Arctic Games

So yesterday we were at the Arctic Games. You may ask, what exactly is that? Well , it was a super fun event where you have your dogs do a weight pull, do urban mushing, take a bike ride with your dog and many other great exercises. Husky Haven and TAMR (Texas Alaskan Malamute Rescue) worked together to bring this great event together. We also had t-shirts, a silent auction and a raffle. Most of us from Husky Haven worked the silent auction....sadly we didn't really get to bring our dogs....that was the only downside for us. We had the event in a local dog park and the day turned out to be really beautiful. It was a very unique event....don't think it's ever been done in Houston.....and hopefully it will be an annual thing. But enough of my talking.....I have a ton of pictures to give you a better idea.

  1. I had such a great time and saw so many new things. I was amazed at how quickly dogs took to the equipment and the apparatuses! It was hard to believe that most had never been exposed to it before. There were so many beautiful dogs, it was breath taking.

    I look forward to the next one!

  2. I'd say I'm sorry your Patriots didn't make it but, you'd know I was insincere :-D

    Go Seahawks! Can't wait for a Seattle/Denver Superbowl.
    It's time for Seattle to win it for the first time!!
