Nubbins | Alert Huskie Jake was one of the smartest and gentlest dogs I’ve ever met. The AF DC 135mm f2D lens allows for very specific depth of field control. Notice the eyes, ears, and paws are in sharp focus with the nose in soft focus. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.

Winter Scape | Let’s go, Huskies! Dogsled rides are popular in northern Illinois. Huskies take naturally to sledding. Only the lead dogs and the wheel dog had sledded together prior to this gathering. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.

Nikon 1 V1 Potpourri | Husky Dogsled Huskies love the snow. They love to run and play in the snow. They would rather be outside running, playing, working, or just taking a nap in the snow than anything else, except possibly eating. As natural sled pullers, Huskies instinctively know they should pull the sled with other Huskies in their new pack. When the harnessed dogs are being attached to the sled, they are very excited; barking, jumping, and talking “Husky”. As soon the musher calls “mush”, the dogs all become quiet and start pulling the sled. As soon as the sled stops, they go back to barking and howling. Several dogs in this team were newcomers to dog sledding. With fresh snow falling, the trail had not been groomed like they typically are for races so the dogs had to break a new trail in the snow.

The Back Story Each year in January or February, the Free Spirit Siberian Rescue organization hosts a Husky Dogsled event in northern Illinois, with Huskies galore. Rescued Huskies coming to the event can run as part of a dogsled team. As natural sled pullers, Huskies instinctively know they should pull the sled with other Huskies in their new pack. When the harnessed dogs are being attached to the sled, they are very excited; barking, jumping, and talking “Husky”. As soon the musher calls “mush”, the dogs all become quiet and start pulling the sled. As soon as the sled stops, they go back to barking and howling.
