Description
This is a family friendly tour of an Alaskan working sled dog kennel. We will board an ATV and go for a ride with our sled dogs pulling us through a beautiful boreal forest setting.
Take a glimpse into the traditional life of a sleddog in Interior Alaska. The lineage of these dogs traces back to when the first Native Alaskans/Inuit people inhabited the Arctic. We also have dogs from the Canadian/Greenland Arctic regions and promote the subsistence lifestyle of those Arctic cultures.
These dogs will show you what they have been born and bred to do as pack animals, while we have been stewards of their care for the past centuries, maintaining this heritage. Witness the outright enthusiasm these dogs have for doing what they love!
This is a family friendly tour of an Alaskan working sled dog kennel. Guests will meet and greet tour host, then will receive a safety briefing. We will continue with an introduction to a what a working homestead is and how we care for sled dogs year round.
We will board an ATV and go for a ride with our sled dogs pulling us through a beautiful boreal forest setting. Afterwards, we will meet and greet with the dogs, plus picture time of course! Please bring a positive attitude, love for dogs and your camera with you!
