If you have dog(s) and enjoy cross-country or Nordic skiing, you're going to love this. Skijoring is a Scandinavian snow sport that lets you harness your dogs and have them pull you through the snow while you're on cross-country skis.
Think dog sledding but minus the sled. Depending on how strong your dogs are, it would probably be a pretty good workout, too (definitely for the dogs). From the looks of it you still have to do some skiing yourself, but the dogs definitely provide momentum. Check it out...
While we don't carry skijoring harnesses at Sierra Trading Post, (yet) we do carry everything else you need to get outfitted for the sport. Why not try something new this winter and let your dogs join in on your next cross-country ski trip?
