DOG SLEDDING 🐾❄️

Dog sledding is a means of transport that has been used for hundreds of years.

Dog sledding races are also a very popular sport in these places.

A dog sledding team consists of a number of dogs and the musher; this is the driver of the dog sled. The most common type of dog used to pull dog sleds are huskies. People train the dogs from the time they are puppies. The dogs need to be able to pull heavy weights while running very fast across the snow.

Each dog in a dogsled team is very important. For example, the wheelers, the dogs nearest to the sled, are the strongest and biggest. The leaders lead the team; they are usually the cleverest and fastest and they run in front of the other dogs.
