Sled-Dogma Thursday
Sometimes the easiest way to learn something new is to be a kid again. PBS has a fun, little interactive feature to learn a few things about these amazing animals.
Did You Know?
- Sled dogs can run faster and longer in the snow with the snow padding their feet and the cool weather keeping them from overheating.
- Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies are the most common and traditional sled dogs. The two breeds share a lot of commonalities other than the instinct to be a “working” dog, they both have loving and outgoing temperaments, and make particular good therapy dogs. (AKC).
