Description
We are a husky farm near the baltic sea, we speak english, french, finnish and we are creating a new site. Our life, like the volunteers life iscleaning the kennels and parks, giving them water, feeding them, but also and above all spending time with them, they need it.
Our life is in the middle of the nature, and our way of life, is inspired by Nature, driven by passion.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live in a small town, where the atmosphere is friendly and exchanges with our farmer neighbors take place during the summer. At the farm, we eat our meals together, which allows us to talk during the evenings which are quite long at this time of year, it's the midnight sun. We are a family immersed in two cultures, Finnish and Celtic, which are not so far removed from each other. Learning and living with our traditions is the basis of our life, with a crucial point: our dogs are also our family; they always come before us.

Help
We are opening another site further east, where another finnish staff is working, but we need help on my farm to manage our dogs. I will be all the time with the volunteers for explaining the dogs, their caracteers and lifestyle. Many of our dogs are rescue dogs, they have sometimes had a sad life before to join us and find with us the atmosphere and life of sled dogs. Our priority is their well-being and their mood. This work will be paied 10€/hour, accomodation is offered.
