Those are my brother-in-law's family's dogs, a mastiff cross and a shitzu of all things, but he loves playing with them.

As for pulling, the practice is for actual competition where both weight pulled and time taken (distance 20feet) are taken into consideration.  Dogs are put into catagories by weight so there's some little dogs in the group (its amazing to watch a 12 pound italian greyhound pull 100+ pounds without so much as blinking, it really is).  At home we'll probly translate that to pulling a cart around the yard to help with stuff.

He LOVES his pool, its really funny, it was the best $10 I think I've spent on him yet!

He was 73lbs last week when I took him in to get his next months flea/tick stuff (at about 7 months give or take a week, I've lost track of what number of weeks old he is lol)

Door mat: "You read my doormat.  Thats enough social interaction for one day." I have yet to have a delivery guy who hasn't liked it lol

^ LoL  I like it too :)

He is a really, really big boy.  I couldn't imagine feeding him, or picking up afterwards.

That's an insane amount of food...  Snoop gets 3 cups of kibble divided up into 2 meals and Chase now gets 2 1/2 cups (he used to get 3 before he got old.. LoL).
