I just received an email telling me that Happy has become quite a celebrity in the Iditarod race forums, and asking for an update! That’s really great, and I’m sure Happy will be very happy to hear it!
As far we know, Happy is indeed still out on the Trail with Allen and going strong! We know four of his five dropped dogs — Heeler, Kipper, Quito and now Beemer — and we think we know the fifth is Huey… But we don’t know for sure! So, let’s all think “Happy” thoughts and get her into Nome! (And, yes, I’m still puckering up!)
“The Happy Story” has worked it’s way off the front page, so here is a link directly to it! Also, you can find the Happy forum links here!
Go Happy!
Man, that silly girl Happy is famous now! I love it!
Go Happy.
You will never know it but you have made it to the big time.
Woo-hoo Thanks for the update! we’re all cheering on Happy- the newchampion of “happy” dogs everywhere!!!
Happy looks as if she is thinking…”so this is why the other dogs aren’t so care-free, I’ll have to think about decorum when we get back!”
What a great story.. I have been checking back everyday for updates on “Happy”, since I first read “The Happy Story”… What a great dog and a great inspiration.. All of the dogs of the Iditarod are great and deserve every bit of attention, admiration, respect and love they can get… Wouldn’t have a race without these champions. From the first dog across the finish line to the last dog across the finish line – Wow!!!!!
Happy,
Please go all the way.
You will will show that not all idiots are incapable. You just need to be shown the direction and given the instructions.
GO, HAPPY GO!!

Thnk you so much for all the updates… The Happy threads are going strong in the Iditarod forums.What an inspiration she is turning out to be. Love all the hero-dogs, but am a mush (no pun intended) for an underdog story!!
Go Happy , Allen, & the rest of the team…Congrats to Aliy!!!
