HONORING: Snow Dog Days of 2011

In honor of snow and dogs and SNOWDOGS!

I remember reading this book as a kid along with a bunch of others that my mother had kept for years. I wish I could remember all the others-I'll have to ask my mom. I can't recall the story completely, but I remember this exact copy of the book SO WELL that I can SMELL the book in my minds eye!

In case you DON'T have any snow...apparently you can still mobilize with your very own dog carriage.

AND IN CASE YOU REALLY want to get serious about this snow!

Be a handler during personal mushing lessons. Learn how to get started with your own dogs and kennel. Lessons available on how to train your dog and begin to develop your own mushing team. Group lessons are hands on and fully instructed. All equipment is supplied, though students are welcome to use their own.


"Can I use my own dog?".........."Yes!"

 

Arrangements can be made to teach your dog to pull. Keep in mind that patience is the key. Your dog may take more time to catch on for not all dogs are cut out for this type of activity. We can find a dog sport that both you and your dog can enjoy. Of course, seasoned dogs are available whose favorite part of the day is getting to run (mealtime follows closely behind). No matter how your lesson goes we are sure it will be lots of fun! Programs range in price depending on time spent, number of students involved, and the location of the lesson. Please contact us with any questions or requests.
