One loyal dog from China is hopefully getting a pimped-out new ride thanks to a generous blogger who set up a fundraising site for the pooch, a Golden Retriever named Li Li, well-known in her hometown of Nanning for guarding and riding on the back of her owner's bike.

Jeff, an expat living in Bangkok, started the blog "Pimp My Seat" to share a video that his girlfriend took of Li Li, which garnered thousands of views as well as concern from users who thought the way Li Li currently has to ride is unsafe. Watch the video and you'll understand why.

Lots of people commenting on the story here and there on the web, but only about $70 raised so far. I kicked in a few $.

I hope Li Li gets something a little less precarious to ride on. What a great boy.

LiLi is SO ADORABLE and my heart just sank when I saw him get on that bike.
I wonder how much he has to raise to get the bike seat for him?
Thanks for posting this!!

Karen,

I don't really know the answer to that one. More than the $69 they'd raised. I read they're thinking of buying a 'cargo bike', which would be better for both Li Li and the guy doing the peddling.

Karen,

Another idea someone proposed was a 'bike trailer' like this one:

Tail Wagon® | Pet - Burley

I'd imagine they'll have to raise several hundred dollars .. shipping and all.
