Heritage Gear for Draft Teams

Visit the Shop

Now Available: The Training Cart

The Training Cart is live and it reflects everything we’ve learned from years of real draft work.

We kept what worked from the original Wilczek Woodworks trainer and refined it based on experience and feedback. The result is a cart designed for clarity and progression, with adjustable, removable shafts that make setup and transport straightforward. No tools required. No unnecessary complications.

Designed to support dogs getting started, the Training Cart doesn’t stop there. With clean lines and a well-balanced feel, it’s equally suited for competition and real work beyond the ring. For many teams, it becomes the cart they train in, show in, and rely on as they grow together.

Built on Tradition

For generations, the craft of the wainwright — the wagon maker — set the standard for strength, precision, and care. Every joint, every piece had to last through seasons, roads, and weather.

That same spirit is behind Wainwright Cart Co. From harness bags to harnesses, from travel essentials to carts, every design honors the heritage of dog draft while meeting the demands of today’s handlers. No shortcuts. No throwaway parts. Just heirloom-quality work made to last through adventures, trials, and generations of faithful companions.

Made for the Work. Made to Last.

Our dogs give us everything — heart, grit, and a willingness to work. The least we can do is carry that forward in what we make for them.

Wainwright is built on the legacy of the artisans who came before us — cart builders and craftspeople who knew every detail mattered. We honor that tradition while designing for today’s handlers: durability you can trust, features that make sense in the field, and a heritage style that feels worthy of the sport.

Because when your gear keeps up with you — instead of holding you back — you get to focus on what really matters: the work, the partnership, and the joy of the team you’ve built.

This is more than equipment. It’s the legacy you carry forward, every time you put your dog in harness.
