To celebrate the halfway point in the race (and because Aliy and the team won’t be on the trail again till tomorrow morning) we made another Dog Fan Club Draw for all our dog fans.
Congratulations to Robert Friedman who is a fan of Cayenne and Clyde fan Julie Atkinson. You both win a goodie bag of Iditarod swag plus a packet of the SP Kennel M&M’s, a glam shot of your dog and some other kennel goodies.
Cayenne is swift and vocal! Aliy calls her the ‘snot nosed brat’ because she is sassy and a little bit obnoxious, in a loveable way. She finished the YQ300 with Karolyn this season and is enjoying spring mushing with her brother Champ and other mates back at the kennel.
Clyde is one of the elder statesmen of the kennel and came 4th in the Yukon Quest this year, finishing strongly and happily in the middle of the team. He has achieved more than most, and two of his sons: Rodney and Five are currently in Cripple with their team mates on the Iditarod.
To find out more about our athletes look at the “Dogs” page. To join the Dog Fan Club you can hit the “Become a Dog Fan” tab at the top of the page or click here. We will have a Fan Club Draws throughout the Iditarod and to end the season.
Sorry for not posting on this yet – but of course, a big WOOF WOOF WOOF to lucky winners and lucky doggies!!!
And an extra WOOF WOOF to Clyde and Cayenne
