The Iditarod trail is a trail where dogs run in a race. Their are mushers which help guide the dogs and give them encouragement to keep going. The mushers have to go through the whole trail without going back home. They also take breaks so that they can let the dogs rest and them too!

I didn't know that teenagers can participate in dogsled races.

Dogs can get mistaken for the trail and take the wrong one and may be need to be rescued.

A musher is a person who is the leader of the dogs and the sled. The musher is the person in charge and the one who control's the sled so nothing bad happens. So if one of the dogs get lost or something bad happens to them, the musher will help the dogs so they don't get injured.

I always wanted a dog or a cat but I can't get one since I am moving to China. I will get any pet I want in China. I can't get one here because if my family and I move, then my pet, that has a strong relationship with me, will have to be left with someone else since pets can't go on planes.

I had a dog named Paisley and one day he went into the street and a car ran him over but he was so small that the car went over him and didn't even touch him so he was ok!

Their are stops where the dogs can stop to eat, sleep or rest. The mushers have to put the dogs before themselves. They cannot eat until they get to the end of the trail, Nome.

A musher is a person who takes a few dogs that go on a snowy trail to run and win the race. The dogs are usually loyal and nice to their musher, or partner, or anything you think it is. The mushers use a lot of strength to do mushing so we need to appreciate them for giving us such a big show of mushing in the snow!
