I just ordered rollerskates to walk the dog (i will wear them not the dog... )
74 dollars for two pair outdoor old classic pacers ... old rink high top style.
Not a bad deal for two pair i think.
Purchased them here

Hope they both fit!
Anyways they look to have a super cool return policy and a 3-5 day delivery.
So looks like ill be falling on my keester by the weekend.

I picture myself being dragged down the road by my two dogs, with my wife in the background taking a YouTube film yelling ... great idea on the rollerkates hon!

I would hurt myself badly trying to skate in those. I can ice skate. Never learned to roller skate.

I can only use Inlines, but that is part of being younger
Hope everything works for ya Rod, I tried having dog pull me before, but I don't even need roller blades for that

I wouldn't even try that.

I used to ice skate and roller skate. Now I'm forbidden to do either. Just be careful out there!

The first time i tried my oldest sons inline skates i got to the bottom of the deck stairs and fell - last time i wore those needless to say.I used to roller skate a lot when i was younger.Hope i still got it!

You will not believe how many stores in town i went to looking for the older type of roller skates.No-one makes them with 4 wheels anymore.I talked to one clerk and i think he got confused.I even went to MC sporting Goods - no luck there either. This is the reason i decided to order on-line.
I actually could not believe i found this site.Pretty cool.

Awaiting the videos on failblog.org with baited breath How big are the dogs? The more traction, the funnier the result

Should have them by this weekend, and the video will probably be posted on my wifes Facebook page.I will let you know.
Zeus is the biggest of the 2, and he is about medium height but he is a strong runner.
KIKI <----- she is about the size of a small rat so she may be the one getting dragged along ...

Got a phone call today from the company where i ordered our skates.He told me they were out but he would substitute with these -

Same price, and he said they would be delivered before the weekend

So that works for me. Besides these look more durable to me anyways.

Between the quad wheels and the dog size, don't expect too much, unless your dogs take as much drugs as the whole Tour de France teams

Oh if my dog can not keep up then i guess he will be the one getting dragged.
I am not too worried.Zeus can pull me out of my chair when we play tug-o-war with his chew toy.

o.O that is a strong little dog, my Golden Retriever pulled my about 50 feet flat on my stomach across my yard when he was like 5 and I weighed like 120lbs...

I think my dog can pull anyone across the yard right now. We just got back from vacation and I swear she has put on 20 lbs! I can't imagine what my son in law has been feeding her.
