                       WEIGHT PULL
                      

If you own an APBT you know the intelligence, strength, loyalty, athleticism, courage and truly loving dispositions these
dogs possess. APBT'S are high energy dogs and their "NO Surrender" attitude is perfect for the moxy needed to perform in weight pull activities.

                                            " PIT BULL MOXY " TM

what is weight pull? weight pull is an event in which the APBT competes within his weight class pulling a cart and specified weights 15’ (feet) in 60 seconds. Every dog will pull to his/her weight limit within weight class entered.
   Place awards of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd will be determined through a process of elimination by increased weight determined .

How is weight pull done >? the dog is harnessed and hooked to the cart which has added weight for each round. Each dog has 60 seconds to pull the load 15 feet. the dog who pulls the most weight in the fastest time wins.

 

  what equipment dogs my APBT need?

  A correctly fitted Harness and lots of moxy.

 

Where can I buy the needed equipment?

 

 

 more info coming soon :)

               SPRING/FLIRT POLE
 
 Spring poles are  an exercise tool used by legit owners to give their dogs a great work out.

Pit Bulls love their spring poles. It is an awesome tool to  burn off some serious energy in a shorter period of time.

This activity  does not cause aggression or any dog to "snap". Any dog that snaps is an unsound dog and has always been an unsound dog.
