Horse pulling is a competitive event where horses are harnessed to pull a heavy weight over a set distance. The goal is to see which horse can pull the most weight while maintaining speed and control. This sport showcases the strength and training of the horses, often involving specific breeds known for their pulling ability, such as Clydesdales or Percherons. Competitions are typically held at fairs or agricultural shows, where teams of horses are judged based on their performance. Spectators enjoy watching the powerful displays of strength, as well as the skill of the handlers who guide the horses during the event.
