Default Ever brought a dog on your bike?

Chaz Dunlavy made the local news for tooling around Jacksonville, Florida with his dog. There's the video over here, but it won't embed in the forum. I've always thought it would be awesome to get a bike with a sidecar, and have the dog ride in that. But I've never considered any other way. Looks like this little dude likes it fine though...

If I could take my aussie, I would. That guy goes everywhere with me since he was 8 weeks old. Had full blown anxiety attacks if he doesn't see me for more than an hour haha.

I was at the blues and booze fest in Hot Springs back in 2016 and there was a dude with a pet racoon riding his shoulder on a moped allllll over town. Thing was having a blast.

I have seen quite a few dogs on bikes, last one was at a dealership last weekend. Never once did any of the dogs look anything other than happy and enjoying life.

I have been checking for a deal on a bike with a sidecar for a couple of years now so I can take my dog with me. She loves to go with me places. She has no issue wearing goggles. I passed on a Royal Enfield setup about 6 months ago that I should have bought. I don't need something for long cruises, just something to run up town and back. Eventually I will get a rig and she will love it.

We put our 10# "Peanut" in one of these (front facing). Whenever I put it on, she goes crazy in anticipation of what she knows is coming next. She seems to enjoy the ever changing sights, sounds, and smells of two wheel travel as much as we do.
