The dogs are ADORABLE!
I have experience over there one time last 4 years. It was a very good memories.
I love these dogs
How is that one lady wearing short sleeves!! She seems just as adapted to the cold as the pups
Its summer time. Its a glacier so theres ice all year around, its probably not as cold as it looks, especially if you were there all winter. IDK exactly how that kennel works.
Alot of these glacier touring dogs don't live up there year round from what i understand. Some of these kennels up there are seasonal. This one looks like a camp.
I don't think dog mushing is inhumane, but alot of these touring kennels over lap with racing. I DO think dog sled RACING should be illegal. If you own a bunch of racing dogs, its in your best interest for them to run through the off season. So they get shipped up to the glacier to pull touring sleds. Its also how some people train their younger dogs, throw them in a touring group with a bunch of older slower dogs, let them figure it out.
I feel like if the racing was less of a thing, alot of these glacier tours would shift to indigenous mushers instead of these racing yokels from the mainland. It seems like it would be a good source of income for those communities. There really isn't a ton of opportunity in the arctic lol. Why are most sled dogs tours done by rich white people into racing? Seems off.
And native mushers can't compete with people in the mainland, they have better access to dogs, dog food, cheaper fuel, etc. If there is a race in Kotzebue or somewhere. A local won't win. They can't compete with these dedicated racing guys. Its so one-sided lol. Dog sled racing is BASICALLY pay-to-win. For the most part.
*i work in dog sled racing I wrote this reddit about it if you want to learn more www.reddit.com/r/dogs/comments/japt8w/discussion_so_i_work_in_sled_dog_racing/?context=3
Good experience
Yes, thank you
Aww this is so cute and so wow I would love to do this😂
love it
My wife and I visited Skagway and Denver Glacier last week. It was a wonderful experience and the ride to and from the camp on the helicopter was fantastic. Even though we were on the glacier the air temperature hovered around 70 degrees. It was comfortable with just layers, although shirt sleeves would have been fine.
dwwjr Thanks for the weather report on glacier. We will be in Alaska on 8/12/2015 and this is the high-light of my trip.
O! Alaska I want there before. But I never go to this part of Alaska! Is beautiful n lovely 🐕🐕🐕 the music make me so happy😍🤗😀😃😉😊😋☺️😄
So cute
Wow
Beautiful experience! Thanks for sharing!!
Merci à vous pour celle belle randonnée sur ces vastes étendues de glace.
Glacier running, looks like a lot of fun!
I would love it if they had bigger dog houses. but what you do makes me wanna do it to.
+Bug Queen They have small dog houses to keep them warm in cold weather.
Their bodies put off alot of heat, smaller spaces heat up faster.
Most of them don't use the houses anyway, they dig holes in the ground and lay there. They are built for weather much colder than that.
It reminds me of the movie, 8 below
Fishraid
my puppy walks up the street like the poor wee lone dog at the back she is crazy keeps scraping her paws a will need to move to somewhere with lots of snow :D
i love this video ! thanks for sharing, i play it every once in a while for me and my friends; the adventure and travel are awesome ! we love dogs !
How many dogs did you use for sledding?
Thanks for sharing this! those dogs are adorable and landscape is beautiful
Hi 🙋♂️
Look at background wow dont see that everday...
Why is one of the dogs tied in a ways back from the rest of the pack? (Complete n00b here) Beautiful dogs. Fascinating way to travel!
The dog had problems hanging with other dogs so he had to be separated. There's a line in the film where a dog handler says that.
+imagekandi Ahhh... thank you. :)

Привет.Красиво.Лайкнул.
Интересный факт: нам это видео скинул учитель (я в США 🇺🇸)
Sogs doing what they love to do best , pulling...
When they leave the dogs it’s so sad because they’re all barking
Do the dogs like this?
Dalton H Yes, they love it! For them running together in a group is the most exciting and fun time. These are very big, extremely powerful dogs perfectly adapted to this lifestyle. They love snow, they love physical activity and they love to feel purpose and be useful to people.
Ive been on that glacier and done this
1:53 - hurry dudes!!! We want to pull hard.
Skagway Alaska
Do long ago
So do those dogs live in those small "houses" ?
This is summer camp and the dogs stay in the small "houses" for a few months each year. It keeps them warm and safe. In the end of the summer camp dogs are being taken by their owners to their homes all over the Alaska state.
I think this calls for a Go Pro.
How did you get there
By helicopter from Skagway, Alaska.
Is this in juneau?
This is in Skagway Alaska, Juneau has a similar experience.
@@imagekandi Same place. I remember the type of helicoptor I took.
these poor poor dogs in little dog houses out in the cold
Why doesn't she have a coat on
+swaggerboy740 yeah. WERE A COAT!
This is in July and the temperatures are very comfortable 70 F/21C when the weather is good. Local guides are well adapted to this environment. The warm outerwear provided by the tour company and the tourists are dressed up warm because they do not know what to expect, and everyone's tolerance to cold is different.
it’s Summer.
@@nguyenthiphuonganh wow summer but still have snow
cherry Heo yes, the Summer is just warmer, it doesn’t mean the snow would be completely melted. Even in Colorado where I live, we had snow in July one time.
you know what
P
i ht thi
Pour dog's
Carlos Moreno Pour them what?
Why, they are happy being outdoor. Most of American dogs and cats are imprisoned in the house. Do you think it’s good for them?
these poor poor dogs in little dog houses out in the cold
Stupid, they are not cold. Anyway, a lot of homeless people even don’t have a small house to live in. I hate how Americans always think they are the best by keeping their poor pets in the house.
@@nguyenthiphuonganh I don't think mushing is inhumane. But these huge numbers of dogs and BS mainly stems from dog sled racing culture. Alot of these dogs that get sent to the glacier over summer are racing dogs. Other wise they are just sitting around costing you money. Send them to the glacier to earn their keep and stay in shape during the off season. Even a busy touring kennel doesn't TRULY need this many dogs. I think dog sled RACING should be illegal.
Why are all these touring kennels owned by rich white people from the mainland anyway? Glacier tours seem like theyd be a GREAT source of income for these native communities. Not a ton of opportunity in the arctic.
keeping 200 dogs on chains is a product of the industrial revolution. It would be costly AF and basically impossible to keep 200 dogs like this 100 years ago.
