    Weightpull

    Does anyone do it? Billy is 12 now but thinking of doing some light endurance pulling with him. Trying to increase his fitness a bit and it is something I have always wanted to give a try.

    Just curious if anyone else takes part in the sport?

    Not tried it myself, but seeing some of the vids the dogs do seem to enjoy it :)

    I think that's the key, that it's purely an enjoyable experience for the dog - use the correct harness, not too heavy on the weights, appropriate ground etc, and I think you'll be fine.

    Let us know how you get on!

    Yeah I will get a custom made WP harness if I decide to try it. Not going to do the heavy weight pull, just a pulling a light chain over a longer distance. I will put pictures and videos on if I decide to give it a go
