Does pulling a sled hurt the huskies?
We’ll let you be the judge! There is no question that our huskies LOVE to run and pull! We have a limit of 3 people per sleigh (based on our weight restrictions per sled) and a sufficient number of huskies pulling each sleigh to keep the work light and enjoyable for them! We would never compromise our huskies’ safety or well being!
There is no question that our huskies LOVE to run and pull! Because we have a limit of 3 people per sleigh and a sufficient number of REAL, traditional touring huskies pulling each sleigh to keep the work load light and enjoyable for them, they truly love what they do! There are dogs with jobs and then there are dogs that love their jobs! Our main trainers ensure our huskies have a healthy run/rest ratio by keeping track of when each dog runs, including the terrain and mileage involved. By doing this we are able to switch and change the teams up daily so that our dogs can enjoy running with a different partner, instead of set teams which prove to be very boring and even limiting for them! Our huskies also run on a large variety of trails as opposed to out and back on the same trail everyday. This also helps reinforce our rule of no fighting in our kennel which is truly an important asset on the trail. Because the dogs run with a different partner regularly, it creates better performing
