Tips for our Urban Mushers!
Summer is here everyone and Urban Mushing is the new pink! Some of you we have spoken to personally and others we haven't. We have a workshop dedicated just for Urban Mushing, so if your interested, drop us a line! Until then, here are a few things to look out for.

Breed:
Yes, the breed of your dog matters. Not every dog can be mushed (sadly). Dogs with Hypoglycemia, heart or joint issues, obese dogs and those prone to Collapsing Trachea and Brachycephalic Syndrome should consult a Veterinarian before attempting.

Speed:
Faster isn't always better. Migratory pace is ideal.

Tools:
Don't be discouraged if you don't the fancy stuff, neither do we! A regular 4 or 6 ft leash, looped through your belt or wrapped around your waste, should do it. Make sure it's not touching the ground or too taut.

For more tips and questions on Urban Mushing and/or our U.M. workshop, check out the Contact section of the page.

Merry Mushing!
