bike harness on IMOTD with Chaos

I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the harness that allowed Chaos to run safely by his owners bike? I have 2 APBT and think they would love to do since we always walk and play.

I hadn't seen it on the show, but here's a quote from an unrelated thread. Hope it helps

Well, when I tried biking him with the regular leash, it didn't go very well. I actually use this product, which he took to on the first day. Now when he sees the bike he runs toward it and positions himself right where he needs to be to attach his collar.

good luck and let me know if it works for you. Like I said before, Molly's such a leaning little goober I'm worried we'll both end up at our respective "vets" offices needing patched up if I try it!

Just so you know, it seems that walkydog tool is selling out pretty well and is out of stock on a lot of sites. I had to buy mine from a random site I found by googling "walky dog", and unfortunately had to pay about $15 more. But it is WELL worth it. I bike Murphy to the dog park (2 miles each way) at least 4 times a week and he is tired and happy every time, and mellow even on days we don't go to the park and do a long walk instead.

I noticed they were sold out. I was going to try googling it. Thanks I hope it works well for my girl.
