OUR DOGS
We refer to our dogs as Yukon Huskies. Their bloodlines go back to
various parts of the Yukon Territories where they were originally bred by
Native people to pull toboggans in deep soft snow conditions. Some of our
dogs lineage was in the last RCMP dogteam in Old Crow. They are big, long -
legged, very intelligent and extremely devoted. Yukon huskies are not as
high strung as racing breeds and because of their size and strength you need
fewer (normally five) dogs per team. All of these qualities make it easier
and more enjoyable for beginners to learn how to work with a dogteam.
We have been raising, breeding and training our bloodlines for nearly
30 years. One of the unique features of our dogyard is that we have bred,
raised and trained all of the dogs ourselves. We believe in providing an
excellent quality of life for our hard working huskies. We take one or two
on our guided canoe trips and we have three one acre pens they run loose and
play in during the summer months. Our committment to our dogs does not stop
when they retire from pulling. We have a very active elder retirement
community in our house. We take care of our dogs from birth to death. They
are part of our family.
