Regarding the Bike Tow Leash - "I just wanted to let you know I love this product. So much I have posted it on my facebook site and sent a link to your site for a friend of mine who has a dog that needs exercise.

I have a 7 month old German Shorthaired Pointer who by nature needs a lot of exercise. I dislike running but love biking so I had to give this a try! I am not a biker in spandex, but your normal trail rider.

So I purchased this and I must say it is wonderful! I finally have someone to go biking with me and her schedule always works with mine!! She does just wonderful with it. I do use a harness on her and not her collar.

Do not hesitate to purchase this product! It is so easy to install on the bike! It is not at all unstable if the dog pulls! I cannot say enough good things about this product." - Shannon

"I've been meaning to send you a message and let you know that we had a fabulous vacation with our dog on Mackinac Island in Michigan this summer. The walky dog was great. You were right' our lab was hooked on the walky dog with it's first use. He had more fun than the kids on vacation. You may be getting some business... everywhere we rode people were commenting and asking questions about the walky dog.

Thanks again for the great product and super fast delivery." - Amy

"Scott and Jenny, I just wanted to let you know how awesome your website is, I really appreciated the time and dedication you have put into the product videos as they really helped me choose the WalkyDog. We have a Siberian Husky (6 months old) that loves to run... and run... and run... and run... and.... well you get the point! He was no longer satisfied with our "walks" and I started using my bike and a standard leash to walk him out of desperation. For about a month we walked him this way, and after a couple of "close calls" I found your website, saw the videos, and ordered the WalkyDog. We've only been using it for about a week now and he LOVES it! Your videos were key in showing me the capabilities of the product and how it could be configured differently for different scenarios. Excellent job!"

Thanks! Paul

"Excellent product. I have tendonitis which makes it painful to hold a leash and ride the bike at the same time not to mention dangerous. My dog loves to run and a regular walks are not enough. We both LOVE this product. Thank You" - vetta

"Hello! We recently purchased the walky dog, a harness, and the mongrel leash, plus the bungee extension from your site. My husband and I are so impressed with these products that we just had to write and say thank you. If it weren't for your videos showing the walky dog in action, we most likely would not have sprung for the purchase. Seriously, this has saved our relationship with our dog. We adopted our dog about two months ago, and though she was very calm at the shelter, she is actually incredible high energy. She also has a mega tuned in hunting nose and loved to dart off and go crazy over any form of wild life. We were exercising her twice a day, but the walks and jogs just didn't cut it for her. I tried biking her with a regular leash, but she would dart off after squirrels or birds and either cause us to almost crash, or run right under my tire. Both of which were not acceptable. Now with the walky dog, I can easily bike her safely and she loves it. She can run, run, run. (I know it says not to, but I also pull my two yr old in the trailer behind my bike and he loves to cheer her on as she runs.) She is one happy dog, and we are now happy dog owners. The mongrel leash is also perfect to keep her right at my side on walks and the bungee extension allows her some space when I don't need her right close. Plus, the bungee saves my shoulder from ripping out of its socket whenever she picks up the scent of a tiny critter. I am no longer frustrated every time we leave the house with her. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Sincerely, Shannon

"When I first bought my walky dog, it sat in my garage for a couple months. I was nervous to use it because both my dogs ( a terrier mix and a boxer) are heavy pullers. Last week I started using the walky dog with great success. I do about a mile and a half with each dog daily and we all love it! It tires the dogs out, we get fresh air, and it's not too much work for me. I work 1 hour shifts on my feet so the last thing I want to do when I get home is walk. We love it. Gonna get a few for Christmas presents for friends this year." Brittany

"I am 64 years young and recently purchased an adult tricycle with the dream of getting some exercise and including my 2 year old boxer puppy, as distance walking is not easy for me.

Off we went on the bike but unfortunately Willow is full of energy and wants to go see every dog we come across and loves to chase cats. Needless to say I could not handle her without placing my dog or myself in harms way. I was so disappointed!

You can imagine how thrilled I was to hear that there was such a thing as a bike leash. I studied all The Dog Outdoors videos over and over again to see if the Walky Dog leash could work with a tricycle and decided there was only one way to find out.

The delivery was very fast and Scott answered my questions quickly. He was honest and said he was not sure if it would be safe for my dog as he had not personally tested the Walky Dog leash with an adult tricycle.

I was delighted to share with him that by removing two of the springs from the leash batton (which took 1 minute), it was perfect for our safety. Actually much safer for me than walking because the bungee cord allows the dog freedom of movement but has a firm way of not allowing her to take off on me or pull me over.

