It's summer time - a time when the dogs get to relax and enjoy a little time
off at the beach. Summer temperatures
in Maryland are generally too warm and
humid to train (ever tried running in
a fur coat?), so the team generally gets
to sleep in from May until September.
Maryland Sled Dog Adventures LLC
is available for presentations and other
selected activities during the summer
months.
Breaking News! We are
now taking reservations for the 2008 -
2009 dog sledding season. If our dog sledding
programs sound like something you might
be interested in, don't delay. Book now!
Attention Girl Scout Leaders:
Are you a girl scout troop leader looking

scouts, please email Catherine
to arrange for your troop's dog sledding
program. Don't delay! We already have

So I'm sure by now you are thinking:
This is Maryland, what if there is no snow? Temperatures
permitting, even when there is no snow, we can
still go. When not running on snow, which is much
of the time here in central Maryland, we dog sled
using our three wheel and four wheel dog
sled rigs (click for picture). In mushing,
a wheeled cart used for dog sledding when there
is no snow is called a "rig" or a "gig." Our larger
rig allows us to carry a passenger seated on dog
sledding tours and dog sled rides. The larger
rig can be seen in our dog
sledding gallery, which has pictures from
recent programs. |
