Comment to Weightpull & Bitework with Retriever
-
Hi Charlotte I weight pull my Presa's, APBT and Staffie Here is the equipment you will need to get the dog started - Harness - 5 lb, 10 lb, 20 lb, 30 lb chains - tire - drag sled - weights - cart I do not know if they do weight pulling in Denmark, but if they do this is what you need to train with. if not you do not need the cart. Harnesses you can get from www.alaskandream.org Melissa is a great lady, has been a WP judge for 12 yrs and can answer all your questions. Here is a few photos of her harnesses on my dogs Drago Conan Harlie Reina Juda Pepper at a weight pull event Start with only a harness Move to the different weights of the chains so the dog understands he will be pulling then more to the tire and drag sled which back and forth I use the chains for endurance and I have the dogs run with them I use the tire & drag sled w/ weights for strenth I use the cart for just practice for the weight pull events Best of luck Deb
