I start teaching my dogs to wear the harness when they're 5 or 6 months, and we do very light drags at 8-9 months. Nothing heavy until they're over a year old. Especially with an XXL dog, you want to give them lots of time to physically and mentally mature. Some harness makers include Browndog design, CDpits, Mighty Harness, Tablerock Harnesses. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
NAPBTC is a UKC club, and the UKC offers programs for spayed/neutered dogs to compete. If you visit the club's website and drop them a line, I'm sure they'd appreciate your support, no matter if your dog is neutered or not. :)
I always wanted to do weight pull with my male, but he broke his knee at 12 weeks, I wasn't comfortable training him to do anything strenuous after that. Still considering it for my female.
Where might I be able to find the lyrics for or a downloadable version of the song used in this video (Work Son by Scot Dowd)?
