We are just adventurous (and partly crazy) dog parents to Twigs (cattle dog x husky) and Huckleberry (cattle dog). I work full time in forestry (wildfire) and my husband Travis is an environmental scientist. We run a small school that teaches folks skills for skijor, kicksled and canicross with all moneys going back to charity (Red Dog Sled Dog School).

I’m 24 years old, from Palmer, Alaska but my kennel is located in Knik, Alaska. I have around 30 dogs at any given time, currently we’ve got 23 adults in training for this race season. I also have several pet dogs, including a 3-legged sled dog, a German Shepherd Dog, and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

I have been fascinated by sled dogs since I was a teenager. Throughout my school years a filled my passion by working with other kennels, first in Europe and then later in Alaska. Our kennel currently houses up to fifty dogs, that is counting puppies and geriatrics.

I adore my dogs. I have learned so much from them over the years. The kennel size right now is 22 dogs, 17 adult dogs in training and five puppies. There are also two yearlings who are training with a friend of mine, Christine. I am so lucky that she offered to train them because it takes the load off with 17 adults.
