What an amazing picture. I checked out your web site and saw some of the other pictures! AMAZING!!!!

They look awesome!!...Welcome to B.P.'s!!!...I have always liked that artic breeds if that is the correct termonology... I plan on sledding with my two too but on a much smaller scale...My kids need some help on their sleds because our yard is so flat...lol...I also would like to cart train them & enter them in town parades...I have the diagram for a lightweight pulling cart for them to start on...Any ideas, info. or advice for me?...Ty!

That is so cool! I love all of the different kinds of things everyone is involved in with their dogs. We learn so much.
Anyway, I too checked out your website and it is great. I love the Meet the team page. Just wondering... where do they sleep? So many of them is more than just a handful! :)

i want to go on an expedition.... is there a Big Paws Only member discount??
-
Hi Joe, welcome to BPO! Your team looks really nice and it must be so cool to have such a large fur-family :)
-
thanks for the welcome and the pics everyone! Been gone awhile, Yes, I have kinda of a big family of 22 mals and a few huskys, these guys are great, I live 30 miles south off the arctic coast in Alaska, pure dog country. They love every minute of it (sledding). and yes there is a discount for all Big Paws members on my trips. Thanks again for the welcome!!

Cool!...I'm curious...what's the difference in temperment between Mals & Huskies?
-
The difference in the temperaments are quite a bit, the Mals are a calm laid back dog, compared to most huskies which are kinda hyper, especially when pups, I know there are alot of exceptions. the huskies were bred to either race or run fast as the mals were bred for strength. and a slower pace since most eskimo teams only consisted of around 3 dogs. The mals seem to be born a people freindly dog, probably because they were used as a family dog also. The Alaskan huskies have some mal blood in them but they were basically bred down in size in the 1930's when racing started to become popular.
-
Ty for the info.!!...Your dogs are gorgeous!...There were a couple of Huskies at the "swim with your dog" event at the public pool last night...I love those eyes!
-
Those are awesome pictures! I have to admit that I love seeing Malamute and Sibe teams to Alaskans (shh, don't tell my guys). Mals and Sibes are so beautiful and they look suited to the enviornment perfectly.
-
Wow, you have a pretty big team. They look great, and I'm sure that they do have alot of fun, as that is what they were born to do.

The only thing I can say is absolutely georgous! We have a mal that will be 7 mos on the 18th and we love her. I would love to take one of your trips. Your dogs look so happy! ;D
