Information and pricing for Peace Pups scooter lessons and outings:
Traveling with your canine companion? Consider trying a dog scooter lesson with Peace Pups. If your dog is energetic and likes to run it might just enjoy dog scootering. The first part of the lesson involves learning how to use the scooter with out a dog as well as commands, explanation of the equipment and basic dog training. Next we will fit your dog with the correct size harness, get you hooked up and working with your dog. Working along side one of our Siberian Huskies can be a big help in getting your dog on the right track. This is a great sport that you can take back home with you and do with your own dog. Our lessons allow you to try various scooters and decide if this sport is for you and your dog before investing in all of the equipment. We have scooters from Diggler, Kick Bike and Pawtrekker. Dog scootering requires no special trail, bike paths, back roads, and parks are perfect. Scootering is a great way to exercise yourself and your dog and a fantastic way for you to spend quality time together.
We are now the Vermont distributor for Pawtrekker dog scooters! Pawtrekker builds scooters specifically designed for working with dogs. We will be stocking harnesses from Mountain Ridge as well as dog scooter and skijor lines allowing you to be up and running the same day if you decide dog scootering is something you want to pursue.
Dog scooter outings Are available through out the no snow months. We will set you up with a scooter, helmets, your very own Siberian Husky (for the day..) and guide you down one of our local trails. During the summer months we need to avoid the heat of the day so these are only available in the morning or evening. You must be in good physical condition to participate since scootering does require that you assist the dog at times. Scooters require you to balance similar to riding a bicycle so some bicycle experience is highly recommended. This activity is not recommended for children under 10 as each person is responsible for their own dog. Our dogs are trained athletes and are much stronger than your average household dog. We do have some dogs which are smaller so we can adjust somewhat for different size people. As with the lessons; we provide all of the required equipment. All you need to have is the appropriate clothing and good shoes. No sandals or flip flops.
