Weight pulling

[chaser17]

Is there anybody here that uses their mastiff for weight pulling?

If so how well do they do?

Their powerful dogs so I would think that it would be a great sport for them?

Any info would be appreciated thAnks!

At 5 months, swimming would be a much better conditioning exercise than doing any weight pulling. The only weight pull training you should at that age would be to get her used to a harness and let her pull around empty gallon milk jugs with gravel in them to acclimate her to the noise of so something behind her. Weight pulling is not a sport you should jump into without doing some research and without an experienced mentor.
