Autumn and winther 2009-2010
This year we maneged to get the
foundation of a new team of four dogs; Mackinaw masterbrew, Uyak Kalamals
Arapaho Anna, Mihakias Eagleeyed Imelda and Mihakias Fender Chrome Silver.
We train our dogs in front of both
bicycle, cart and dogsledge, and I use them as runningpartners
as well.
It looks like the four of them are going to be great together. So far they can
all go as leaddogs, -and they are all good and hard working dogs.
We have tested them in Nordic Open in Åsarna, came in #2, did 10
on 38 min and 34 sek. We also participated in Beavertrap Trail again in the
tourclass. This year we drove a team of 4 dogs, and the total milage on the 3
days were 105 km.
The 6.th of january
we had a small gathering of sleddogentusiasts in the area of Northern Jämtland.
The only kind of sleddog, that wasn't here, was the samojede. We started the day
with coffee and homemade bread in our kitchen. When we all were ready, we took a
ride together out on the new trail, we had been preparing for the past couple of
weeks.
This year we had made 15 km wellgroomed trail directly from our doorstep. (-next
year we will try to make it 30 km). The weather was rather cold, but for
polardogs and their humans, cold weather is not usually a problem. We had about
minus 25 to minus 30 degrees celcius. Thanks a lot for all You people, who has
been visiting us with Your dogs that day and the following weekend(s) this
winther. Click here
to see photos from that day and other days with friends on the trail.
