Hey Tashi; how old is Bolo? When did he start pulling?
I'm just curious as to when you suggest weight-pull training start? I've heard wait until the growth plates close; I've heard never too early.
Since you seem to be doing it right; what do you suggest? Did you x-ray Teal before you started? Did Bolo's owner x-ray him?

I don't know if I want to do weight pull with Dora; we don't have much opportunity for competition; but I would like her to pull the kids sleigh; and don't want to start her too early. Seeing your guys pulling such big weights at such young ages makes me think that I'm being a worry wart.

Thanks for your suggestions.
