What is a "sled dog"?
A sled dog is a working dog bred and trained for pulling sleds or sled-like vehicles in snowy or icy conditions. They are known for their endurance, strength, and ability to withstand cold temperatures. Sled dogs work in teams, with each dog having a specific role, such as a lead dog for navigation, swing dogs for steering, and team dogs for power and momentum. Popular sled dog breeds include Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, and Samoyeds. These dogs require specialized care and training for their physical and mental well-being, and sled dog racing is a popular competitive sport that showcases their speed, endurance, and teamwork.
