Weight pull is a fantasti sport for Pit Bulls to display their physical and mental strength. Before you get

involved you must make sure you know where to go, what instrumentation you will need and the training involved.

Let’s start out with Weight Pull Organizations

Two established organizations that hold weight pull events are the United Kennel Club and the International Weight Pull Association.

Both organizations offer quality events and have the experience to set up nice pulls with good turn outs. The IWPA is a weight pull specific institution and is widely ordinary amidst dog owners who are involved in weight pull.

The types of pulls you will encounter are:

1. Track pulls. These pulls use a track and wheel system. This

is where you will see massive amounts of weight being pulled.

2. Cart pull. These pulls use a wheeled cart and while the

weights are lower than track pulls they are still rather impressive.

3. Sled pulls. The most difficult of the pulls are sled pulls.

These pulls are kept on dirt or snow and use a sled to hold

the weights.

The UKC and IWPA largely use cart and sled pulls for the duration of their pull events. This requires your dog to have Superior strength and drive in order to with great success pull the weight.

How Weight Pulls Work

Your dog will be required to pull the weight 16 feet and you are not permitted to bait (encourage with feed or a toy) or touch the dog while the dog is pulling.

You may give hope or courage to the dog from the finish line or drive the dog by walking to the side and behind them while encouraging them to pull the weight.

Your dog has one minute to finish the pull. If they do not pull the weight helpers will come out and help the dog so they succeed. You do not score any points if the dog needs help.

The dog that pulls the most weight according to their size wins the pull.

Using this system you will see huge dogs lose to little dogs because the little dog pulled more weight equated to their size in open pulls. Both organizations offer pulls for specific breeds.

The most frequent breeds employed are:

1. American Pit Bull Terriers

2. American Bulldogs

3. Malamutes

4. Rottweilers

But other breeds like Cocker Spaniels and Poodles also get involved in weight pull.

Whatever camp you want to get started in you must get galore professional support or find a person who has been doing weight pull with the UKC or the IWPA for a while and ask them questions.
