Dogsled Racing

i do not know that is why i am asking you.!

A musher can have a maximum of 15 dogs to start the Iditarod race. He must have a least 5 dogs in the harness at the end to officially finish. Dogs can be dropped for many reason such as injury, illness, and attitude issue.

Mary Shields was one of two women to be the first to participate in the Iditarod Trail Race in 1974, and the first to finish the Iditarod. She placed 23rd then. Her first race experience came shortly after she came to Alaska. In October some friends of hers let her borrow 3 of their dogs and a sled for her to use in hauling water and firewood. From this experience she learned a love for dogs and mushing.

Rachael Scdoris is a dog musher and cross country runner. She was the first legally blind person to complete the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race.

The Iditarod always starts on the first Saturday in March, with a ceremonial start in Anchorage. The restart is the next day.

Susan Butcher's lead sled dog was named Granite. She was the first woman to win the Iditarod four out of five sequential years. She died on August 5, 2006, after a battle with cancer. The first Saturday of every March is Susan Butcher Day in Alaska.

Actual distance for either the southern or northern route is just over 900 miles. It varies slightly year to year, as the trail is not exactly the same. Sometimes they cross Norton Sound, sometimes they go around, etc.

Well theres shelly hill on Shelly Cresent,and Boler Mountain.

A bib in the mushing world is no so they don't have to clean their jackets, no! It shows the musher's starting order.

Then everybody else would die, too.

2010 race will start Saturday March 6th at 10:00am. End depends on when and if you cross the finish line. Shortest was 8 days plus and most mushers are across no later than 16 days.

At this point I could say that its because of instinct, the only time I would say this, would be because the female dog felt that its litter was threatened by the other dog.

However, under any normal circumstance (Including the male dog attacking the female) this type of behavior is brought about by neglect from the owner. The owner not properly taking care of the dog (Training, socializing, etc) is probably 99.9% of the problem.

The Iditarod race course is from Seward, Alaska to Nome, Alaska.

Most people assume that since sled dogs have such thick fur that they can stay warm in even the coldest of temperatures but in reality the sled dogs need help staying warm in the cold, just like you or me. It may sound a bit silly but it is not uncommon for sled dogs to be fitted for special jackets that hug the body and keep heat from escaping. Most dogs wear booties on their feet.

Postaxial hand polydactyly is a common isolated disorder in African black and African American children, and autosomal dominant transmission is suspected. Postaxial polydactyly is approximately 10 times more frequent in blacks than in whites and is more frequent in male children. In contrast, postaxial polydactyly seen in white children is usually syndromic and associated with an autosomal recessive transmission.

The closet dog to the sled is called the anchor

Biting and chewing at their paws is often a symptom of an allergic reaction to their food. Try simplifying your dog's food to a salmon and brown rice OR a Lamb and brown rice diet for a few weeks. If the chewing stops or at least slows, you'll know you are on the right track. You can start reintroducing proteins and vegetables but only one at a time. If your dog starts chewing on their paws again, remove the last food item from their diet and go from there. Of course, a vet visit is always a good idea to be sure your 'best friend' is free from serious illness!

Not dodging the question, but a little of both. It depends on the info they have available about the account, their workload and other factors. Some lenders specify NO CONTACT with the debtor.

It greatly varies from dog to dog and what type of sledding they where bred for. Sprinters, dogs competing in short races against time, are bred to be fast, but they often don't have much stamina, and are often greyhound, pointer, lab, and small husky mixes.

Frieght dogs have a lot of stamina, but they are usually bigger and tend to be slower as they are often mixes of GSD, Malamutes, and large huskies.

Then you have distance runners, like iditarod dogs, who are bred to keep up a steady pace at a long periods of times. Dominated by Seppalla's and 'Alaskan huskies' (which typically have more hound then husky), these dogs can usually run at 20 MPH for at least 30 miles, and well bred ones can keep up the pace for 50 miles or more. However, long-distance running is hard work and often dangerous, so it's rare that they would be running so far without slowing down or even pausing occasionally.
