A dog can easily keep its owner company if he wants to ride a bike.

However, it is important to take into account a few nuances so that cycling brings joy to everyone.

What breeds can you ride a bike with?

Let's start with the fact that not every dog breed can cope with physical activity of this kind. The following dogs feel most comfortable:

  • Australian Cattle Dogs;
  • border collie;
  • Labrador Retrievers;
  • Hungarian Vizslas;
  • Weimaraners.

The main condition is that the dog must be trained to follow commands, not to stray from the bike path and to stay as close to the owner as possible.

Before going on a long walk, be sure to consult a veterinarian. The specialist should give his opinion on the physical condition of the dog, which should be ready for such loads.
