less trot on a soft trail. Gambit wouldn't be pulling but would get a crash course in the directional commands and speed control (and how to not stop at every tree). He already moves well next to Ryuk (they don't fight or bug each other even when they bump shoulders.
Would this be okay? Gambit's a year and three-ish months
and in other updates, trying to get updated pictures and videos on my computer by tommorrow of the pair of them teaching my housemate's dog how to interact politely
I don't have info on the age and work load or hands on experience with jouring yet, but I am also thinking of bikejoring.
I'm thinking you would need a Y lead to connect the 2 dogs then the line from your bike to the Y but I could be wrong.
I also have been searching for bikejoring equipment for the bike, harnesses, leads, etc but haven't found anything.
