  SLEDDOGS
The best-known purebred sleddog breeds are the Siberian Husky, the Alaskan Malamute, the Canadian Inuit Dog, the Greenland Husky, and the Samoyed.
Sleddogs are expected to demonstrate two major qualities in their work (apart from basic physical capability to pull the sled).
Sleddogs pull various sorts of sleds, from the small 25-pound sprint-racing sleds, through the larger plastic-bottomed distance racing toboggan sleds, to traditional ash freighting sleds and the trapper’s high-fronted narrow toboggan.

 Feeding Seppalas (2)
Sleddogs are typically fairly close to the primitive dog type and are directly descended from wolves, who are unarguably carnivores.
Both are of maximum nutritional value to the dogs in their raw, fresh form, but the natural, raw fresh forms of both meat and fish are subject to serious problems in terms of access, handling, freshness, and possible contamination with infectious organisms.
Sleddog owners should try not to be hesitant or squeamish about buying live animals as meat sources.

It is amazing to me that Kelowna, British Columbia pop-rock band Sleddogs have only been together for about 18 months because they are tighter and more polished than many bands I’ve heard who have been established for five times as long.
Sleddogs don’t sound anything like those bands, (imagine a blended concoction of Gino Vanelli, April Wine, The Tea Party and Grant Lee Buffalo/Phillips) but Byrka’s powerfully clear and resolutely sensual bass vocals are supported by exceptional back-up harmonies.
Between live shows in Canada, Sleddogs is currently recording a new project in Vancouver which is slated for a fall release.
