At home with Canadian sled dogs.

There was an item on the BBC News website that I saw over the weekend that prompted me to do a YouTube search for the film clip. This is what I read on the BBC website:

Until the 1970s, it was impossible to travel around Canada’s Yellowknife region in the winter if you weren’t travelling by dogsled.

Even though transportation options have increased, sled dogs are still prized and prominent in this Arctic region.

Matt Danzico of BBC Pop Up was invited to visit with some sled dogs during the team’s trip to Canada.

Unsurprisingly, that BBC video wasn’t available on YouTube.  But I did find this:
