Go Ruffly—an Off-Pavement Carrier for Your Dog

I stumbled on this while reading a post on Women ADV Riders Facebook page. The article from Jess Stone—about riding off-pavement with a dog on the back—drew my interest. But in reading her story, I was even more interested to learn Jess has started up a company called Go Ruffly, where she sells motorcycle dog carriers.

 

For a self-confessed, non-off-road lover, Jess has just upped the ante by carrying a 75-pound German Shepard on the back of her G650GS—wow!

In early 2022, Jess, and her dog, Moxie, will be traveling on two wheels around-the-world, where she and her German Shepard will surely be putting the Go Ruffly dog carriers to the test. I can’t wait to follow along.

What do you think of the Go Ruffly dog carrier? Have you ever ridden with a dog, and if not, would you consider it?
