Is there a good way to take your dog for a ride on your scoot with you? I have a min Schnauser that weighs less than 20lbs. I have seen motorcycle riders strap some carpet to their gas tank and their dog rides on it.

Maybe try one of those baby carriers that you strap around your neck and moddify it a little,,or build a rack with a basket for him,,just make sure he wont jump out,,cause he will be road pizza  |

  I put a pillow in a plastic milk crate and then use quality bungy cords to strap it on the back seat. I also have a little snap hook attached to it so I can snap it to my dogs collar. He loves to ride and doesn't try to jump out, just use that for safety. I actually have 3 Yorkies and two love to ride the other one isn't crazy about it. JR |

OMG buford, she is totally adorable!!
Like jersey said, it is about trust. Can you trust your dog to not turn stupid and jump off/out if he sees a squirrel/rabbit/cat/other dog? Can you trust him to sit fairly quietly and not bounce around wanting to see everything everywhere? And can he trust you not to wipe out/go down and possibly injure him?

I'm not sure what the law is in Florida about having a animal on a motorcycle or scooter. I do know the local police would be all over someone that did it though. I have been pulled over because my small dog was in my lap looking out of the window. The officer told me that he pulled me over because of the safety issue it caused. I didn't get a ticket or anything and I laughed it off but only after he was going back to his car.

My fear is not that of a trust issue with the dog, it's the actions of other driver's, panic maneuvers, avoiding and driving safely can be hard enough on the scooterist let alone keeping a dog from flying off the scooter and into traffic during a panic stop or hard turn..
