Congrats to our winners Mollie Boardman who is a fan of Ginger, Beth & Mike Metcalf who are fans of M, Marilynn Davis who is a fan of Daisy and Amber fan Marji Venden. You have all won today’s random Dog Fan Club Draw. Coincidently all four of these dogs are from Allen’s Iditarod Black Team! All but Ginger are currently waiting (rather impatiently, I imagine) to hop a flight home.
Ginger’s season culminated in being chosen for Allen’s JV Iditarod team although unfortunately the soft and punchy trail caused her to returned home at Finger Lake. She is back at the kennel now having experienced a host of new and exciting things including an Iditarod start, a plane ride and Barbara’s couch.
M was a newcomer to our kennel over the summer and she proved to be a strong and steady dog. She made Allen’s Iditarod team and ran 650 miles to Kaltag before the team ended their race there.
Sisters Daisy and Amber helped lead the team for 650 miles. Daisy was an Iditarod rookie and although she did not make it to Nome, will still be credited with making the team. She is a strong dog and very sweet. Lovely Amber is a veteran having seen Nome twice before. She will take the layover in Kaltag in her stride.
Our winners all receive a signed copy of the 2018 Iditarod Race Guide plus an Iditarod patch. We’ll get that out to you once we are home from Nome.

Glad to hear the decision on when and how the Black Team 13 will be transported, and so very happy to hear Allen will make it to Nome for celebrating Aliy’s completion of this really tough ID!!!
Congrats to the winners of the dog fan club draw. You are fans of some amazing dogs. They had a great race to Kaltag learning a lot for next year’s race. Great job Black Team.
Congrats to all the winners! Look forward to the re-cap of how each dog performed.
Great dogs and the new member “M”.
Oh, Oh. Ginger has been introduced to a whole new world – “Can’t keep him down on the farm when they’ve seen gay Paris!”
..
Maybe you can entice continued stellar performance by promises of regular couch visit.
Congrats to the fan club winners….enjoy your prizes! Those are some AWESOME pups!
Congratulations winners! All four of these dogs are impressive with a great future ahead of them. I’m especially happy to see that M has made herself at home so quickly.
Prayers for a safe return of all the precious cargo (beloved dawgs) waiting in Kaltag.
