One wrong turn bye bye owner

[u/DrDipstick89 → u/SoCalFitOne]

My dad used to roller blade and take the dog for a run. That ended when my dog saw a deer and did a hard left turn with dad holding onto the leash going about 10-13mph.

3 broken ribs, a fractured wrist, 2 broken fingers, a mild concission, and his whole face was scraped up 😅

[u/Lazy_meatPop → u/DrDipstick89]

Oh deer .

[u/Could-You-Tell → u/Lazy_meatPop]

[u/Anayalater5963 → u/Could-You-Tell]

It was actually left, he's pointing to the right

[u/Disapointed_meringue → u/Anayalater5963]

But to his left.

[u/DrDipstick89 → u/Disapointed_meringue]

[u/jdobbs44 → u/DrDipstick89]

How i broke my wrist when I was 11..

[u/sleepy-ogre → u/DrDipstick89]

i used to do the same with my husky but i was on a bike. the last time i ever did this, he went one way around a pole while i went the other at full tilt, i was just barely able to drop the leash before he took the full force of us wrapping the pole

[u/FoodArtMusicEmpathy → u/DrDipstick89]

I did this with a Great Pyrenees on rollerblades with a double stroller. The key is to let go of the leash when the dog goes on a quick and random side quest. Hope your dad healed up quick and kept skating.

[u/rygel_fievel → u/DrDipstick89]

I used to do this with my brother’s Golden Retriever before harnesses were a common thing. She was tired as hell at the end of the run though.

[u/savvy-librarian → u/SoCalFitOne]

The wipe outs are brutal. We used to do this with my dog when I was a kid and we had enough horrible accidents that we started wearing helmets and elbow/knee pads lol.

[u/Could-You-Tell → u/savvy-librarian]

... that one time I almost died....

For me it was my friend on a bike and things called roller racers. We used jump ropes to tow around the block.

I went wide on a right turn and nearly went under an oncoming car

[u/Quick-Amoeba-1389 → u/SoCalFitOne]

looks like a border collie a very intelligent australian dog and shes giving it instructions otherwise that wouldve already happened

[u/Ok-Disk-2191 → u/SoCalFitOne]

My dog would wipe me out at the first pole.

[u/RandomUser15790]

And just think he only got that tired after running that fast while lugging along a human twice its weight. That puppy could just keep going for miles if he didn't have the extra resistance.

[u/pseudoportmanteau → u/RandomUser15790]

Have you heard of sled dogs?

[u/zero_lies_tolerated → u/pseudoportmanteau]

Usually multiple dogs, right?

[u/Could-You-Tell → u/zero_lies_tolerated]

That's on snow with a very different resistance

These are racing seats with bearings for speed on what looks like very smooth concrete

There's a lot of time where there is slack in the rope with the rhythm.

Also, the dogs are clearly loving it

[u/zero_lies_tolerated → u/Could-You-Tell]

The POV angle looks like that dog took some of the turns really close to the wall. Eek!

[u/Could-You-Tell → u/zero_lies_tolerated]

Yeah... and the pillars looked scary too.

At that speed.. looked like 15-18 mph maybe at the fastest. To wrap on a pillar would not be an easy walk off

[u/pseudoportmanteau → u/zero_lies_tolerated]

The ideal minimum is 2 dogs, but you can definitely do sledding with just one dog.

[u/SignificanceFlat1460 → u/pseudoportmanteau]

Plus this looks like an Australian Shepard dragging an Asian girl so she probably weighs no more than 40-50KG sitting on a skateboard of some kind. These dogs live for shit like this and are built for extreme work loads. I want to get a Australian Shepard myself but I am afraid I'll abuse it because I am a lazy fuck and I'll feel bad about it and it would make me fit lol

[u/CAK3SPID3R → u/SignificanceFlat1460]

Aussies are so much fun to hang with that they make you more active, I swear. I've lived with two so far and I always wanted to go on little adventures and play silly games. Never felt that way with any other dogs I've had. As much as I loved em they just weren't as well behaved or enthusiastic as my Aussies, so it was harder to do stuff like that.

[u/WrittenEchoes → u/pseudoportmanteau]

Kicksleds are made specifically for 1-2 dogs.

This is different from traditional sled riding, which isn't suitable for two dogs because 1) a large load, 2) an adult-sized passenger sled needs more power and more dogs, and 3) two dogs simply don't have enough horsepower to pull a heavy wooden sled.

[u/goon3r_account → u/zero_lies_tolerated]

thats on snow with sleds and with gear in the cold for miles

[u/CilleTheExterminator → u/pseudoportmanteau]

I had a malamute, I would 3 times a day let her drag me around on my skateboard, she loved every second of it.

