During the winter i spend my time racing my dogs, due to losing one from a terrible brain disease last year i was left without a team to run so spent my time photographing the events.

We have 4 main types of dog that run, The Siberian Husky is the most popular, then the Alaskan Malamute, the Samoyed and the Canadian Eskimo/Greenland Dog :)

I travel all over the country with the dogs and even traveled up to Aviemore this year (600 miles from me)

Sorry for posting so many pictures, it has been a busy season for me LOL

Thank you everyone :D

They really do love working, Mina is such a calm girl but as soon as i get her harness out of the cupboard she goes mental and starts doing laps around the room!

This is some video of Mina and Kimo running with me at Wareham Forest in December.
