Weightpulling

Weightpulling is something that our first three dogs enjoyed. They were all competitive and easily earned their Weight Pull Excellent titles. It's always exciting to watch new pullers suddenly "get it." You can truly see the light bulb go on in their heads: "Oh, that's what you want me to do!" Our two younger dogs prefer sledding to weightpulling, which is fine, too. Malamutes are an active, thinking breed, with a strong desire to work. Giving them a job makes them happy. So we always try a variety of activities.

 

Hope's best pull ever was 4500 pounds     Glacier pulling at Madison WI     Comet pulling over 3500 pounds
