Our 1st Dryland mushing video

Elroy and myself have taken up dryland mushing a few months ago and we are both loving it. My fiance bought us an action camera which we dubbed Hell Cam (Elroy is often called Hell Boy by us). So at the weekend we stuck it on the handlebars of the scooter to film the action.

It's a bit wobbley but wonderful and shows that any dog can enjoy mushing, not just the nordic breeds.

Ah well. I was proud of him anyway.

awww go hell boy

loved his ears bobbing(dont get that with my lot lol)

...great choice of music too ... should be blaring as u go on big speakers lol

Thanks. I was getting paranoid after the vid was here for a week and noone had commented despite nearly 60 view.

You mush with your dogs then?

i forget to look in the vids

..... yes well,i used to alot with the sibes,i use a rig tho....saving up for a scooter and my csv's gonna get a sharp lesson in 'working' lol.

its great isnt it

..... sorry just a quick question.... what type of harness are you using?... is that a racing harness?

i still use the good old 'x back'

It's the Manmat Soft Universal harness. Cos Hell boy is small and the point of pulling is above, I didn't want pressure on his stomach, so went for this. I also use it attached to a bungee lead around my waist for walking. I find it works well for him.

Mushing is addictive isn't it? Hell Boy seems to love it just as much as I do and loves to get going.

I use the Pawtrekker scooter, I like the fact it has a brushbow on it to help prevent the line tangling with the wheel.

Do you canicross at all? I'm looking for recommendations for a belt. (Though I'll be walking/hiking more than running.)

Super video that boy of yours can go!

Thank you.
We went out last week with a fellow musher and her husky. He did so well, concentrated on his job and no trying to mess (which I thought he might do). She was well impressed at how well he pulls and just wants to keep going.

I'm careful though to end the session well before he's had enough and too tired in order to keep him keen.

Great video , can you explain to me please what is mushing and what does the scooter look like , looks like great for the doggies and owners , just wondering if my doggies could do it !
