I need a dog like this.

[Bopeye]

I need a dog that can pull me to the hunting areas. Get a load of this guy. A fifty pound dog pulling 7475lbs, 149x his body weight!!!
I gotta get me another Pit Bull. I believe that pull took place in Hickory, NC.

What a powerhouse. Those Pitt's are tough to beat on the pull line. Always good to see them used in a positive manner!!

[Bopeye]

Yep. Most abused and misaligned breed on the planet.

That really is amazing but do you really think he could pull you?   

Sorry Bop but I just couldn't hold it back.

I hit the link before reading and thought it was a Pit.  Very muscular dogs.  Hats of to him/her !!!

Wonder how a Boxer would do, they have some good upper body strength as well ???

I don't know Silencer, but I bet they would do pretty good. My brother in law has one and it is powerful.

I was thinkin the same thing when I saw that clip.

Boxer's would be decent pulling weight, but the Pitts have a lower center of gravity . The shorter legs gives them a better mechanical advantage over long legged dogs.

YEA!!! I'm kinda proud of that 


This is an interesting thread. Other than sled dogs, I've never heard of pulling dogs.  I must have a bit to much yankee in me.

[Bopeye]

Not at all CB. Pit bull weight pulling contests are more popular in the Northwest then followed by the Northeast. Seems like the yanks like it better than the rebs do, which is quite perplexing. 

I like the idea of it because you aren't dependant on anything else but how you and your dog perform. 

Squirrel dog, coon dog, rabbit dog competitions are all dependent on how much game there is where you are drawn out. How unbiased or biased the judge is, etc. You can get caught up in a lot of homecooking and politics with these competitions.

With these IWPA weight pulls it's cut and dry. Break it down into weight classes and see who's dog pulls the most.
JUDGES DON'T determine who the winner is, the DAWGS DO. 

I'm seriously looking into it. Be good exercise training them and who could want a better hunting partner than a pit bull covering your back.

I think the rebs added a twist with larger loads.................

A match and a little kerosene and I could get a cat to do that too :roflmao:

Ive always loved pit dogs, had my first one when i was 16, jet black, named her Petunia  ....but ill tell you what she was no Wallflower haha....I had a little female named Snakebite, and never needed a car or house alarm with her around....in fact, Id feel sorry for anyone who broke in with her and her BIG blue Georgia pit buddy MadMax in the house. MadMax, best dog I ever had, absolute tank...people use to ask me if I was juiicng him up on steroids...Ill have to post a pic...he used to pull tractor tires, break tethers made for calves, chew on 2x4's and retrieve boulders  ....his daddy, Gator, was the kind of dog people would walk out back to the kennels, see him, freeze into place and go OH---MY----GOD!....Max was a pig dog too, would nail em n hold em. Ive been thinking real hard about another dog, either a pitbulldog or a dogo argentino, thems some BaddAzz dogos...of course  :highclap:some beagles, and a pointer and a lab......

The only problem is the cost of the liability insurance to have them on your place. 

Talk about a friggin racket!!! 

[nastygunz]

We dont have that up here in hillbilly land....but you really do have to be careful, if any dog bites someone you can get in trouble but if its a pitdoggie u can just bend over in court and kiss your ass-ets goodbyeeeeeee

This is my old pitdog, he was a brute, here he was dressed up as a biker for a town parade  , checkout that slab of jaw muscle sticking out
