www.pbfsa.co.za (http://www.pbfsa.co.za)I have never been into weight pulling dogs so dont take my ignorance regarding them as fact...but I heard of a dog named Red Chevy that could pull like 15000lbs on rails for just working weight...that wasnt his max weight.....he was huge though I think like 105lbs ..I dont know how true this is but thats like 7.5 tons...

nice looking dog to....stuck in my mind because the owner stood behind him instead of in front for the pull.

I would be. Dodge Vans weighed more than Chevy or Ford Vans too, Heavier frames, more respectable for a dog to pull out of the mud...lol.

www.pbfsa.co.za (http://www.pbfsa.co.za)So Theres a couple of 5 tonners for ya there too, So Id say your dogs are doing good, you should come here and compete if they are really pulling that much. You might win a trophy.

Whats the weight pulled to weight ratio.....to me thats more impressive than overall weight pulled.Lets just say Chevy weighed 105, instead of 106 and pulled 11500, that is a ratio equal to every pound of his body pulling 109.5lbs. 1lb:109.5lbs... Thats amazing.

We've been pulling dogs for almost 20yrs now....the most weight we have ever saw pulled was in Muskogee Ok, a dog named Eddingtons' IKanPullMore weighed in around 86lbs and pulled just over 11,500lbs on rails. That was in the mid 90's.
Now we have also seen 35lbers (Wilhe, Kanshee) pull OVER 230+ x's their bodyweight at Nats in Tennessee.:)

Cool i found my weight converter cause we use kilograms this side of the world
Our dogs weigh in between 74 and 80 pounds (34 to 38kg)
Pulling about 12125.42 pounds which is about 5.5 tons (current record)
Yes we are pulling on rails, in fact we use rails to weight the trolley/cart
Dogs pulling about 5.5 tons are baited:p
"GOOD" Command pulling dogs average between 9920.8 and 11023 pounds
We have 1 year old female that pulled 9920.8 last month
Males from our bloodline pull around 8818.49 pounds at 6 months
Most of the people bait their dogs(good or bad?):D
The South African championships are on the 3rd of September so should be impressive as all the guys are training their dogz
Will keep you guyz posted
have a look at www.pbfsa.co.za
How do we compare?
How do i post pics and media clips so i can show you guys?

8818.49 pounds at 6 months?????WTF u know u could really mess up a pup doin that So we've been told? (not in disagreement)
But the current record holders are an 8 year old male called Bloodsport and his son Kyro (2 years old), that's been pulling since that age
I guess the hunger to get into competition for some people is just too strong:confused:

It is really hard to comapre what dogs pull because of the differences in the tracks no two tracks are the same. My bodg has pulled 9581 pounds and won the mwp and then he has also won mwp on a different track pulling 3100 lbs so it is hard to cmopare. and he is a grandson to chevy. chevy has the record for mwp that has to be set at nationals to be considered the record with 11,050 lbs. chevy was defintely an awesome dog for all he has accomplished.
