I never tie the dogs up while in the boat. I'd be worried about them getting tangled if we tipped, but mainly I just dont have a need. My older dog is not threat to jump out for any reason, and my little one just stays closer to me so I can control while she is still learning the ropes. |

Do you spend time in the yard with the dog and canoe first b4 hitting the water. Or do you just go for trial by water. Do you put a long lead on him and tie the other end to a thwart. |
