heres some news from jen and blake freking on aries, the dog injured in the snow mobile accident.. dogs are remarkable and can funtion fine post injuries and adapt very quickly, just so pleased he isnt in any pain...
get well soon aries!!!!!!!!! and huge god blesses and prayers for you, the team and your mom and dad jen and blake!!

this just in from iditasupport gang

We made it back to Willow today.... The dogs look great, and Jason and Erin
have done a great
job caring for the teams since they came home from Nome.
Aries is adapting to life with a paralyzed leg. He has a brachial plexus
injury, thus the nerves
to his left front leg are no longer functioning. He may regain some or all
of his movement in his
leg, but it is not very likely at all. He has no deep pain or sensation in
the leg at all. All we can
do is give him time and care and hope for a miracle.

More later,

Jen