The price point is excellent for such a well made product and I would recommend it to anyone who has a bike and would love to be able to safely take their dog with them when bike riding.

A BIG thank you to The Dog Outdoors from a very happy Canadian customer." - Lindy

"Scott, Thank you especially for your videos that helped me decide that I actually could install and use the Walky Dog leash correctly.

I was a little dubious about the dog part of the trio though, because although I can ride a bike and I was able to install the Walky Dog bike leash correctly, I was not sure how my 67-pound, 11-month-old, stubborn, male Goldendoodle was going to take to the idea.

Watson was a little unsure but he completed a one-third mile loop around the neighborhood well! It went perfectly! In many ways, I wish I'd done this long time ago when I first found that there was such a rig. However, I am happy that I waited so that I bought it from The Dog Outdoors, a company and Web site that I feel confident buying items from with all the great video instructions and examples of how the items actually work with the dogs!

PLUS I bought one of the Canny No Pull Collars -- and wish that I'd found this 10 months ago -- it would have saved my $800 in trainer fees! Watson is still not totally happy about it after two days and numerous walks, but he is getting the idea that the battle/war is actually over.

Thank you for all the effort you have put into your Web site and for offering quality products that actually work! Sincerely - Cynthia"

"I just wanted to say thank you. Recieved the walkydog yesterday, and have taken both dogs for a run with it. Worked great for dogs of multiple sizes (one dog is a lab mix pup about 10 months old and the other is a border collie/ sheltie at 8 years old.) I loved the control that the walkydog attached to the bike gives vs a leash in my hand. Thank you, and looking forward to do more business with you." - Nikki

"Dear Scott & Jenny, I received the WalkyDog and EzyDog Harness yesterday and just wanted to say THANK YOU!

I've been out with our high-energy (she truly never stops moving!) lab three times since yesterday evening and I think she might have met her match! She pulls to the side a bit more than I would like to see, but I am hoping that with a little practice she'll stop. The pulling aside, for the first time in five years she is actually tired when we come in from our walk. This afternoon she just walked inside and went straight to her bed and literally hasn't moved since!: :) Tired and happy dog = very satisfied customer!

I also tried it with our giant Great Dane this afternoon. I knew he wouldn't go for long, if at all, but thought it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot. To my surprise, he took to it very well and didn't pull at all (a nice break from the pulling with the lab)! He went a few blocks and back and was pretty tired from just that short ride, but it was a great experience and it's fantastic to know I have an easy, safe and enjoyable method of getting the dogs exercised.

Thank you for providing a place where we can get reliable information from someone who has actually tried the products. I'm so glad to have found your website and to be supporting a small business!" - Katie

"Hi Scott

Thanks for the prompt shipment of this wonderful tool. After taking our Shetland Sheepdog out just once, we are so happy we purchased the Walky Dog bike leash. It was nerve-wracking to ride with her on a hand-held leash and now my concentration is not divided between balancing myself and keeping my dog in check. The Walky-Dog allows her to run safely beside the bike while I navigate along roads and trails.

It is easy to adapt and install. After about 10 min, I had removed the two springs and had the clasp attached to my bike, ready to go! Wow!

Thanks again" Kathy

"Hello, Had a great time with the WalkyDog last night (first night) my dog had a blast and it was a great change of pace from running! Thank you again! -joshua"

"Hi Scott, Thank you so much for sending Lilly a new harness! We use the Walkie Dog almost daily and it has been so much fun! You have a fantastic product (and customer service) and I will continue to highly recommend your website to friends and family!

Sincerely," Allison

"LOVE the Walkydog! When my boxer mix, Shelby sees her harness, she knows she's going for a bike ride! I also ordered the waterbottle for Shelby, so that she has water for her ride. We go about 1/2 hour almost everyday. It's the one time she gets to pull and not be corrected! Also got the leash that straps across the body, haven't used it yet, but plan on it during the REALLY cold days. Laura C"

"I received the WalkyDog on Tuesday and 10 minutes later had Shelby running along side me. She usually goes into Super Stealth Squirrel mode when we are walking but with the WalkyDog, she has NO CHANCE! All she needs is about 15 to 20 minutes on the bike and she is a little tuckered out. I love it and most of all Shelby loves it. Thank you. - Laura"

"Hello Jenny and Scott, My husband and I have been using our WalkyDog bike leashes every day for the past week and a half and can't tell you how much we LOVE them. Our Siberians are running really well with them and we are all having them best time cruising around Big Bear Lake with them. We will send you some photos and hopefully a little video if we get around to it. Anyway, we couldn't be more pleased with our purchase and we are trying to spread the word to the folks up here to get you some more business." Thanks. -Adrianna

"Here is my review after receiving your WalkyDog bike leash. I would be happy if you would add it to the list of satisfied customers.

