Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Well unofficially as of right now....BUT today Dakota, our 10.5 year old boy, got his final qualifying leg toward his Working Dog Title in IWPA Weight pulling.  He pulled a total of 680lbs and made his momma super proud!  No photos from the event this weekend...but here are a couple from his past achievements!

You caught my interest awhile back, read a previous thread of yours about Dakota, I was bummed to learn no pulling here or near Texas this year, I checked the IWPA site. Do you recommend pulling tires as a start, that's what they(IWPA) suggested?

I pull wheels (IWPA term for cart) because that's the easiest for us to find up here, and easier than snow. Hoping to do snow this year, depending on the availability and location-

Oh yes, he may be just over 10 but you'd never know it! He is the poster child of an active life being a healthy life!

Thanks! We sure like to think so Wink and at the risk of getting a little 'sappy' and nostalgic we realized that not only is Dakota our 'foundation' (lol if you can call a neutered pet that) but really he started this whole crazy love obsession with the breed. But also, he's the first (of hopefully many) performance titled dogs we have exclusively put all the qualifiers on.
