We took her for her first ride today, she did really good. My wife has a pouch that she wears in front of her like a pack, the dogs legs and head sticks out but is pretty contained. Mindy seemed to really enjoy it, kept stretching her head out to the side to catch the wind. We only went down the street and back, but its a start.

Jake (see avatar) likes to ride stuffed down into his Mommy's jacket. He always wears his Doggles (see avatar) to protect his eyes.

Sounds like she's on her way to being a riding dog.. She's small enough that you could always keep her in a pouch...with a few stops along the way to exercise a little.

Jake's quite a cutie with the doggles. Did you have a hard time getting him to wear them?

Started him on the "Doggles" when he was a puppy. They have an elastic chin strap to help keep em on. He doesn't fight them too much, only after wearing them a while cause I guess he gets tired of them.
