ABSTRACT:
A modified scooter that has a frame with a low center portion. A rider stands on this center portion. A front wheel is mounted to a fork and has steering control as in the case of a normal scooter. Extending forward from the frame is a curved tow member. The curved tow member acts as a transfer bow. It is designed to fasten to a tow rope, which is then attached to a dog or dogs. The position and attachment point of the transfer bow are designed to transfer the pulling force to a point low on the center of gravity of the scooter. This keeps the scooter stable under all operating conditions. The scooter can be a hauling sled also. By lengthening the frame and adding additional wheels, the scooter can carry loads. The transfer bow can be attached to other types of wheeled vehicles as well to achieve similar results.
