Mush Your Own Sled Dog Team (Summer/Fall Tour)

Overview

This is the only place in Alaska where you can mush your own team of dogs in the summer!

This is not a just a tour kennel; it is the training grounds and homestead of 4-time Iditarod champion, Dallas Seavey. All the dogs are either retired racing dogs (many have won the Iditarod), are currently on the race team, or are the next generation in training to become the next great champions! Our dogs are active and training year-round. As a guest musher here, you become part of Dallas Seavey Racing's year-round training program.

The group size for this experience is usually 6 or less people, with a guide assigned to each group, creating a very personal experience.

All of our dogs are extremely friendly, and love attention. Cuddle puppies, romp with young dogs, or walk with champions.

We had a great time mushing with our dog team. We had a 3 time iditarod champion, Gamble, leading the team. We played with new pups and got to see a litter of brand new pups. You will enjoy this activity. I recommend this for an activity on your AK vacay.

Gamble he's a special one. Thanks for joining us and helping socialize those new puppies.

We did the summer dryland mushing experience on a 50-degree Fahrenheit day in the driving rain, through knee-deep mud, and still loved every minute of it! We didn't really know anything about the Iditarod before going, but had so much fun meeting the dogs, playing with the puppies, and then the highlight was absolutely the mushing. It wasn't physically difficult at all, as I'd worried, and seemed to be fun for both riders and drivers. (We were there with minor kids, so the parents drove both ways and the kids rode both ways, instead of switching off.) We very much appreciated that they provide boots in a variety of sizes. This isn't something I'd necessarily do multiple times, but I absolutely recommend it! It was one of the favorite things we did during a 2-week Alaska trip full of amazing experiences.

We had an amazing experience with this company . We are a family ranging from 9-67 years old and each one of us truly enjoyed being part of mushing our own dog sled . We would highly recommend this company because they bent over backwards to ensure we had a great time. Thank to the whole team !!
