About
We start with a visit in the kennel where you can see how the dogs live. We let a bunch of dogs out from the kennels to run around and play and get some cuddles.
We have a special belt to put around our waist where we will attach the dog. You will now get to feel the power of a sled dog when we take a short walk down to the lake where we will have some swedish “fika”. Means boiling coffee and having a good time next to the fire and cuddling with the dogs.
