WINTER EXCITEMENTSkijoring is an
exhilarating and fast growing winter sport which combines cross country
skiing and dog mushing. Originating in Scandinavia and literally
meaning "ski-driving" in Norwegian.
Skijoring allows you and your dog to exercise together while enjoying the
great outdoors. Imagine yourself on a beautiful winter's day gliding
behind your canine best friend on a tree lined trail.
Part of skijoring's beauty lies in its simplicity and minimal equipment
requirements. Besides basic cross country ski gear, only three items
are necessary to skijor: a harness for your dog; a skijoring belt for your
waist; and a towline that connects you to your dog.
