It worked pretty well except, being a small dog, he got tired quickly. When I was about ten, I used to ride a neighbor's dog. This wasn't too practical 'cause the dog was exceptionally stupid (as evidenced by the fact that he'd let someone ride on his back) and couldn't learn to go where I wanted him to. -- All characters mentioned herein are fictitious.
