We find that many dogs can ride for long stretches – often as long or longer than their rider. This is because the Cockpit allows them to remain in a comfortable, laying position. Also, when you tether them in securely with a slightly elastic strap – Rok Straps is our brand of choice – they can adjust from side to side during the ride for greater comfort.
Our German Shepherd Moxie can ride for up to 3 hours without a break. However, we prefer to stop for a break every 1 – 1 ½ hours for the Moxie’s comfort and ours.
