If you like to ski, and you like to take your dog along, skijoring is a dog sport that you might enjoy! 

 

You simply put a traditional sledding harness on your dog, attach them to a belt around your waist, and off you go.  Dogs of nearly all sizes and body types can skijor with their human partner.

 

Sledding is also an option if you have a dog that is medium to large sized.  I have several extra harnesses and of course a dog sled, and I am actively seeking persons living near the Codroy or Port-Aux-Basques that would enjoy the occasional winter outing.  I'd like to do some winter camping trips using the sled, too!

 

 

 

Nearly any kind of dog can skijor or sled--you don't have to own a Husky.  All you need are skis, a skijoring belt and a proper harness that fits your dog.  A sense of humour is a good thing to have as well!  Skijoring packages are widely available on Ebay for very reasonable prices.

 

There are a growing number of people in the Corner Brook and surrounding areas that regularly skijor or sled.  If you are interested in becoming involved with the "Sunday Drivers," drop me a line or give me a call and I'll get you connected with folks near you!

 

 

 

 

For your viewing enjoyment, here are some photos of various sledding and skijoring fun our bunch have shared in the past couple of years.
