Dog shows are intensely competitive events where dog owners and trainers seek any edge they can find. It should come as no surprise, then, that folding bikes are becoming a common training tool.

Often, show competitors travel long distances to participate in a major dog show. Since show judges prize dogs that are in peak physical form, making the most of the limited exercise time available off the stage is critical. For this reason, more competitors are pulling folding bikes out of their cars or rv's and using their bicycle to trot their dogs.
