 things to do- places to go- people to meet | 
| Barked: Wed Apr 1, '09 3:58am PST | |  |  |  |  | Marlo,
Two a year is a good start! The more folks get into it, the more events will be organized for you to attend.
Stormy,
That Sheltie is our regional Gold Medalist for the 20lb class, and he's being featured in a major Sheltie magazine for pulling a cart.
The smallest dog I've seen pull is an Italian Greyhound at 10lbs, and he's one of the top dogs pulling in UKC!
All dogs love to pull, (as we see at the other end of the leash) and this gives them an outlet for pulling for fun.
Come on out and give it a shot! |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Tue Dec 23, '08 4:57am PST | |  |  |  |  | A good place for equipment is - http://AlaskanDream.org/
Alaska K9 Weight Pull Association - AK9WPA - http://ak9wpa.org/ - promotes the sport of Dog Weight Pulling in Alaska
They have an excellent training manual here - http://www.ak9wpa.org/staticpages/index.php?page=getting-started
Get in contact with them and see if they promote novice pulls. From their contact page it looks like there are people in the organization in Wasilla!
Good luck and let us know how you do! |  |  |  |  |
