"The Start Of A New Era Here In The Northern Forest!"

Reinvention is the way to new beginnings!
Due to conic knee injuries suffered from over the years of athletic activities, caused me to rethink my continued racing activities in Mid/Long Distance racing. I felt that my ability to safely look after my dogs in these events was questionable. I never want to put the health and safety of my dogs in jeopardy for my pursuit of personal desires.
So, I was faced with a decision on either quite mushing or reinvent the type of races I wished to participate in.
After participating in an Open Class Sprint Race for fun here in Saint Michel, I decided to convert my kennel to Sprint Dogs.
The above photos of of my team of Distance Dogs competing in my first Sprint Race. I even used my distance sled for this event.
I truly enjoyed the experience and had fun.
Thanks to a new found friend (Rosaire Perron) who gave me to of his sprint dogs for breeding, I commenced on a five year program to produce a competitive Open Class Sprint Racing Kennel .
And so a new adventure with Sled Dogs began!
​Until next week......
