Basic Pulling Instructions
Simply hook the weight up to your dog in harness and walk along side them while
they pull the weight. It is important that you don't load the dog up with
too much weight, always start with a realative light weight so that the dog
gets used to the resistance of the weight. An old tire works well, small chains,
even a small toboggan. There is a book called 'Guide to Pull Your Dog'
is available to assist you in further with your training.
Construction of Harness
Each Harness is 'Made in the USA' and is sewn with a heavy duty
upholstery stitching.
The Nylon webbing has a 2000 pound test. Each harness is sized by weight and
breed of dog.
Sizing a Harness for your Dog
This sizing would apply to all three styles of harnesses.
There are six (6) harness sizes available which are based on the dog's
weight, age and breed. The harness will fit a dog within 10 pounds of the weight
indicated on the harness size. Example: If a dog weighs 65 pounds you will need
a 60 Pound harness. If a dog weighs 90 pounds you will need a 100 pound harness.
- Be sure to have an accurate weight of the dog
- Age will be a consideration. If a dog is 18 months old and is not fully
matured the harness can stand to be a little big as the dog will probably
grow into it.
- Selecting the proper type of harness depends on what the dog is pulling.
If the load is coming from below the tail like a toboggan or the Regular Pulling
harness and the Competition harness would work the best.
- If the dog is pulling someone for ski-jouring, on a skateboard, rollerblades
or a sled team, the Racing harness would work best.
- Sizes available: 35#, 60#, 80#, 100#, 120#, 150#
- Colors available: Red, Blue, Black
This racing harness is the most versatile of all that mojopet offers. By design
it is meant primarily to pull objects that are higher than the dog's tail

tug line / pull hook up. A dog in this harness will be able to pull you while
on a skate board, rollerblades, ski jouring or even a bicycle, a 6 foot tug
line is recommend for these activities. If your dog likes to stay out in front
of you will you are going on an uphill trail he could help pull you up the trail.
