I think that necessity is the mother of invention. So when the dog's feet would get scratched up while running on the sharp snow and ice, the mushers had to figure out a system to prevent this so booties evolved. You know, there are dog coats too. Mrs. Connor's class - I wrote a big story on eating and drinking on the trail. It's posted by me on the Zuma site. That will give you lots of accurate information on eating and drinking on the trail.

He is very ill mannered, but very cute and we love him. He is a very big dog. He is black, white and pink. We think he might be a good sled dog because he likes to GO! He pulls on his leash and loves to run and never tires. But…he does not like the cold weather, he shivers when it gets to 40 degrees! Ansen My dog is a pit bull mixed with an American Bulldog.

Also, she started licking her paws so now she has an infection. It is nice that someone invented boots for sled dogs to wear. Jackquelynne jackquelynne
