How many here have had a go?
We compete in canicross (running when pulled by a dog), bikejor (cycling while pulled by a dog) & dryland mushing (driving a team of dogs on a rig, which is like a sled on wheels). The dogs absolutely love it, it keeps them fit & content, & creates such a good bond because you are working as a team with your dog, not to mention how many new friends we've made over the years. I've placed a lot of rescue dogs into canisports homes too & it's great to see them leading active lives. We have 3 purebred GSP's, one GSPxGSDxDoberman, & an Alaskan husky, all who do all types of canisports.
A few photos of them in action (i'd add a video but not quite sure how):
