sled the injured man.
No other dog had ever been able
to lead his team in seven successive
races across the 418-mile course of
the Alaska sweepstakes.
The malmute puppy pet of a
small boy, he was sold into the dog
racing stables of Darling & Allen,
once of Nome, to become the great

There are known to be 400 sorts when
