It’s a ruff ride! The new dog-powered scooter that lets your pooch walk you

At first glance, it reminds you of an old motorcycle and side-car. But this pooch-powered scooter is being hailed as the the latest in dog walking technology.

Owners simply strap their dogs into a harness, which is attached at the side to a scooter. The human rider can put on the brakes and retains directional control, just in case an excitable dog decides to veer off in the wrong direction.

It was created by bored dog-walker Mark Schuette from Oregan, U.S. And his unique take on ‘walkies’ has already stirred plenty of interest

He added that the device suited most breeds, and could be used in all different locations, no matter the weather conditions or age of the rider.

‘Most healthy, confident, young and driven dogs get over the “fear” of being next to wheels and restricted side to side movement in one session – but some may be more spooked and then take repeated sessions,’ he said.
