Start inside.  Bring the bike down to the ground so that the dog can explore it.  Call it over to you. Explore the bike with the dog, giving it treats, possibly placing treats on the bike. Begin walking with the bike and encourage the dog to follow you. Your demeanor is important in establishing the bike as a fun toy for the dog. Praise your dog and pet him or to create a positive association. Repeat the last exercise on a walk outside with a leash. Begin to take your dog on progressively longer walks. Make sure that the dog does not get caught up in distractions and becomes accustomed to the movement of the bike. Occasionally jog or do a short sprint so that it becomes comfortable with a faster pace alongside the bike. Your dog should learn cues like “slow,” “stop,” “turn” and “leave it” to be able to cooperate on a bike ride. Give your dog treats when they successfully perform these tricks. When teaching your dog these cues, it is important to use your own unique phrases. Your dog will hear “slow” or “stop” often when you are not biking and this will confuse it. Using an unusual sound or word to signify these commands will ensure that your dog recognizes them.
