Impressive for sure, but did you notice at the beginning when he was "playing" with his dogs, he put each one of them on their sides in what Caesar would say his a "submissive posture"???
To me, clearly a pack leader, but definitely loved!

I did take notice of that.
Thanks for sharing this Sheltie Che. Quite impressive. Must be a sight to see in person. These dogs sure have a great balanced life.

it looked to me like belly rubs, done with smile and no serious content. But I don't know anything about the guy, except I am really impressed with the way his dogs are trained to deal with distractions. Barking other dogs, other bikes, cars and none of the even bothered!

I agree that they were "belly rubs" but he WAS pushing the dogs onto their sides.....just saying......I've seen Caesar do that too.

Just sayin' that I have seen Cesar kicking dogs, but others call it touching so they think it's okay... so just a matter of perception and what suits ones idealogy, I guess
According to my vet, bike riding with your dog is about as bad as tying him to the bumper of your car and driving while he runs along behind. The reason being... dogs are built to "travel" long distances at a trotting pace, not running. To run for that long isn't good for your dog, but he'll keep going to the point of exhaustions because he wants to please you and keep up with you.
I think roller-blading is probably a better pace for a dog. (of course not the speed I roller blade it... which is only about as fast as one can go while sitting on their butt

My you tube caption says " Heini biking free running in town with his sled dogs". I think these dogs run a lot. I do not believe he is doing any kind of Cesar alpha roll on his dogs. I think he is just playing and giving belly rubs. He sure has their attention at all times. Probably goes with sled dog training. Love this video.
