[quote=Flukie]ren...would you recommend any type of training to a least see how he might handle pulling? I am stiil working on the obedience to get that locked in, but am wondering if it would be ok/wise to have him pull anything at all(even just light weight stuff) to see if this is even likely with him? I am just wondering if there's a good way to "mock" the pulling so I can see if he's gonna tolerate it or not. I have no intention of really working this until obedience is solid and he's a bit more mature/grown cause I really don't want to deal with the negative possiblities. Just looking for advise. Thanks.[/quote] Flukie How old is your dog? Do you have a pulling harness to fit the dog at the age he/she is now? As a puppy your best thing to pull would be only a max of 10 lb chain and something that makes noise so they get use to something being behind them. You can scare a puppy really easily and that pup will never pull correctly and want to enjoy it if you do not take baby steps. Deb Ren do you agree? It would be the same for Sledding correct?
