Husky & Co is a sled-dog operator based in Inari, Lappi, offering hands-on experiences with a resident pack of dogs. The operation runs a renovated kennel where visitors can meet puppies, dedicated working dogs, and retired companions.

All experiences focus on animal welfare and safe guest interaction; the kennel setting offers opportunities to learn about sled dog care, behavior, and the seasonal routines of working dogs. The location in Inari provides direct access to Arctic scenery and local nature. Bookings typically include guided instruction, necessary equipment for the activity, and post-activity refreshments for longer tours.
