Can a person sue me for money they paid me to drive my car and the car was repossessed after 3 mos of non payment and the car is in my name?

If you had a contract to do something and were paid up front for it, and later circumstances rendered it impossible for you to fulfill that contract, then yes, you could be sued to recover the money.

It would almost certainly be cheaper for you to just voluntarily return at least a prorated portion of the money than to hire a lawyer (and probably lose anyway). If you can't repay the money, you should at least talk to them to try to set up a repayment schedule so they don't sue you. Lawyers are expensive, and it's highly likely you'll wind up paying their legal fees, so anything you can do to avoid them going that route is probably worth doing.

What is the protective gear used for sled dogs and how does this help the dogs?

Ok they have special harness for there body's that don't pull on the neck and cut air like a regular walking dog harness from petsmart would. They center around the chest and net around to the back to be secure and confortble for the dog. this way they have air and won't break free from the sled. They have snow boots that help protect their feet from the snow and ice because ice will pack in between the dogs paw pads spiking them like needle's or causeing them irratation. paw boots need to be changed about every few days if your running the dogs because the boots where thin and moldy after a while.