I just got the WalkyDog today and put it on my bike in 10 minutes. I had to adjust the distance of the clamp from the bike seat in order to accommodate my dog's height. I then hooked my hound mix to the Walky Dog and walked the bike and dog down the road for a short distance to get her used to being attached to something other than a leash. My dog was a little skittish at first, but once I actually got on the bike and started pedaling, she calmed right down and started walking. We went a little faster until she started to run, and both transitions were very smooth. The fact that I could take my dog for a run with the Walky Dog successfully, only minutes after hooking her up to it says a great deal about the stability and safety of the product. I was totally amazed. You need to go on short rides until you get used to how much and when your dog is likely to pull and be on guard for that, but once you understand the vigilance required you will be set to go. I felt very much in control, and I could tell she enjoyed the kind of exercise she was getting. You need to be prepared for possible distractions. I feel I must remain vigilant at all times and make sure I am sharing this exercise experience with my dog and not just riding mindlessly along.

Namaste, Tiffany"

"I wanted to drop you a line and say i received my order today . I attached the pole to the bike seat in like 3 min and hooked my dog to it. I walked him once down the street jumped on and started peddling away. Wow the dog followed along like he was made to do it. I just found this dog about a week ago a 300 dollar trip to the vet and several baths later and he is good as new. This is a full grown German Shepard with absolutely no training what soever. he does not even walk on a leash. but this product works . I am so impressed i had to email you and thank you for a great product. I live in Arlington Texas if anyone ever wants to see this thing in action have them contact me and i would be happy to let them check it out. thank you for a great product that really does what is says it does.

"the WalkyDog did great for a 2.5 mile road jaunt from trail end to trail head for 2 dogs. Jane's owner forgot her leash so I used JD's short lead in conjunction with the WalkyDog. Worked perfectly. I was leary that it'd spin the leash on the seatpost with 2 dogs pulling, but it didn't budge. Amazing.

Several active dog friends were excited about both products. Hopefully word will spread.

Best,

Thad"

"Hi Scott!

Just wanted to say a big thanks for sending me the WalkyDog. I just got it the day before yesterday....tried it yesterday afternoon. Works great! Thanks so very much! I get comments from people about how "cool" my dog leash is. :-)

Thanks and have a great weekend! Jeannie"

"I purchased a pair of these (1 dogs, 2 bikes, 2 riders) and first time out it earned its purchase price. Best thing ever! My whippets love it. They get their people *and* run, their two favorite things.

"Hi. I just wanted to say how happy I am to have found your website. I ordered the Walky dog and several accessories and cannot wait to get them. I’ve taken my dog for bike rides before just using a regular leash and have never felt completely safe. My dog would constantly pull me and dart back and forth in front of me causing me to freak out and brake hard. This product looks phenomenal and, once again cannot wait for it to arrive. Thanks for all of the videos showing how your products work. Your enthusiasm and clear and precise instructions really sold me on purchasing everything I did. Thanks again and have a great day, Rob

"Just wanted to let you know how much we love the Walky Dog. I was worried that 50 lbs of golden would pull me right over but it was as easy as you said. From the first day we tried it, we've really enjoyed it. Great product!

Stan Concord, NH"

"Scott,

I received the Walkydog leash, and have been using it for two weeks. It works great. It is much safer than tying the leash to the seat. Thanks, Gregg"

"Hello,

I bought the walky dog a few months ago and since I've been having the most fun in the world!! Biking my dog to work might just be more fun than sex! J/k but really, I love it! -Audrey"

"I appreciated all the videos on the website to help me chose the best product for my dog's needs. I placed the order on Saturday and the products arrived on Tueday. The Walky Dog was very easy to install and we put it to use immediately and are very happy with the products."

"It's finally beautiful outside here in New England. I tuned up my old 5-speed bike today and installed the Walky-Dog I bought from you recently, and put the padded-chest harness on our rescue pittie, Yogi. I have desperately needed a way to get him enough exercise, as I don't have room in our house for a treadmill, and he is very energetic.

