  Description

  We are an adult couple with adult children and grandchildren. Anne works in a hospital Trust and Trond is partially retired. We do competitive dog sledding sports and winter expeditions with our Alaska huskies. In the summer we train the dogs when it is cold enough, specially the leaders, we cycle, take walkes and we care for and train the puppies and young ones. We wish to host workawayers who are interested in outdoors activities with sled dogs. In the summer season we do maintenance in the dog yards and around the houses. We do fun trips and dog sledding competitions during the winter. Our workawayers will only help with competition dogs, puppies and young ones, not with tasks relating to guided tours with paying customers.
  Our dogs are social, and in the summer they need and love to do things that are fun together with us. In winter time it is hard training for them and us. We live with the dogs close by, and have all gear needed - like sleds, skis, carts,, ATV, vehicles etc. We have cabins both in the wood and in the mountain where it is possible to have great hikes. We prefer people who can stay for at least a month, since it takes a little while to get to know the dogs and the routines.
