Weight Pulling
Weight pulling is a competitive sport where dogs are trained to pull heavy loads over a specified distance. The sport showcases the strength and endurance of various breeds, particularly those known for their physical capabilities, such as Siberian Huskies and Alaskan Malamutes.
In a typical event, dogs wear a specially designed harness attached to a cart or sled loaded with weights. The goal is to complete the pull within a set time limit, demonstrating both the dog's power and training. Weight pulling emphasizes teamwork between the dog and handler, promoting a strong bond through training and competition.
