What breed?

Not exactly sure... pitbull/beagle/tiny bit of pug, we think. He pulls me on a little scooter right now, but with this one I've fallen multiple times.

I do. I hate to admit this but...

I don't know how to ride a bike.

Those places seem a bit expensive for me right now, but I'll see where I'm at in a few months. I'd like to find one on CL if possible, but I probably won't find one :/

I would learn. Bikes are super nice to use if you don't have a mushing scooter. Mountain bikes are best

if all else fail, get the kick sled. I don't know how much snow you get, but at least you will have something to use when you do

What's the difference between a regular scooter and a mushing scooter? I'm looking on Amazon and seeing if there's anything I can use.

 

[Americano Blue]

what do you mean by regular scooter?

 

[Malibu99]

Like a normal kids' scooter.

I found this, would I be able to make this work if I could stabilize the front part?
