Hank's first bike ride

***dogs4life*** · 08-31-2008, 01:36 PM

The family went on a leisurly bike ride and took Hank with us. Hank really enjoyed it and had a few fly snacks from the comfort of his backpack. He got lots of attention so I made Jeff take picts so I could see what he looked like.

Here's happy little Hank.

That is so cute, he looks so comfy in there!

Thats cute! You gave me an idea for Maggie. I'll have to wait until it cools off though as she gets overheated easily.

Awww x 1000!!

That is adorable! Did he try to jump out of the backpack at all?

Kendra,
I agree that Hank looks great in the shot with you. But why did you have to break his lil ear off to put him in the bag? Poor thing. Get it re-attached or maybe a prosthetic?

Upon closer inspection with the Zoom feature of Internet Explorer 7, his ear is flattened to his hed, which makes him even cuter looking for some reason

OMG, that is just too cute!

He looks like he had a very good time. Wish my dogs could fit in a backpack. LOL

too cute

Ahh! I love it!

Now I need to go buy a bike!

OMgosh that is so cute! How adorable!

Thanks everyone, thought you'd enjoy it.

Shmee - his ear is there, my little guy was not hurt in this expedition

Lindsey - Maggie might like a basket or front-mounted baby carrier. Here's a photo of the one I'd use for Hank...
Bicycle Safety for Kids - the safe-T-seat by iBert - Bike Safety Equipment

Erin - He didn't try to jump, he just chilled hanging his head out, smelling the air and looking at people. He did figure out how to unzip my bag by putting his paw up. He also was jumping inside the bag, not out just inside to catch bugs, so I think we'll have him in a basket so I can see him. Not being able to see him was making me nervous.
