Has anyone seen or tried the Springer Bicycle Jogger?

Springer Bicycle Jogger

Instead of taking your dog for a walk, take him for a ride! The Springer's low mounted coil spring absorbs and reduces the dog's tugs and pulls, so you'll be able to maintain your balance. The dog is held gently yet firmly in place beside the bike, reducing the danger of his interfering with the pedals or wheels. And the Springer is equipped with a safety release that immediately breaks away should your dog end up on the wrong side of a post, hydrant or sign or tree. Includes complete mounting instructions and directions for use.

I've seen it and thought I'd try it for my big dogs... My pits would break right off the first time they saw "prey" so I doubt it'd work well with them at all...

Skijoring or Bikejoring would be good to do with the pits...they can pull you along...
