Taking a dog on training rides

[Lysane Cree <lysanec@yahoo.ca>]

I was just wondering if anyone brings a dog along with
them on their training rides? The reason I am asking
is because I do have to go on a few roads to get to
some of the trails and although the roads are
relatively quiet, I don't feel comfortable leaving my
dog loose. So what I was thinking of holding the dog
on a retractable leash with enough room to avoid being
trampled, but not long enough to get me in a tangle.
Think this is crazy or doable? Ponying a horse works,
but I am wondering if this would work with a dog since
they are much lower down.
E-mail me privately if this is not related enough to
endurance.
Thanks, 
Lysane
