Jamaican dog sled team

RIP Hootie Angel Boy on Training - Sun, November 11 2007

Mom always liked the movie about the Jamaican bobsledding team and now they have a movie about their dog sled team as well. The team is the subject of a new documentary called Sun Dogs that was released on DVD last month. The dogs are all mutts rescued from shelters-GO MUTTS!!!!! The team has been working with the Jamaican SPCA to change islanders attitudes towards animals. The movie follows the team as the enter the competitive racing circuit and attempt to bring attention to their mission. Check out more info at www.sundogsmovie.com
I have a pulling harness and have pulled kids in sleds and wagons before but nothing competitive. Maybe I'll see if the shorties want to get a team together and race.

I love pulling kids in sleds. In the winter I run in the snow.Sometimes when it's too deep I leap. Mutts are the best dogs!!!

Wow, Hootie, I had no idea you were a puller! Can we all go to Jamaica and change islanders attitudes about animals? I will volunteer to be the Mutt Ambassador, as I love all humans. On the other hand, maybe it should be a Basset Hound, so they could be the Dog Ambassetdor. ☺☺ I crack myself up!!!!!
