Hollingsworth Huskies

The past couple of weeks I’ve been gathering gear, running over supplies, and generally getting the kennel ready for a good winter of mushing. This year we plan on entering a few races as a three, maybe four dog team.

For the first couple of weeks in training (September/October), we’ll be focusing on slow, steady runs. This will give me a chance to work on behavior correction with the dogs, and get their muscles and ligament ready for the longer runs we’ll put in on the snow. At this point we’ll be using a dog scooter for training during the first few months - and I’ll be taking out two seperate teams. I’m not quite comfortable taking out a team of a three quite yet - on just a scooter. Later in the year, as the dogs become more trained - I might be ready to attempt a run of this caliber.

So - that’s the plan thus far. I’m really excited about this year, and will have a blast working with the dogs on the trail. Thank you for following us - and for your continued support.

Cheerful Trails,

Christian
