Dog Drop 101

One of the things that amazes those of us connected to the race year after year, of course, is how wonderfully well Iditarod sled dogs adapt to any given situation, even this one where they’ve suddenly been separated from their human, taken a plane ride with strange dogs and are now being handled by strangers. This dog came from the team of Sonny Lindner, who had to scratch early because of possible heart problems.
