DOG WANTED

LEAD DOG WANTED
01/06/08
My lead dog is out of commission for the season! I run a team of purebred Samoyeds, so am looking for a well seasoned, slower lead dog to borrow/rent. I am short on room in my very small kennel, so prefer a dog in the Birchwood area that I can come get. I mush at the Chugiak and Montana Creek trails. I am also willing to run several other "retired" dogs with my team, if anyone has slower dogs that don't get out enough.

We would like to find a good home for my son’s dog. We got him as a puppy for our son and he is leaving for college soon. Rohn is an Alaskan Husky mix, born in January 2004. His father ran in the Iditarod in 2004. Rohn could be a great skijor dog, possibly a team dog, but we don’t know how well he will do with a team since he is our only husky. He has not been trained as of yet, but loves to pull anything attached to him. We want to find a good home for him since his master cannot take him to college. I have attached a picture. We can be contacted at
