06.03.10 - Bjørn is still holding the #1 position, doubling his very small lead on Terje Mathiesen from yesterday and Marte just a "dog switch" behind, so no time for mistakes or bad judgement tomorrow! No pics from today, the handler was very nervous at the finish line ;-)

05.03.10 - After the first day of SOC, Bjørn has a very marginal lead on Terje Mathiesen with Marte Heilemann just seconds behind! It is going to be a thriller weekend for sure ;-) Pics here.

03.03.10 - Com has given birth! More info here - with first pics!

28.02.10 - Com is getting bigger by the minute it seems, it's hard to remember from last time but we think she's a lot bigger.. New pics of todays swimming practise here!

23.02.10 - Com is definately in whelp, we could feel several puppies today!

14.02.10 - Silver medal in the Norwegian Championship! Pics here, raceresults here.

13.02.10 - Bjørn is in second place after day one of the Norwegian Championship, 3.26 behind Øystein Varhaugvik and with Lena Haugen in third place, 12min+ something behind Øystein. The team consists of Puma+Freia, Idun+Dawn and Toro+Indy. Puma wasn't running like her usual self today, we're not sure why and haven't decided whether to let her join or rest tomorrow. I'm happy to tell that Blondie is back with us at the kennel, to be Irish' partner in the leaddog position with Kamilla this season. Toby is a bit too wild and big and pushy for Irish to handle at this point ;-)

08.02.10 - Not much to tell, we're preparing for the NC this weekend, some slightly injured dogs, Irish is doing great and has had quite a lot of sledrides with Toby the braque as her leaddog partner, Com is very pregnant and Minnie is trying to convince us to put her on the racing team already this season ;-)

10.01.10 - Second trip with Irish today, pics here!

09.01.10 - I have had my first sledride this winter, with Com, Minnie, Toby and Dhamira at first, then I switched Dhamira with Irish for the last lap ;-) I'm extremely happy that not only did Irish pull like an experienced sleddog, without any trassle or hesitation at all, but Minnie, our one-year-old ran in lead with the same intensity and focus as she has further back in the team - AND she could stand still in front waiting, without a sound!!! This is really a future hope, and I'm afraid we have to fight over her, Bjørn and me...

07.01.10 - Updated on the team, and raceresults from Hundekjørerfestivalen.

03.01.10 - Bjørn won LMD, more info and pics here! Com is bred to Fun Racing Brimi, his offspring from this combination in 2008 - Freia, Idun and Toro were on the team this weekend, and Nora would too, but she got cut in the paw in the dogyard a few days ago. Look at Litters page for more info.

02.01.10 - In the first race of the season (and the year!), Bjørn is currently in lead, some seven minutes ahead of Jan Roger Norup and Lena Haugen as # three.

30.12.09 - Finally some updates after a long time of silence! Our great leaddog and producer Com has come into heat just in time to mate her at Hamar, when we can pick sire from a vast number of great leaddogs from all around ;-) More info about her previous litter here, more info will come when the decicion has been made!

04.10.09 - New frontpic of Irish and some pics of Irish with Su and the dogs here!

07.09.09 - The Superbikes have now moved to their new homes, except Irish, who stays here. Updated the team page.

26.04.09 - Updated the racedog page with our present team, some pics and a few words about Baileys.

10.04.09 - There will be no puppies from Baileys as she died peacefully in her house sometime during the night. We miss her sorely and grief both her and the unborn pups we longed for.

31.03.09 - Baileys and Brille succesfully mated 2. and 3. of April! More info here!

15.03.09 - Kamilla has raced Seppala race this weekend, well, almost raced the Seppala race ;-) Since the sled broke between 1/3 and 1/2 into the race, I had to scratch as I couldn't manouvre it at all. On the team was Dawn and Com in lead, Puma and Twist in point and Pluto and Kiwi (lent from Terje Mathisen, thanks Terje!) in wheel. It was a really fun race, very demanding and very varied and well organised!

01.03.09 - Bjørn and the dogs are Norwegian Champions!! More here. Info about the race and team here.

28.02.09 - Positions have changed after day two, now Lena Haugen is in lead, one and a half minute before Terje Mathisen with Bjørn only seven seconds behind him! It will be an exciting day three with a lot of chasing ;-) Results here.

27.02.09 - After the first day of the Norwegian Championship, Bjørn is app. three minutes behind Terje Mathisen and two minutes behind Lena Haugen. More here.

17.02.09 - We had another lovely trip on Langen today, this time with Baileys and Tarzan in lead and the two RR's in wheel. Sunniva loves it, and the dogs too!

11.01.09 - Sunniva has had her first real sledride today, super thanks to my prescious Baileys who led us safely, together with Dhamira the Ridgeback! Iza the Ridgeback and Baileys' grandson Tarzan also did a good job, Tarzan did a great job actually ;-) Sunniva sat on my back in a mei tai made of a sheeps skin, inside a warm jacket especially made for carrying babies so it has an opening for her head in the back. She was very excited, when we stopped she would make leg movements back and forth in order to start the ride again. No wonder that's exactly how one makes a horse go forward!

09.02.09 - Some updates on the racedogs.

05.02.09 - Updated the litterpage with very exciting upcoming litter!

The homepage is rebuilt so that the huskypages have a menu of it's own and all pages are administrated by the new menuline below. Enjoy!
