Comments
"Thank you for the wonderful dog sled ride on Tuesday. It was a highlight of my trip and of this year. Wishing you the
best in this great life you've made for yourself in Alaska." - Nancy Oakland, California
I applaud you for your efforts on behalf of these wonderful dogs!!
I AM SO GLAD THAT I WAS ABLE TO SHARE SOME OF MY TIME IN ALASKA WITH ALL OF YOU!!
I will surely look forward to another sled ride, the next time that I travel to this part of the world!
Please give each of your dogs a BIG HUG for me!! (especially Griffin--I really love the way you let him wear his harness
and run along side with the rest of the team--allowing him to maintain his self-esteem and
perform with the group--the best of his ability!). Thanks again!!" - Virginia, Tacoma WA
"I am so impressed with the voice control you have. You certainly have an amazing way with dogs." - Mary Shields
"Thank you for a great time on our February 14th dog sled ride. It filled everything we
wanted and more!" - Tim, Joan and Catherine
"Thank you again so very much! We will remember our dog sled experience for a long time. Carl was fascinated with the dogs following your voice command so readily - if only our grandsons will do the same. Ha!" - Linda, Wallace NE
See you on the trail!