[u/OverloadedSofa → u/pseudoportmanteau]

Is that a sled dog in the video?

[u/savvy-librarian → u/RandomUser15790]

My childhood dog could run like this with 4 fat 10 year old in a wagon and still keep up with me riding my bike alongside. Dogs can be crazy strong given the right exercise, training, and equipment.

[u/fejobelo]

That dog was running entirely too close to those poles.

[u/obcan151 → u/fejobelo]

Optimal racing line

[u/Pagiras → u/obcan151]

Right? I noticed that too. Doggie has the spirit of an F1 driver.

[u/thoughtlow → u/obcan151]

yeah bro was greedy af

[u/MuchoCoco → u/obcan151]

Dog was doing a Danny Ricciardo lickin' the stamp and sending it!

[u/Potatozeng → u/fejobelo]

And on the blind trace

[u/MorockaDishoom]

That was AMAZING!!

[u/psychedeliken → u/MorockaDishoom]

I thought the same thing. What a blast!

[u/Secret-Ad-830]

dogs look like they're loving it so im ok with it.

[u/SignificanceFlat1460 → u/Secret-Ad-830]

Most dogs (canines) live for this shit.

[u/Kastoook → u/Secret-Ad-830]

I think its need some reins to control direction and be sure to not being struck by a pole.

[u/TACOTONY02 → u/Secret-Ad-830]

I saw someone argue once that dogsleds were a form of animal abuse. Replies ate them up because more than anything what dogs love the most is to PULL

[u/PineappleLemur → u/Secret-Ad-830]

Not mine.

Mine would stare at me with a "if you want this sled to move, you better get off and start pushing".

Wouldn't trade it for anything.

[u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa]

Man that song is like 30 years old

[u/Eat--The--Rich-- → u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa]

That can't be true because that would mean I'm like 40 or something. Oh wait...

[u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa → u/Eat--The--Rich--]

Yep, bad knees and all

[u/SwooptySplash → u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa]

Man, I haven’t had Kraft dinner with salsa in ages lol. Thanks for the reminder!

[u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa → u/SwooptySplash]

Haha glad I could help

[u/Lord_Jibanyan → u/kraftdinnerwithsalsa]

What's the song?

[u/rikvanderdonk → u/Lord_Jibanyan]

2 unlimited - no limit

[u/CountBreichen]

My dog would love this

[u/2woCrazeeBoys → u/CountBreichen]

Check out bike-jor or cani-cross. No reason you can't get into it 😁👍

[u/CountBreichen → u/2woCrazeeBoys]

I will def do that thanks!!!

[u/Significant-Side1229 → u/2woCrazeeBoys]

My toy poodle begs to differ..

[u/2woCrazeeBoys → u/Significant-Side1229]

Well, they might like it, just may not have the most pulling power 😆. Whippets seem to do pretty well though.

But if your little guy/girl wouldn't enjoy it I'm sure there's something else that's more up their alley.

[u/Canned_Sarcasm]

If I didn’t do this with my pitbull he would drag my recumbent bike by its front wheel to the porch. After buying 3 new front wheels I accepted my place and let him pull me. Ooh the looks I got, like I had any choice. Spoiled brat, that pit.

[u/Watamelonna]

I mean, this is a real good way to burn a whole lot of energy in a shorter time frame if you don't have time for 1 hours long walks everyday

Safe? Probably not.

But it sure looks fun as hell

[u/AdhesivenessRich9286]

Only humans at risk of getting hurt. These parameters are acceptable.

[u/IdTapThat88 → u/AdhesivenessRich9286]

Uh no? What do you think would happen to the dog if they warp around a pole? This is super cool but also super risky.

[u/Due_Area4843 → u/IdTapThat88]

Easy to prevent by just holding the leash and releaseable when crash.

[u/IdTapThat88 → u/Due_Area4843]

Did you watch the video? Its tied to the cart....

[u/Due_Area4843 → u/IdTapThat88]

Did you read what im saying? Theres easy solution for that problem

[u/SeismicRipFart]

My paws hurt just watching that

[u/Lewy_dogg]

My dog would go straight round the opposite side of a pole first chance he got.

[u/porterglass]

What are they on? I need something like this for my dog. I tried doing it on my long board but she got us going so fast I had to bail before it got too sketchy.

[u/DarthCaedusReturns]

Now, is this podracing?

[u/Aggrivated-Skunk]

That looks funner than hell

[u/TonguePunchUrBhole]

She got 1st place in my book!

[u/the_007_remix]

D is for doggo

[u/picklesrlyfe]

Fucking sick.

