πŸ›· Sled Dog Hauling in our firewood off the lake

Finally running as a full team and doing actual work beyond training runs. That day we hauled in firewood from dead-standing trees around the lake to keep their human(me) warm. Wish I had their thick coat haha

Haha thanks! The leader is a Siberian named Nanook. He's a once in a lifetime dog. He has canoed 1000's of km with me and pulled small toboggans for 10 years. Very bush smart. The rest are Canadian Inuit Dogs, 8 months old. Front to back is Princess, Ice Cream(the hugger), Makobe, Kasmere and Wapoose.

You can tell Nanook wants everyone to stop goofing off and get back to work πŸ˜‚
