I have the Springer contraption for my bike which was mentioned in one of the earlier posts. We have a Siberian Husky who loves to run and pull so it seemed like a great idea - the first few times. Our dog, Leia, does well on a leash. Off leash it's "make me!" - which is typical of huskies. Anyway, she did great with the Springer and was constantly aware of the bike and kept her distance, etc. Then one day a squirrel shot across the road in front of us - Leia forgot all about the bike, she chased, crashed into the front wheel, and we both splattered on the pavement suddenly and quickly.

Wildlife distractions can come up without warning anytime, so I don't use the Springer anymore. Maybe some breeds might do a little better, but this definitely isn't a good idea for a husky. -
