  Descripción

  Are you a dog-loving adventurer looking for a truly unique opportunity? Imagine waking up each day surrounded by breathtaking wilderness, caring for a team of sled dogs, and living in a luxury off-grid home overlooking Lake Laberge (Whitehorse, Yukon).
  
  We’re seeking one incredible couple—or an exceptional individual— for an immersive experience working with our beloved sled dogs. We have 24 dogs. 23 Alaskan Huskies and 1 pit bull.
  
  11 dogs live inside with us, and 13 live outside in kennels. These dogs are our family, and we spend a lot of time with them. You will too! We are looking for a person, or couple, who loves dogs to join us.
