Dog scootering is an activity where one or more
dogs pull a human riding an unmotorized
kick scooter. It is similar to
mushing, which is done in the winter, but generally with fewer dogs and with a scooter instead of a
dogsled. The dogs wear the same
harnesses that sled dogs wear, and are hooked to the scooter with a gangline. The gangline usually incorporates a
bungee cord to smooth out the shocks of speeding up and takeoff.
