- TRAINING RUN with WORKING SIBERIAN HUSKIES | Daily Life in Swedish Lapland
Follow on a short training run with our Working Siberian Huskies pulling sleds in Swedish Lapland. In this video you will follow me, Matti, with 10 of our sled dogs. You will see how we work with our dogs and you will get a glimpse of our life style in the north.
Jokkmokkguiderna is a small guide company who offer tours in Jokkmokk, Swedish Lapland all around the year. During the winter it’s mostly dog sled tours and summertime it’s canoe, hiking tours and wildlife safaris. We, Matti Holmgren and Stina Svensson own and run Jokkmokkguiderna. We live year round with our Siberian Huskies and Border Collies in Jokkmokk, North of the Arctic Circle.

The huskies names are soo cool, and now I feel insanely happy that there is a husky with my name: Safiya
Thank you Safiya! 🙏 Her name is Sofia but maybe prenounced as Safiya. Anyway Sofia is a very lovely and pretty little spirit with a tough working attitude. All the best to you Safiya! /Stina
What well-trained dogs you have! A lot of suburban owners of huskies could learn a lot from you!
Lots of city dogs are frustrated. They need much more of different activities.
Without enough with activities they don't behave super nice... 😉
/Matti
Love the video and explanation of your routine.
Very informative. 👍🐾
Well thanks to all of you and the dogs for showing us the work you pack do.
I realy love this lifestyle ❤❤
Me to... :-)
/Matti
I love your videos I only have 2 dogs and they give me a lot of work.
Greetings from the end of the world. Patagonia chile
Thanks!
Patagonien… Thats fare away! I have met one guy who lived off-grid in Patagonia/Chile. His story was super fascinating! I think that’s an area that could have been very nice if you could live off grid.
:-)
Take care!
/Matti
Those dogs are so happy. Thx for sharing
❤️
Really enjoyed seen you out with your dogs 🐕 greetings from the west of Ireland 🇮🇪 a dull damp day .
Hello Ireland! Thank you for watching! /Stina
The leader is one clever clogs!
Sometimes you have clever leaders and somtimes someone who love speed without using the brain and sometimes someone who just do what you ask for without questions...

Luv from India broo❤️❣️😍
You are great with your dogs, you do everything to calm them but then ask them to be excited and crazy when you speak to them in that excited squeaky voice. You would find dropping that praise until you move off will greatly improve things.
Hej! hälsningar från Boden..alltid kul att se dina filmer med en positiv attityd till utelivet med era hundar som har ett härligt liv. (hälsningar från skoter mannen du brukar möta här å där med Schäfrarna)
Hej Kenneth!
Kul att du hittade vår kanal. Jag kommer mycket väl ihåg skotermannen med Schäfrarna som man träffar på alla möjliga ställen i vår fjällvärld!
På återseende.
/ Matti
I like the names of your dogs. They are gorgeous!
Thank you Sandra! Next weekend we will release a video where you will get to see the puppies that was born this summer so don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss out.🙂 /Stina
Hade varit kul om du berättade lite om din filosofi runt att hålla hundarna lugna och anledning till att inte ha nacklinor osv, bara lite allmänt lärande :D
Hej Jesse Nina.
Det är en mycket bra tanke. Jag har själv ambition att försöka göra något just på detta. Hur får man ett spann som man kan köra och vara med i naturen. Ett spann som man verkligen kan kommunicera med...även i starten.
Tiden är lite knapp men tanken och ambitionen finns helt klart!
/ Matti
I use a husky and newfoundland for working and it's actually impressive how strong a husky for their size
Hej jag älskar era videos och jag hade gärna viljat se 1 video om hundarna, lite information om deras personlighet och att ni hade visat dem medans de pratar om respektive hund❤❤❤❤ :3
Ska fixa... Tack för bra idé. Vi har gjort liknande på Instagram ibland.
/Matti
Mush!
