The handler's father came to pick me and my daughter up on snowmobile, while my hubby and son stayed with the dogs.

There were some people who cared about the animals, but there were many who just pushed them past their endurance. <br /><br />Hey Kathy, One of the places Jack London lived in the Sonoma Vally in CA wasn't very far from my aunt's and we visited it when I was in grade school. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing and stopping in Andrea!<br /><br />Thanks, Kary. We have kids who live in Alaska so we've made several trips.<br /><br />Hi Jennifer. I hope you enjoy the book!<br /><br />Sharon, true huskies are very cute. During the gold rush any type of dog that was big enough to pull was used. <br /><br />Hi Melissa! I agree, some people had good intentions but there are always people who "use" animals and don't think about them as being a living thing. <br /><br />Thanks Christine!

They are wanting to have a slaughter house for horses in our area to sell the meat overseas.
