Canicross is a mashup of the words “canine” and “cross country” and is a team sport consisting of a person and dog who run together. Typically the person wears a waist belt, the dog a specifically designed harness, and the two are joined by an elastic line that reduces shock to both the person and dog when the dog pulls. In the United States, Canicross (aka caniXC or caniX) is relatively unheard of. It is more prevalent in cooler climate areas where sled dog and mushing sports already exist but is slowly becoming more known. Canicross USA is here to help promote the sport throughout the US.
