Song: Give Me Love
Artist: George Harrison
Today was Bandi's first ride in her doggie trailer...
as I towed her with me trike.
She was initially reluctant to get in...
but, I goaded her into it and attached her collar to an inside dog leash
which is attached to a D ring (one of two attached D rings in the carrier).
Bandi was unsure as to how the ride would go.
After a little while...
she felt more comfortable with the carrier.
We just took a short ride to sunset court (my name for it).
I had made the mistake of leaving the front wheel on the carrier (it is used when you wish to roll it around independent of a bike or trike hook up.
I took off the wheel and placed it inside the carrier.
The ride was much smoother without it on.

Although it was a mild pastel sunset...
our main goal today was doggie carrier familiarization.
As you can see...
the doggie carrier quick connects to a standard bike or trike connection stud
which is sturdily connected to a hard point on the axel housing.
The top of the carrier also unzips in the rear (for loading)...
and the top...
so dogs may look out from the top if desired.
Let's go home.
Aren't we going?
Okay...
let's go.
Bandi had a good time on this familiarization excursion.
As she gets more and more used to it...
she will soon look forward to getting inside...
as she will look forward to running alongside until she tires...
and then getting to ride in comfort afterwards.
There is also a thick doggie pad inside so Bandi may lie down.
As you can see...
there is plenty of room inside for her.
Almost every time I go out...
I will take Bandi on a run...
and then inside for a ride...
if she tires.
