On spark-sykel (kick-bike) we can go out side the tracks we are demanded, today 6 km in Gludsted Syd, an area we yoused in the early days.

Issenbjerg with the wonderful heath around, is in the behind on the 4 first pic' (500 m before the car).

Last team (Kebne - Barak) and my self tok a new way.

Last Friday we visit Kompedal and also did 5 trips (4.5 km).

The Paw-Trecker is a fine alternative to bycycling - you are out by the dogs in a hurry, if you need and secondly, it is not so easy to help the athlets (by pedals).

And best of all - good way to train leadership.

All our dogs are doing good working attitude and more or less leadership in front of the spark-sykel.

Arctic Trail's Fang

40 years ago

foto: Arctic Trail's Fang, dob, 6. november 1972, after Igloo Pak's Wing-A out of Arctic trail's Kola. His littermate Amber also went to Scandinavia.

Fang did least 5 litters in Canada, before he went to Norway in 1978.

He was imported by Karsten Grønås, kennel Vargevass and gave 4 litters to the kennel.

Karsten tells about Fang: "Teamposition, Point.

Influential offspring: Debbie, Rusla, Scotty and Tuffy

Temperament: friendly, bit standoffish, good worker, happy in hookup."

In Norway Fang least sired to importent females:

Frami and Beauty, 1979, after Peik out of Mitzi av Vargevass (sister to Blue) owner Frode Bakke, Isslottets kennel.

Frami, owner Ove Uno Stenmyr, Kongsvinger, Norway, gave among others: Panja and Clou Fox, 1981.

Beauty gave the foundation bitch, Foxy, on kennel Isslottet, Norway, in 1984.

Fang and Amber became one of the most importent littermates in the historie of siberian husky in Scandinavia. Fang did a lot of fine dogs, specialy in Norway and Amber did two good litters in Sweden, specialy the first with Zero's Dargo.

In USA Amber and Fang was bouth well known and well spoken sleddogs. Fang did among other two litters on kennel Arctic Trail, before he went to Norway.

Arctic Trail's Amber

"Den välkända kenneln - kennel Snowtrails - hade sin glansperiod under 1980-talet. I tidningen Nome-Norge, en tidning för aktiva slädhundsförare, utnämndes "greven" Ingvar de Forest till 80-talets främste slädhunsuppfödare i Norden.

Det var bl a den lyckade avelskombinationen mellan Zero's Dargo och Arctic Trail's Amber som föranledde utmärkelsen.

De fyra avkommorna Snowtrails - Crazy, Frosty, Sandy och Misty (1979) var alla suvärena ledarhundar hos toppförare i Norden."
