Husky kennel visit

Our 1-hour  husky kennel visit is a backstage pass into the world of our Huskies. Whether you are a lifelong dog lover or simply curious about the sled dog lifestyle, we welcome you to step into our world. Are you curious about what our huskies do in summer time, this is the time to find out!

What can you expect?

Your journey begins with an introduction to our pack. These aren’t just working dogs; they are our family. You will spend time in the heart of the kennel, where you’ll be greeted by wagging tails and friendly “husky howls.”

Enough time and opportunities for hands-on interaction, photos, and, of course, many belly rubs.

Many people wonder what sled dogs do when there is no snow. During your visit, we’ll take you through the seasons. But the main focus is summer, you will learn how we keep the dogs cool, active, and mentally stimulated during the warmer months.

The best part of a kennel visit is the stories. You’ll have dedicated time to chat with our experienced guides. Ask anything—from “How do you remember all their names?”, “How do you know if a harness fits correctly? “Who are the leader dogs in the pack?”.
