What is Canicross

Canicross is the sport of running off-road with your dog. You wear a waistbelt which attaches via a 2-metre bungee line to a padded dog harness. It is a good way to keep you and your dog fit whilst enjoying the great outdoors together. It provides a physical workout for your dog and the use of directional commands will help him to learn to use his brain and build up his confidence.
