Hi, great video he is doing a great job, my mini has just been trained to drive, i had a leather harness which broke very quickly got it of ebay, now i'm waiting on a nylon one coming. I see yours is nylon what do you think of it is it better. His trainer told me over check is cruel do you agree its seems to be fine on your mini

Thanks, Daisy is doing great, I can now drive her on the road. She does very well around traffic and bikes. About the harness, I love the nylon harness, and it wears very well. About over check, I dont mean to sound dumb, I dont know what you mean. please explain. But I do not do anything that would be cruel. Daisy responds from trust and Love. thank you again. If you need any training tip let me know....

Hi, thanks for replying to me. The over check is the bit that comes down the front of the face and attaches to bit. I am going to have to get Sparky my miniature used to to heavy traffic do you have any pointers you could give me in the safest way to do this? i think i worry more than he does he is quit a confident wee guy lol

Hi, I should have known that. I looked on the internet too and saw what it was. Yea, that can be cruel. Daisys is looser now, and sometimes I dont use it at all. Daisy can remove a halter and bridle faster than any horse I have ever had, and she has done it when she was in full harness. lol. I am going to get her a collar.

I would be glad to give you pointers on driving anytime. before you go out in traffic make sure he is compleatly comfortable with harness and cart.You will do fine!

Awwww! Your dog looks like he wouldn't mind a ride! My Aussie LOVED to ride on my mini mule card with me...the only problem was that he insisted on sitting in my lap most of the time...lol...but still fun!
