Weight Pulling
They both did great, actually really worked for me! What I mean by this, they dug in and pulled when it got tougher as the weight got heavier.
Sebastian had no competition in his weight class both days, so 2 blue ribbons and he got 2 of 3 qualifies for his first level UKC weight pull title (he pulled more than 8 times his weight). He pulled 1500 on Saturday and 1255 on Sunday. His previous best was 1150, so I'm very pleased. On Saturday he was starting to be a baby in the chute and I called him a baby, he got ticked at me because he dug in and pulled it.
Cinnabar had competition in his weight class on Saturday and I'm not sure about Sunday. He got two blue ribbons and he got 2 of 3 qualifies for his first level UKC weight pull title (pulled more than 8 times his weight). On Saturday he got a leg for his AMCA (American Malamute Club of America) WWPD (Working Weight Pull Dog - pulled 12 times his weight on carpet). Cinnabar pulled 1325 on Saturday and 1255 on Sunday. His previous best was 1050, so great progress!
