I have a husky and i want to get a dog sled. I don’t know if I should get a wooden one or another kind. What kind of bindings should i get also? Should i get leather or tenon? I have no idea.What kind works best? It needs to be cheap too.

I am currently trying to write a book about Alaskan sled dog racing. I need to know the temperatures of Alaska for every season. If anyone has any additional information on sled dog racing, the Iditarod, or rules of the race, please let me know!

Seriously. I know you can get a DUI for riding a bike while drunk and for drunk boating. The thing is, I live in Alaska and dog sled competitively. Every once in a while I get loaded and have the dogs take me home. Could I get a DUI for that if the cops caught me?

This dog is not mine, she is my girlfriend’s parent’s. I like to take her for walks in open fields though. I’d like to let her off of her leash, but I’m afraid she will just run wild and I’ll never get her back. For now I just want her to have my attention, listen to me, and stop yanking on my leash. I know she is a sled dog, but she still needs to know some commands! She is only a year old by the way, so I’m sure she can still be molded! Thanks!

I’ve been thinking about trying dog sled out this winter. However I’m deaf and I don’t speak at all. So I’m wondering if I’m out of luck or not?

I want to teach my bernese mountain dog mix to pull a sled or wagon around the yard. Since I don’t want her to get injured I’m looking for a scale or something that gives a weight limit a dog of a certain size can pull. Also, any tips on going about it would help too.
Thanks

I’ve been around dogs all my life and know how to properly care for a dog and I able to train a house pet, but not a sled team

As I crested the berm of snow on the side of a seasonal road in the U.P., I saw a patch of ice that was going to be trouble. The dogs think corners are their chance to rid themselves of the musher, and so each corner is a game of crack the whip. Read the rest of this entry »
