Currently we are looking for someone for the summer month, from May to September 2023, or even longer.
We are searching for volunteers with a positive nature, with a lot of energy and a genuine interest in working with sled dogs. We expect our volunteers to be helpful and flexible in our sometimes difficult Artic conditions, and really eager to participate in all types of work necessary.
The day starts with feeding the dogs and getting them ready for our first guest to arrive.
Our dogs are lively and strong individuals that require confident handling. The work is physically demanding and can push you sometimes to your limit, especially by bad wheather conditions. But if you learn to appreciate the eager of our dogs to run and do their job well, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing dogs and guests coming back from their tour smiling and being happy.
During guest free time we trying to keep the kennel clean and to give our dogs as much loving care as possible. They are loving and happy dogs and a very important part of our family with their individual personalities and needs.
What we can offer you during your time with us:
- to learn everything about sleddogs :)
