Dog Drop Care


Dogs that are dropped in a checkpoint for being tired or injuries receive loving care. The vets check each one carefully, tag them for the level of care required and loving volunteers tend them as they await their charter flights home.


This is a photo of the kind volunteers who ride the toboggan behind the snowmachine , cradling individual dogs enroute to their flights home. These volunteers are probably geared up with the warmest clothing as that ride out to the airstrip has some great windchills. The walk out there (as we did ) is just a bit chilly as well. It's icy and in the wind I was knocked over several times .
