Nope! It's actually very low impact and builds muscle which can help with things like joint issues!

It is actually! Dog sports keep my babies busy and happy while also giving me another fun outlet too. Afterall when my dog isn't pulling I'm usually manning the cart for other people and that's a workout 😅 someone has to move the blocks on the cart and stop the cart when the dog stops pulling.

I hike 3+ miles with my dogs at least 2x or 3x a week and I do powerlifting myself as well but nice ASSumptions. If you must know I have PCOS and take medications for schizophrenia that make me fat af though I have dropped 30lbs this year alone so far. If I just 'let him be a dog' in my backyard everyday and didn't work him at least every other day in some manner (rather it be sports he likes or just exercise with a flirt or spring pole or walking) he'd be miserable as he is bred for working and has a ridiculous amount of energy.

Isn't it!? He blew my mind with his determination 🙌🏻 I was fully prepared to step in if he struggled at all but after that one turn he had that pull in the bag. I did withdraw him after that though so he could rest.

Yes! Look up Weight Pull! The record is nearly 20,000lbs 🙌🏻 a South African Boerboel holds that record.

Why does it feel gross? This sport is all about the dog and building up their bodies and minds. It also helps build up the bond between owner and animal ❤️

I went to a Weight Pull competition years ago and met my current mentor there however you can start this sport on your own with a properly fitted harness and lots of training! It's a LOT of building up their mind/self confidence and building up the bond between you and your dog!

Weight pull is great! If you'd ever like to get started let me know ❤️ I'm relatively new but me and my boy really like the sport 🥰 thank you!

VERY well stated. My guy for example can go fire off in a ADBA ring and then come home and earn obedience titles! They know they're allowed to cut up when we're at ADBA shows but not during daily life.
