In the video, the dog was fixed on the paragliding under the leadership of the owner, flying in the air, stunned, and laughing at many netizens. On September 29, a reporter from Xiaoxiang Morning News (xxcbbaooliao) contacted Zhengzhou, the owner of the border herder. He said that he is a paragliding coach. The dog is over 3 years old this year. He has grown up in this paragliding base since he was a child and has flown more than a dozen times. Netizens commented that this is a dog who has seen the world, and it is really a pity that the dog has lived.
Three-year-old puppy has experienced paragliding flights more than a dozen times, which makes netizens
According to Zhengzhou, this border collie dog is called Qilin, and he is 3 years old this year. Zhengzhou has been working at the Hei Mifeng Paragliding Base for three years, and Qilin has been growing up with him at the paragliding base. He accompanied him to work in the morning and get off work together in the evening. Around June 2021, Zhengzhou began to try to take it to experience paragliding. "I saw someone abroad who took his pet to experience paragliding, so I wanted to try it with Kirin, but I didn't have a belt that can fix the pet dogs specifically, so the previous few times were taken by other coaches, and then I held it. It was still calm when it first experienced it."
Recently, Zhengzhou customized a strap that specializes in fixing pet dogs on paragliding. On September 25, Zhengzhou took Kirin to experience paragliding for the first time. "I held it before, and it hung it in front of it for the first time, so it might be a little nervous and his eyes were wide open." On September 28, Zhengzhou took Kirin to experience paragliding for the second time alone for the second time. Kirin was obviously much relaxed, and while enjoying the high-altitude flight, he kept looking at the scenery under his feet.
Zhengzhou told reporters that Qilin has been watching others experience paragliding at the paragliding base for a long time, and after that, he also likes paragliding very much. Every time someone experiences it, it will chase after it when it is about to land.
Can pet dogs experience paragliding "depending on dogs"
Kirin experience paragliding video has attracted many netizens' attention, and netizens commented: "This is a dog who has seen the world!" "It is simply the peak of dog birth, and dog birth has no regrets!" Some netizens also raised questions, will pet dogs be afraid of heights? Are pet dogs allowed to experience paragliding?
For this kind of problem, the reporter consulted Deng Xuejian, professor of zoology at Hunan Normal University, who said that not all pet dogs are afraid of heights, and the feeling that paragliding brings to pet dogs is similar to the feeling of driving on the highway. To determine whether this pet dog can experience paragliding, you can see if it will be motion sickness when riding in a car. If the pet dog experiences physical discomfort, such as vomiting, when riding in a car or playing on a skateboard, it means that it is not suitable for paragliding.
reporter checked the " Paragliding Sports Management Measures " and found that there were no relevant regulations on carrying pet dogs to experience paragliding. However, according to Mr. Wu, a staff member of the paragliding base, the weights of paragliding of different sizes can be carried differently. If the owner is carrying a pet together, the total weight of the owner and the pet must be within the range of the weight that the paragliding can carry, and the owner must prepare the straps used by the pet to ensure the safety of the pet.
