huskys4life Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 Does anyone do any sledding, scootering, skjoring (sp) or other pulling sports with their dogs? I am looking to get into these with my Sibe and am trying to find as much info on it as I can. I would like to find a good book to read on it. If anyone knows of one, please let me know!! Thanks!

huskys4life Posted April 13, 2003 Author Share Posted April 13, 2003 Oh. I guess I should have posted this in sports and activities. I missed that one. Sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin the musher Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Go to sled dog central .com- There is a list of resources as well as a mentor program. chances are you can find someone in your area willing to help you get started. Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malamum Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 Pumkin, had a look at the sled dog central site and it is really cool. I am keen to get a scotter and get into that with Indy. The mentor program looks great, I wish we had something like that out here in Australia as I really dont know anyone into sledding activities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskys4life Posted April 18, 2003 Author Share Posted April 18, 2003 Thanks for the sites! I will check those out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullygirl29532 Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 here is the link for the IWPA site [url]http://www.eskimo.com/~samoyed/iwpa/[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin the musher Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 If you check out the topic list on Sled Dog Central, there is a list of race results and races planned for the future in Australia. Maybe that would be a place to start looking for contacts- I've met a few people from Australia this last winter who were here for our N. Hemisphere race circuit.

huskys4life Posted April 23, 2003 Author Share Posted April 23, 2003 I've been looking at scooters and pricing lately. They are sooo expensive! I wish I had the money so I could start now! I am going to have to save up, unless my hubby can figure out how to make one for us. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
