Information and pricing on Peace Pups dogsled presentations:
I am available for dogsledding demonstrations at schools, parties or other gatherings. One option for schools is that I come with the dog truck; a group of my Siberian Huskies and two sleds. I unload and introduce all of the dogs and they stay at the truck for petting. Our dogs are very friendly and love attention! If there are more than fifteen students they should be split into smaller groups so it is not over whelming for the dogs. I discuss the various northern breeds and their differences, care and feeding, training, sleds and sled construction, lines and harnesses, team positions, skijoring, command training, fitness training, and go over the different race and recreational options for mushers. I have human gang lines so students can form a human team and take turns pulling a musher of their choice around a small course at your school. It is not usually possible to provide rides for a group of more than six unless you have a good trail or come to our location but the sled pulling by students gives them a way to be active outside and see what it is like to work as a team as the dogs have to do. They learn that they have to watch out for the other team members, if one falls they all have to stop, they can only go as fast as the slowest person on the team. The dogs just love watching someone else do the work while they hang out and observe. I have a mobile digital slide show that I can bring if you have a location for an indoor presentation. I have done assembly presentations for audiences up to 250 students. Both presentations run about an hour. I prefer the outdoor meet and greet with the dog truck because all of the dogs can participate and it is a great opportunity to get the students to get outside for some fresh air.Pricing:
School presentations are $100.00 per hour.
We offer special ride pricing for students of $5.00 each.
NOTE: This on top of the presentation fee and is a abrievated ride.
