Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pet products, and in particular to a dog walking vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and changes in lifestyles, pets are becoming increasingly important in the family. More and more people choose to keep pet dogs to accompany themselves and their families. Pet dogs need regular outdoor activities to maintain health and a good mental state. Dog walking has become an important activity in the daily life of pet owners. However, the traditional way of walking a dog mainly relies on the owner holding a leash and walking, which has some limitations.

[0003] Long-term walking for dogs is a difficult task for some pet owners who are in poor health, elderly or have difficulty in moving. They may not be able to provide their pet dogs with enough outdoor activity time and exercise. In addition, during the dog walking process, the pet dog may suddenly run fast due to excitement or external stimulation, and the owner may be pulled by the leash or even fall, which not only affects the dog walking experience, but may also cause physical harm to the owner. In addition, when the owner needs to carry some items (such as pet supplies, personal items, etc.), it will become more inconvenient to walk the dog with a leash. Summary of the invention
