sled dogs
Arctic pulling pack
Sled dogs are dogs bred and trained to pull sleds over snow and ice, typically working in teams.
Breeds like huskies and malamutes have thick coats, endurance, and the temperament for coordinated pulling.
The sled dogs covered fifty miles before nightfall.
The practice originated with Arctic peoples and continues in racing and remote transportation.