WONDERFUL! We both love it. Yogi was truly smiling as he trotted and cantered alongside me all around the neighborhood. The spring mechanism served us well when he momentarily got distracted by some kids on skateboards and tried to pull sideways; I was able to correct him ("THIS way") and all was well.

Thanks for offering this great product. I've just posted it on my Facebook news feed so all my fellow dog-loving friends will know about it.

"Quality of the walky dog & harness purchased is exceptional. Products arrived sooner than expected and in perfect condition. Website was easy to use and full of useful information. Nice to see quality merchandise at reasonable prices."

"The walky dog couldn't have worked out any better. Took the dog for a run with the new leash and he fell right into place. On walks this is the perfect training tool to keep him right next to me. I have recommended this to all my friends."

"Hi!!!! I just wanted to e-mail you back to say thank you for such speedy service! I got my Walky Dog and low rider attachment last night and after a few minutes my dog, Buster Brown, was running alongside me with no problem. I can already tell the Walky Dog is a lifesaver! Poor Buster has so much energy I just couldn't walk him enough. I was so please with my order I have convinced my boss, Marc, to buy one for his dog too! I think I found the perfect Christmas gift for my parents and their Great Pyrenees!

Have a wonderful day! Amber"

"I was very surprised and happy with how fast my order arrived on my doorstep. I was, also, delighted to see a couple of treats had been put in the walkydog box. Both my dogs enjoyed those very much. I am so happy to see the The Dog Outdoors really cares about its customers and takes the time for excellent service. Thanks so much The Dog Outdoors!! - Kelly"

"I just got the WalkyDog today about 6pm. I hooked it up, and took my old English sheep dog out for a bike ride- he LOVED IT! I couldn't believe how well he responded to it. You know with a dog this size and a two year old daughter, there is just not enough time or way I can properly exercise him to the full extent he really needs. NOT ANY MORE! The treat was really sweet, good luck with your business I will defiantly be a returning customer. Already had a few people ask about it.. so I am sending business your way! Thank you so much!" - Misty

"Wow..Nobody in my family believed that my Australian Shepard Jack could be contained by anything and was sure I was going to kill myself it I tried to ride my bike with him. This attachment worked perfectly from the 1st first try with no training. My dog is crazy and has more energy than any other pet or human I have ever met. We take him to the dog park and he never tires. This is the only things that has ever worn him out. It's a miracle..Thank you!!" - Carly

"Scott, my name is Clint Collick and I found the "Walky Dog" on line while doing an Internet search for just such a product. While initially skeptical, I read the reviews and thought "for the price what the heck." We have two dogs as you know from my wife's correspondence. One is a Husky/Shepard mix at about 60+ lbs. He is mostly a placid dog but a strong puller. The other is a Border Collie mix at about 45lbs and while not as strong she is a very nervous dog who is skittish. The Husky took to the leash immediately and while on a ride saw some other dogs and tried to pull that way. Nothing doing; he immediately came back to the bike and carried on trotting along side. The Border was initially nervous but within a couple of blocks she too ran well along side with absolutely NO problems. I only needed to remove one spring to get the right length for her height. So, one "walky Dog" that serves two dogs with a minimum of work to change the leash length, very well made, no problems with a strong pulling dog, complete control and we all love it. May have to get another for my wife to use. Great product which works as advertised and worth every penny. Quick service too. Thanks so much." - Clint

"Best on the market, I’ve tried others but nothing beats the walkydog. It’s great for active dogs, especially the sporting breeds. Rob"

"Scott & Jenny, attached is a photo of our first trail run with the Walky Dog leash. Grady & I love it! Thanks for your excellent service. Charles"

"I just wanted to thank you again. I received the clamp. . . . and the dog treat! You're service is the best. And Hunter (my dog) appreciates the exercise... I appreciate the shorter walks since it is getting colder. Take care!" - Nicole

"We love the Walky Dog. In fact, we got two of our daughters each one for their dogs. The dogs go crazy when they see us get out the bikes. We LOVE it! Thanks so much for your time. I think I will purchase the bike tow after the first of the year once I adopt a new pup. Thanks again!!"

