Mushing

Definition

(Noun: A sport involving the use of a sled pulled by dogs.) Mushing is an activity that involves strapping yourself to a bunch of animals and hoping they don't take you off course.

Mushing looks like someone taking their pets for an extreme walk - with them as passengers instead of drivers!

I'm mushing my way through life one dog at a time!

Insight

Origin

The term 'mushing' was coined in 1892 after two brothers tried to ride their pet geese down a hill and ended up crashing into each other!