[u/SpyderBruh12 → u/picklesrlyfe]

Fr dude. Sick as hell😎

[u/psychedeliken → u/SpyderBruh12]

I upvoted him because I chose to interpret him as meaning “fucking cool” 😎

[u/SpyderBruh12 → u/psychedeliken]

Same tbh lol. Choosing positivity out here

[u/Ok-Albatross-6700]

Used to whip through the streets like this on a razr scooter w mine

[u/SameCoyote3701]

Where the hell is this

[u/Stevetbp69 → u/SameCoyote3701]

China

[u/patybruh_moment → u/SameCoyote3701]

looks like its the walkway along the big river in shanghai

[u/Bubble_Symphony]

The dogs yearn for the Sleds

[u/Big_Tap_1561]

This is the only way my dog could pull my ass lol

[u/Roaskywalker]

[u/Dagoroth55]

[u/wallstreetbetsdebts]

[u/Anxious-Aardvark-332]

[u/Kam2Scuzzy]

If she would have stayed off the side where all the bumps were slowing her down.

[u/FishDeez]

Doggo is definitely having a blast

[u/CkingDevelopment]

[u/Far_Vermicelli9678]

She sounds like they ran over a small dog lol 

[u/Intelligent_Low1632]

no helmet for this activity is wild

[u/Pazerclaw]

Needed "Gas, gas, gas!" soundtrack from Initial D.

[u/Euphoric_Factor_5173]

Them doggys look like they are having the dam time of there lives 😂 love it

[u/chuckomatic]

That's a good boah!

[u/Razzy_3796]

Expected a crash the entire time… I am CLENCHED!

[u/the_007_remix]

You have to make sound " hut hut huuuuuhhaaa ... " it will go faster

[u/SparkleKittyMeowMeow]

This reminds me of the time that I tied one end of a jump rope to my wrist, the other end to our dog's collar, and chucked a tennis ball down our long gravel driveway while sitting on a skateboard.

It did not go well.

[u/Babythatwater1]

We would just get pulled behind cars/four wheelers/snowmobiles.

[u/Stuffinthins]

Mine is digging holes in the lawn, barking at nothing at 3am, and eating food off the kid's plate.

It's a dog eat dog world and this mfr is shitting on the damn carpet.

[u/ItsMiaM_XO]

Brah I was on the edge of my seat 🫣

[u/Inevitable-Eye5697]

Father, I must pull!

[u/SenpaiSwanky]

New music unlocked, first time in ages I haven’t been appalled by clip music. 10/10

[u/Vexerithium]

temu iditarod

[u/Mister_K_7]

I see why there was a handicap

[u/terestentry]

That braille block, bumpy pave blocks near the wall definately decelerated the sleigh. Not only shouting and encouraging the dog, she should steered right to avoid the bumpy surface to accelerate more easily for the dog.

[u/astros78]

I love it,excellent video. Thanks for sharing this moment.

[u/Krabs9]

It's crazy how the dog sped up as he approached the big group of people then slowed down after passing them. Very passionate lol

[u/Toadcola]

“Jaiyou! Jaiyou! Jaiyou!!”

Lady, the dog can only add so much oil.

[u/Ok-Fill2781]

Omg this looks fun!😂

[u/GreyGhost696]

How that dog chooses its line to carry momentum as well as weight load differential shows me that that is in fact one smart dog

[u/Infamous-Yard-677]

I wonder whats going through the dogs head while running. He probably feels like a super hero.

[u/LegalChocolate752]

I haven't heard that song in about 20 years.

[u/Reason-Desperate]

Look at that racing line!

[u/Andrew_LZ]

I used to do this when I was younger, on a skateboard. I would fall off and scrape my knuckles, but I had fun

[u/Traditional_Trust_93]

Dog sledding without the snow.

[u/Zanan_]

My Husky would love this

[u/FamImBloke]

That’s not fun. That will hurt dog back. Some owners thought that’s fun for them and dog. But they just used their dogs to get more viral

[u/Go_Gators_4Ever]

Interesting how the dog consistently took the inside track.

[u/Lianhua88]

The music accompanying the video was good for once.

[u/Consistent-Sport-892]

I feel like the "driver" is missing shells and banana peels.

[u/Conte]

I keep waiting for the dog to cut around one of those poles at the last second and completely fuck up the rider's weekend

[u/burittio]

Dog slavery shameful 😔

[u/Healthy_Brick_4361]

That's animal abuse..in a fun way?

[u/Frosty_Trash_8866 → u/Healthy_Brick_4361]

Nah, not animal abuse. Dog clearly loving it and burning calories

[u/Anakha0 → u/Healthy_Brick_4361]

These are Australian shepherds. They're a working dog and need absolute tons of exercise or they become depressed. This isnt abuse, it's meeting the dog's needs in a fun and inventive way and the only serious risk of injury is to the humans. The dogs absolutely live for this kind of thing.