Safiya is my favorite already
Sofia is a lovely dog ❤️. All of them are special. /Stina
Haha, at first I think he was talking about ELVES being on the trail! This is Scandinavia, so who am I to dismiss his belief in elves :P
( He said “elks”, obviously!)
Ha ha! Yes but of course we do have have both elks, elves and Trolls in the forests of Jokkmokk ;-)😉 /Stina
Underbart!! Vad trevligt att få inblick i ert liv. Jag skulle gärna veta hur dags det är under de olika moment i videon. Och jag är intresserad av all utrustningarna.
Det kommer mer med utrustning. Jag har just nu lite tidsbrist och mitt jag kämpar med att det tar för lång tid att redigera varje film. Sakta men säkert blir arbetsflödet snabbare.
Det kommer mer!
/ Matti
Great film, really insightful into the life you have and the process. I’m keen to understand how you introduce a younger dog to working? How young, how do you build up intently etc? I have a Northern Inuit pup and keen to know what level of exercise I can give her without future harm, but enough to make her strong.
Hello!
Mabye we should make a film about that. How we start training them and how it works for us. Thanks for very good input!
/Matti
JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA That would be FANTASTIC. The journey from a puppy where their bones and joints are still growing meaning you cannot place too much stress on them through intensive exercise to when they are ready to work at full capacity such as your guys easily pulling for 30km per day.
I want to better understand how you build up their strength without over doing it. Also whether you have had any issues with joint issues with your guys?
Look forward to seeing something 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
We do not have Elk in Scandinavia, but we do have Moose.
Älg as we say in Swedish is called Moose in American English and an Elk in British English. /Stina
I love watching you work with and train your dogs. Your affection for them is very apparent in your voice. Thank you for sharing a part of yours and your dogs lives with us! You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much! Thank you for your nice comment. /Stina & Matti
amazing! It is unbelievable how trained these dogs are, I'd never had the chance to watch this before. I'm curious thougth whether you receive any complaints from people who are worried about the dogs "being kept in cages" and all that animal care stuff
No...we haven't. One guy write to me and told me to not raise my voice to the dogs when they made some trouble.
I agree that I sometimes do that. I also agree that it's better to avoid that BUT when you standing with 12 dogs in front of the sled and an big elk pop up on the trail the dog MUST do what you ask them to do... I'm not asking them to do something in this stressful situations. I command them to do what they must do.
...but if I do strange things it's sometimes a reason and sometimes it's time for me to learn something new.
😀
/Matti
I think Lapland is more sensible than southern yourope or north america where the animals rights activists whine about working animals. Ive owned several working dogs, ive never seen a dog so happy as when they get to work!
Bro, how many dogs do you have? Now I have to go find that sled dog movie starring Cuba Goosing Jr 😂
We have 50 dogs in total at the moment. We just released a video about how they live and our kennel setup.
What if your dogs see an elk or a rabbit on a tour and want to chase after it, how would you be able to control them from doing so and crashing?
How many KMs of run do they get everyday? :) on a tour like this, each dog pulls about 10 kg of weight (assume you, the cart and 20kg of food are approximately 100kg), is that a good weight to pull for huskies?
Lastly! Is it too late to train 3-year-old huskies to pull sleds, if they’ve never done that before?
Thanks for the great content and hope to hear from you soon!
Gör en inomhusfilm när du lagar selar eller nåt skit, så vi får se ditt mysiga kök!!!!👏👍❤👻🥳🤓🙃👏
Eleonora... Det kan hända att det kommer nått från köket.
/ Matti
Are all your dogs Siberian Huskies, or Sepalla Siberians, or are some different breeds or mixes? Thank you. Very good video by the way. I subscribed.
Yes... all our dogs are pure Siberian Husky. Our blood lines is mostly from Zero and Igloo Pak/New England.
/Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA Very interesting!
