Highlights

Take a glimpse into the traditional life of a sleddog in Interior Alaska. The lineage of these dogs traces back to when the first Native Alaskans/Inuit people inhabited the Arctic. We also have dogs from the Canadian/Greenland Arctic regions and promote the subsistence lifestyle of those Arctic cultures. These dogs will show you what they have been born and bred to do as pack animals, while we have been stewards of their care for the past centuries, maintaining this heritage. Witness the outright enthusiasm these dogs have for doing what they love!

About Fairbanks

Fairbanks, in Alaska's interior, is a river town on the Chena, a gateway to the Arctic with long summer days, winter auroras and gold-rush history.

Fairbanks lies in the broad Tanana Valley of interior Alaska, on the Chena River, roughly 200 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle. It began as a trading post in 1901 and boomed after gold was found nearby in 1902; its mining past is shown at Pioneer Park, with its old buildings and sternwheeler. The University of Alaska Fairbanks is home to the Museum of the North, with Alaska Native art and natural history.