"I hope you got my feedback on your website. I hope you make a million bucks because that contraption is awesome!" - Stacey

"I just received the new leash. Again, Thanks for your great customer care. I would like to give a feed back and let other consumer know how great customer care you did but, I could not find the rating service about your company. I would like to give 10 stars instead 5 stars. I can not wait to ride a bicycle with my dog. (still have few more months to wait) Thanks and have a great fall and winter. Best wishes"

"I got my walkydog a couple of weeks ago. I was a little worried about how my dog would like it and how it would work in New York City! No problems on either front. First of all, my dog loves running A LOT, and it is so safe to use. We have lots of great places to ride that are car free so all is well. Your videos really helped me make a decision and I knew what to expect when I started out with him. Great advice and direction. I did have to tighten my seat post as he is quite the puller:) Thanks a bunch" - Brian

"My one year old Labrador Chance and I absolutely love the WalkyDog. Chance just loves pulling me around the neighborhood. Great product. The EzyDog Padded Dog Harness is great when used with the WalkyDog. Now I'm looking at the flotation device and Cujo Bungee Leash! Keep up the good work guys!" -Landry

"Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for our Walky Dog leash and harness. It came today and my husband and I were excited to see Marley's reaction. She LOVES it!!!! We briefly tried holding her on a loose lead while biking and realized how dangerous that could be, so this is just what we've been looking for. Instalation was so easy! In minutes we were out turning heads and getting lots of smiles from our neighbors. I was taking it slow at first but Marley caught on very quickly and when I looked over at her, she wasn't lagging but pulling me to go faster. I'm sure Marley wants to say thanks too! Wonderful products and fast delivery....you guys are great!" - Rich and Donna

"I was walking my very active Wheaten Terrier, Dugan, after my husband went over the handlebars on his bike and broke his wrist. No, he didnt have the dog with him, that time. Dugan is 10 months old and we picked him up from the pound about 3 months ago. My husband figured out how to "run" him on the bike with a leash, but wouldnt let me even try! I got a new hip about a year ago, and can no longer run like I used to, and now bike for exercise, and this very active puppy needed more than a walk. So while my husband was recouperating, I was relegated to walking Dugan. 1 & 1/2 hrs wasnt even putting a dent in him. Beautiful weather here in Nebraska, but wow, alot of time, and he wasnt even panting. I had a lady pass us on her bike with her dog in tow! I stopped her, asked her what the heck, and she was more than happy to tell me where to find a Walky Dog! Got it UPSd yesterday, and yes, had it attached to my bike in about 5 minutes. I would always ride beside the 2 boys but never could "run" Dugan myself. He thinks its pretty cool that I now can "run" him too! I feel very safe and secure for the both of us, and that confidence travels right down thru the Walky Dog, and allows us both a very enjoyable ride. I could swear Dugan was smiling when we got home! A very happy, very energy depleted, very tired, and well spent little guy. So thank you for your product. I now find myself yelling out the car windows as I pass another bike/leash combo to check out your website! I get alot of "Thank You's". So heres hoping business goes your way!" Sincerely, -Madeleine

"Thank you for the quick response. We used the WalkyDog this evening and our dog loved it and so did we. Thanks again" -Diana

"I just received my Walky Dog today. After 2 minutes to install it on my bike I went outside with my dog and in 5 minutes we were going up and down the block. He has never run with the bike and is pretty much afraid of everything. Every time we go out for a walk his tail is buried between his legs and he is terrified of cars, strangers, other dogs etc. For the first time in 3 1/2 years he was running down the street next to me with his tail out and a big doggy grin on his face. Words cannot express how excited both Finnegan(the dog) and I are with the Walky Dog!! This is going to get a lot of mileage! Thank you so much for this wonderful product and the great videos on your web site - I was scared that he was going to pull me over but the videos were very reassuring. Thanks again," - Erin and Finn.

"Hi Scott & Jenny, It works with 2 dogs. I've got two big dogs, a shepherd mix and a rottie mix and I have serious back problems that prevent me from walking them. These bike leashes have opened up a whole new world of exercise for me and them. It's so great to see them on either side of me, running and enjoying themselves! My friends can't believe it; but it's true! Thank you!" - Denise

"Thank you for the great service! I use the walkydog on a folding bike and it works great! Warmest regards and belated, but heartiest, congratulations to you and Scott on your little daughter!" - Tina

"I wanted to tell your company how much we love the WalkyDog. Our dog, Wishbone, is a runner who simply cannot get enough exercise through simply jogging with us. With the WalkyDog he can finally settle into a good gallop for miles. Keeping up with Wishbone, so that he's not pulling but instead just enjoying the run, allows us to enjoy exercising as well. The extra clamp for a second bike is brilliant. Thank you for a well-designed product" - Marion, Kevin, and Wishbone

One of our customers decided to use the WalkyDog with his scooter. He made an excellent video showing it in use. See below :)



Some of our customers have tried the WalkyDog with their trikes. Some have even sent us pictures...
