Yes, I used it twice this December with Bandit, and in previous years I have used it with two Malamutes, when I had two, with as many as 6 dogs, using some from two Malamute friends in the area, and with single dogs or pairs for weight pulling contests. Our champion M, after he retired from the show ring, loved the weight pulling contests. More recently, Lee and I have not had the time to train our dogs for more that just fun runs around the yard, down the quiet street we live on (when we have someone to stop cars coming in) and along the sewer easement through the woods when the snow is deep enough to make that passable.
Missing from the image, of course, is a harness. As anyone who has been around sled dogs knows, when the dogs see the harness, they get very impatient and a bit rowdy, so I took his portrait before bringing out the harness. The line hanging down from the front part of the sled has a metal hook with clasp that is used to connect the sled to the tow line. Thanks for looking and commenting.
