The 'BuddyRider' has been designed to offer avid cyclists with a way to bring their furry friend with them when they're heading out on a ride around the block or an extended trip. Capable of carrying dogs up to 30 pounds in weight, the bike accessory securely straps your pooch in place in a seated position and will keep them fastened during the entire ride. This will come as welcome news for dog owners who are looking to get into the outdoors with their furry friend to explore in a more carefree manner.
The 'BuddyRider' acknowledges the growing popularity of pet products that further incorporate furry friends into the daily life of consumers in more unique ways.
