Join us in our weight-pulling contest, better known to participants as the Pit Bull Pumpkin Pull!
Notice to other dog owners: Give the Pit Bulls a run for their money, and enter your dog into the Pit Bull Pumpkin Pull Contest—whatever breed it is. All breeds are welcome to compete for Pumpkin Pull Prince or Princess!
