Peacepups Dog Sledding: Vermont Dogsled rides and Bicycle Tours
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- I am a local Vermont resident and have lived in the Central Vermont area for twenty eight years. I live in Elmore Vermont with my wife, step son, two cats and a few Siberian Huskies. I have been biking regularly since I bought my first Specialized Stumpjumper in 1985 at the beginning of the mountain bike revolution. I have since discovered the joy of road biking as well and love riding the quiet paved roads of Vermont. When the snow melts and things quiet in the dog yard I dust off my bikes and try to keep myself in good enough shape to keep up with the dogs! I got my first Siberian husky in 2001 and have since added several more to my kennel. With the trend being toward Alaskan Huskies and hounds for racing I have decided to stick with Siberians because we just seem to get along personality wise.
Peace Pups Dog Sledding is a small company located in the Worcester Mountains of Vermont. We maintain a kennel of around 20 Siberian huskies. We offer a wide range of dog powered activities from our popular sled rides and fall cart rides to dog scooter lessons and skijor lessons. These lessons can be taken using your own dog or one of ours. If you have a dog we will get you started on the right track with training and send you home with the information you need to continue improving on your own. The main focus of our business is positive sustainability. We donate ten percent of our profits to organizations working for world peace. Just a small way of working locally doing something we love and hopefully having a positive impact on the world as a whole. We also enjoy the opportunity of exposing the public to the sport of dogsledding and demonstrating how much fun these amazing dogs have working. It is a perfect way to show how quality dog care can result in happy, healthy dogs. Of course sustainability also means the ability for us to pay for and care for this many dogs which is where the tours come in. It allows us to adopt dogs that may not be cutting it in the racing world and give them a job that they love. With out the business we would not be able to have these dogs and provide them with the high level of care that we do.
