He's gorgeous and in amazing shape for an old fella, keep up the good work. I love EBTxSBT's they make a really good dog. We have a few members on here that have really good weight pulling dogs, it's an event that needs the right training or you can end up with a dog that doesn't enjoy it or want to do it. There is a really good article on here about weight pulling, (can't remember where but I will find it and point you in the right direction) it's a very misunderstood sport and I'm not entirely surprised you got some ignorant veiws from people on other forums, you won't find that here . Welcome to the S.A.C.S forum.

There are actually four different articles on weightpulling in the excercise section so there's quite a bit of reading there but it's all good advice.
