We headed to the Juneau Ice Fields where a summer dog camp is set up. These dogs are bred to run and they need 10 miles a day to stay fit and healthy. Rob and I are flying in to help cover some of those miles.
The dogs are led by voice commands only. They are smart, strong and love a cuddle AFTER they have had a run. Beforehand, they are just chomping at the bit to get going and they are full of beans.
Such a terrific experience in a beautiful place.

| Unless you are the lead dog, the view is the same for the next 10 miles!! |
