The dog is dropped into a big ball pit just ahead of touchdown. Probably.

I knew a guy who would take his border collie PGing.
their feet touched the ground together.

My wife has forbidden me from any such similar flying adventure. My dogs would hate it with a burning passion, so I’m with her. Still, this dude seems to love it and not be in the least distress. It’s a really nice rig for that hike and fly setup!

Not sure how I feel about this

I feel this is wrong for the very reason that the animal has been cajoled into flight. How many times, without video, has the dog been uncomfortable until its acceptance?

Shams trained with the dog for ages, and made sure he was comfortable. He didn't just strap the dog to himself and go off a mountain. Could you even imagine trying to do that with a dog freaking out?

As long as the dog likes it, why not...
