We are back at the Daaquam center and Brian and Greg are waxing all the skis downstairs. We will test and compare all of them and choose our race wax when we are done. We will also do an inspection of the trail and get the dogs fed early. Later tonight we will find out the start order for tomorrow`s 6 dog race. We`ll figure out the rest of the details after the draw. I`m doing alot of deep breathing and staying focused on the race. The dogs are feeling very happy this morning , it`s only about -14 c so I guess that`s about 5 above or so, the sun is out and looks like it`s going to be a nice day. The sun comes up pretty early here,but it also goes down early as well. 6:30 am and it`s bright out side. 4:30 pm and its getting dark. And we are 4 hours ahead of home so it`s 10am here now and you all are just waking up back home.
Can`t wait till tomorrow!!!!

About us
About Us ~
Our kennel is made up of hound / AK husky cross sprint race sled dogs. We are based out of Fairbanks and race around the great state of Alaska. We are a world class kennel that takes the sport of dog mushing very seriously.
Both of us, Jennifer Probert-Erhart and Carl Erhart, are Athabascan Natives from interior Alaska. Carl grew up in Tanana and Jennifer in Tok/Tanacross. Our history in the sport goes back many generations. The Probert, Denny, Ehart and Woods families combined have countless hours and miles on the back of a dog sled and we are blessed to come from such a talanted, amazing and gifted group of people. The stories, advice and information that we get from our family is not only interesting but critical to the success of our kennel. Carrying on not only a family tradition, but a sport that was a way of life for our Athatbascan people is a great honor for both of us.
Currently we compete primarily in the limited class races but plan on running more open class races. Our dreams of running the "big ones" meaning the Open North American and the Rondy are getting closer and closer to being a reality. Our kids also compete in the junior races and our parents still play an active role in the kennel.
We invite you to follow along as we prepare the dogs for raceing, travel around the state to compete in the races and share the ups and downs of the wonderful, exciting sport of sprint dog mushing.
We are looking for sponsors to help with the cost of food, vet care and travel expenses. For more information about becoming a sponsor please contact us directly at prodogkennel@gmail.com
Thank you for taking your time to spend with us!

Remember Just breath and the rest will follow. I am Kinda getting a little nervous and excited for you. I was wondering if they are streaming this over the internet like they do here, if you know let me know. It also seems like the trails are a lot more rougher than AK-sounds like we're a bit spoiled with good snow. Good luck and I hope you have a good clean run!!!!

Hi Probert,
Just wanted to let you know that no check from your renters has shown up yet. I don't know when your morgage is due or how much it is, but I could possibly deposit money to cover until you get the renters check. Just let me know and I have been having fun checking in with your site! You go girl!!! Tracy
