flyingspanner Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Recently there have been a fair few "Dog Scooters" for sale on eBay that are quite obviously not dog scooters Tiny wheels, long handlebars, someone even left feedback saying "not a dog scooter it is a kids bike cut in half re welded with a scateboard" Please beware when buying a scooter that it is actually fit for purpose, I'd hate to hear that someone has hurt either themselves or their dogs.

flyingspanner Posted September 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 It turns out, the person offering these "scooters" for sale is a member of this very forum. I urge you to stop before someone or their dogs get hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyka&Diva Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Can anyone recommend a decent place where i wont be paying over the odds for a scooter/trike so i can give my girls a good run (and have some fun myself) you could hold out for a second hand pawtrekker or just fork out for a new one which is worth its money if you get the use out of it. ive seen these and it disgusted me how dangerous the look this person needs to stop before someone is seriously hurt !!!

I've been looking on Ebay, just missed out on a Pawtrekker for £160+P&P, but New they're £250 so i'll probs go for that. My friend who has a Husky-Mute cross is looking online too so i'll warn him about the dodgy scooters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cherrie-Nanook-Indy Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 We got ours from Pete AKA [MENTION=2905]The Anarchistic Huskies[/MENTION] so you could always wait till he gets a new one and is selling one of his many thousand that he already has rofl Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Facebook there's a page called "mushers exchange" there've been quite a few pawtrekkers for sale on there recently and I saw the post about the dodgy scooters on there first. It's worth adding that one to your Facebook is you have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val (Zebedee) Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 It beggars belief what people will put to sell stuff - you have to be so careful with dog scooters for the safety aspect, any dodgy-made ones can only result in one thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
