Unfortunately, we had to pull out last minute from Pasviktrail. One dog started showing mild signs for kennel cough and now two more dogs, so the rest of team might get it too (we hope not) It seems that atleast one were infected at Finnish Champion race and with time few more started showing symptoms now.
There has been discussion at Finnish Siberian Husky board about this kennel cough event.

We feel so sorry for Dathan who did lots of work training the dogs specifically for this race.

now at the moment it doesn´t feel fair, but there is always next year and we hope to have Dathan and Hannah back.....training hard for next year :)

Ali finished LD in 6.place. All in all dogs were doing good, but last stage distance finished too early.....

Last weekend we entered Finnish Champion Unlimited Middel Distance race 3x50km with 6 hour break after each 50km.
We won UMD Champion and hard workers were:
Arctic, Neiden, Tundra, Troy, Stabba, Kusko, Legend and Nova
And Ali helping hard :)

Same dogs will run still Pasvik Trail 300 with our guide Dathan Trent.

We have had great season working hard and still able to enter races, thanks to Dathan and Hannah, they been absolutely the best you could imagine to have and they are brilliant with dogs. Now is their turn for race soon, but we have 5 day husky safari first...
