"Uncle WiFi Is In The Iditerod!"


Mar. 15, 2012

Indeed, the uncle of this local litter is currently competing in the annual 1,000-mile Iditarod race in Alaska and Canada as a member of musher Karen Ramstead's team of pure breed Siberian huskies. The brother of WiFi and the "dad" to these pups is Slider, owned by Linda and Mike Herdering of Husky Power Dogsledding in Accident. According to the Herderings, there are only one or two teams of pure breed Siberian huskies (known as "pretty sled dogs") because the Alaskan husky is faster.

Ramstead says she runs the Siberian team not to win, but to prove that show dogs can also perform and succeed in an athletic competition. As of yesterday afternoon, Ramstead and her team had just left the checkpoint of Shaktoolik. Thirteen teams had finished the race, and 40 were still racing. The four Siberian pups above are not only four completely different colors, but they sport four completely different eye pairings. The differences in deep Siberian coloring (red, black, blonde, and grey) prompted the Herderings to name them "The Metal Litter." From left are Copper, Steelie, Goldie, and
Silver.
