Stop too fast? ;)
the reindeer makes Santa's sled move by pulling Santa's sled
The Chukchi people in the northern Siberia They bred them for reindeer herding and sled pulling
Now a days companions and sled racing. Way back when they were used for reindeer herding, sled pulling and slept in the house4s to keep the family warm.
on a reindeer sled.
On his sleigh? Reins. Santa puts reins on his reindeer that are attached to his sleigh. :D

A Samoyed is a breed of dog, that was origanally bred in Russia for reindeer herding and sled pulling. I own one myself, and they are excellent dogs to own and have around the house. Very sweet and friendly. :)
Pushing a sled requires the individual to overcome static friction, which is typically higher than the kinetic friction when pulling the sled. Additionally, pushing a sled can cause the snow in front of the sled to compact, creating more resistance. Pulling a sled allows the person to use their body weight more effectively to generate traction.
Sled pulling
Pulling the sled across a sidewalk would result in greater friction compared to riding it down a snowy slope. This is because the smooth surface of the sidewalk creates more resistance against the sled, while the snow on the slope would provide a smoother and more slippery surface for the sled to slide on with less friction.
Pulling a sled tends to lif the sled and decrease friction thus making less difficult. Pushing does the opposite.
The Dog pulls with force (equal action) throws snow back (opposite action) pulling the sled (reaction). SO its newton's Third law of motion. PS This belongs in a physics, science or math section. Not Dogs
