sled dog racing
Canine snow competition
Sled dog racing is a winter sport in which teams of dogs pull a sled across snow or ice, guided by a musher.
Races range from short sprints to grueling multi-day events like the Iditarod, which covers over a thousand miles of Alaskan wilderness.
Huskies and malamutes are the breeds most associated with the sport.
