Husky Homestead

So first off, Here's the picture of jake and carlos up on the wall at Rose's cafe. Jake is in the middle and Carlos is the top middle picture. They are pretty proud of their accomplishments. The guy on the top right cracks me up!


We got to go on a tour of Jeff King's dog kennel the other day. He's won the Iditarod race a few times apparently. It was pretty interesting to learn all about the Iditarod and how the race works. When we got there the first thing they did was hand out these 8 day old puppies.
Cute!
Shortly after they handed them out mine started leaking.
>.<

They did a neat presentation of the ways they exercise their dogs in the racing off season. Here is one, a giant hamster type wheel that the dogs jump into and run really fast!
It was really fun and being there reminded me how much I loved dog sledding when I went. I really want to try it again and learn more about it!
