Dogsled Ride in Juneau Alaska July 21, 2017

in dogs •  7 years ago 

In the summer the trainers have the dogs pull what looks like a modified golf cart (no engine) around a gravel course. The dogs were smaller than I imagined, the handler explained that larger dogs are stronger but they get tired faster.

Our 'sled' was pulled by a 15 dog team. The handler said one of the dogs was not cooperating with dog-partners so that dog was not partnered up. The ride is a lot hairier than the video my suggest because after awhile I had to stop recording to hang on to anything. The dogs take the corners at full speed.
