I think I saw it on a “Things to do” list while in Seward. I just thought it would be fun to actually see one. They actually raise most of their money through these tours, since the race itself does not have a lot of prize money. I didn't know who Mitch Seavey was then, But I have been following him ever since. He and his family are great ambassadors for the sport!

That is so very cool. I would have loved to get to pet one of those dogs, but wouldn't have dared– even when a team or two stopped in front of us. I wouldn't have wanted to distract them at that moment.

How did you come to visit Seavey's kennel?

It was very enlightening and enjoyable. His son led the tour and was a competitor himself.
Until you see it in person, you don't realize how much these dogs live to run. They truly are incredible animals. I got to hold one of the pups then. I wonder if it was in the winning pack this year?
