I was wondering if a dog could be trained to ride in the rickshaw pulled behind the bike? I might take her on the Missouri Katy Trail for a bike camping trip.
Training a dog to stay in a trailer would be pretty easy.

You can train the dog to go it's "place", i.e. it's dog bed.

Once it consistently goes to its place, then staart putting it's place in the trailer.

Haven't put our Lab in a trailer, but she does fine in the kayak.
