I loved it! And yes, it is true. Sled dogs are extremely focused on what they LOVE to do... which is also their "purpose"-- what they were born for. Plus, the breed is genetically predisposed to pull. It's in their genes. I run dogsled tours in Western Maryland-- they don't care where they run/pull, or what they run/pull! If you got on the sled while they were being pet... excitement over the pulling possibility would become much more important to them then the physical attention. Hey, I used to know a mushing "Kim." Was she a bit chunky with short blond hair? I wonder where she ended up. Come dogsledding again... many tour operators are all over the lower 48 states! Best, Linda Dear Bart,
