Tribute to Snickers

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

BIG lump in my throat for that one! I followed Barbaro's story and was so crushed when he had to be put down!
Very touching, thanks!

Adella,

I purchased the print at the Fine Arts Gallery in Cherokee, NC, but I have seen it in several galleries. Hopefully, this is the link to the print on his website: http://www.donaldvann.com/prints/rb.shtml

When I read the info beside the print on this link, his dog was referred to as a "pound puppy." However, when I purchased the print, the gallery owner said that Donald's dog was a Siberian Husky, and Donald was there nodding an agreement to the statement. So????

When a Siberian Husky dies, they earn their "Silver Harness". We believe that the Northern Lights are caused by the light reflecting off their Silver Harnesses.
