#2 Lead Instructors with combined experience of over 70 years.
Our core group of lead instructors have combined experience of over 70 years
in the dog sled touring and expedition industry. Feel at ease knowing that your tour is being led by industry experts. In addition to being certified in First Aid and CPR, all of our instructors receive extensive training where they learn about each dog on two different levels, before they even step foot on a sled. On a personal level each instructor and husky must create a lasting bond that is based on love and respect. We establish these bonds by becoming a reliable source of love and care as well as focusing on each husky as an individual. From a working perspective, this includes name, age, family and breed history, feed and hydration needs, dog team position, harness size, work ethic, disposition, and veterinary requirements.

#3 Friendly, pure touring huskies.
Our company celebrates friendly, pure touring huskies which are the real heroes of our team and the real roots of the sled dog sport. Our crew is highly respected in working with the historic Seppala Siberian sled dog, the beautiful Siberian Husky, the mysterious Canadian Indian Husky, the traditional Canadian Inuit Husky, and powerful Alaskan Malamute. In the touring industry the authentic pure breeds are, in many ways, more beneficial when compared to the cross bred racing huskies. Discover our breeds here!
#4 Focus on real, outdoor training.
Our dog training program is focused on acceptance amongst each other in order to create the most responsive, reliable and trustworthy teams. Power and speed can be fun, however when uncontrolled can be dangerous. We focus on real, outdoor training where socialization within the team, responding to commands, and real trail situation are of the utmost importance.

#8 No overloading of sleds.
Our sled configurations are based on what our happy sled dogs can respectably pull. It is not our goal to profit from overloaded sleds at the risk of compromising the safety of our guest and huskies.
#9 Informative introduction and instruction sessions.