Jag hörde att du pratade svenska så jag skriver på svenska istället😂. Kan du göra en video där du lär unga hundar höger och vänster och hur du liksom börjar med en hund osv. Skulle vara så intressant och veta😍
Jättebra idé! Vi har tänkt att göra både på temat ledarhundar men även från valp till slädhund... Det kommer successivt... 😀
/Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA åh vad bra! Jag har en dogo argentino valp som jag tänkte skulle dra mig på cykel eller skoter i framtiden och även på skidor under vintern. Är helt nybörjare på detta så behöver ALLA tips du har för att jag ska lyckas😂.
Do you use a cattle dog for the front?
How do the dogs know which way to go, driving pulling the sled?
We tell them left and right, but in Swedish 😉.
At what age you start training your dogs and how long does it take for them to obey your commands??
Hello!
The training starts from day 1. In the beginning just contact and cosy time.
When they start walking around we start to call them. They should come to us when we have food etc. Just playfully. When they ar 6 month they should now that they are not allowed to jump out through a door until we tell them to do that. They should come when we ask them to come. Now it's not only playful. Now we really want them to listen.
6 -10 month we start with harnessing them. In the beginning just short distance and suuuuuper playful. Just fun, fun and fun.
Every time you start with something new it should be playful and fun. Not to big steps forward.
Mabye we can make a video about this in the future.
Thanks for watching and thanks for asking. :-)
/Matti and Stina
I always wondered, how cold does it have to get before the dogs need booties? That would be terrible to get frostbite!
Hi Fredriik! The huskies doesn't get booties because of the cold. They wear booties if they get a small would or in certain snow conditions when we know that they will get problems if they don't wear booties. /Stina
Fredrikk forkbeard i live at 7,000 feet and am frequently in the mountains between 8 and 11,000 feet with my dogs. Even spending all day out in a blizzard, on the coldest of days, I have never seen one of my huskies get cold. A human will freeze solid long before a husky grows tired of the cold.
hur tränar du din övriga flock att vara så lugn innan/under påspänningen? jag har ännu bara två huskies men tanken är att kunna ha 4-6 huskies och 2-4 malamuter.
Hej!
Vi kör helt enkelt mycket med spannen. Är mycket med hundarna. ...men det är inte hela sanningen. Det bygger egentligen på allt från hundgårdsrutiner till körrutiner. Jag ska försöka visa detta i någon film i framtiden.
Du kan iallafall börja med att varje gång du startar spannet så släpp dem INTE utan att först ge ett tydligt startkommando. Det är ett mycket vanligt misstag att bara släppa spannet...
/Matti
Sir i think you left some of the dogs back there.
Will you take them the next day??
Yes...there is always dogs behind. I will make tours with them later the same day or it's their day off. Resting is an important part of the work/training. It's possible that they can get little bit to much also.
😀
/Matti
can I ask what is the posiotion of the dog alone in the front?
The borsercollie is just only my mascot. /Matti
just curious... why do you not have necklines ?
I usually don't use necklines on my team. If you have disciplined dogs that don't goes to others dogs, animals etc that you pass by then I think it's better. This gives the dog more freedom if they suddenly stepped into the deep snow or need to slow down the speed.
BUT our guest team has necklines because it's easier if you are a beginner.
This is how we are thinking. Do you have dogs? Do you use necklines?
/Matti
How the dogs know where to go?
The leader dogs (the dogs in the front) knows left and right so we steer them with our voice. /Stina
What kind of house do you have it might sound weird to ask but I want to do what u do so I would like to know so I can have the similar type of house thanks Oliver
We just have a small, 50m2, house for us. Running water, electricity, toilet etc but small. We want to build one more roome and renovate the bathroom and kitchen. But now during covid...we use the.money to buy dogfood. /Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA THANKS
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA You are very helful. oliver
How old do you start training
We start the young once when they are around 6-10 months...usually. /Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA THANKS

I don't understand... I would never give away my huskies... 🤣
/Matti
