The British Siberian Husky Page
This is only a small page in the bigger book of Siberian Huskies
on the net. This page is dedicated for dogs within the UK. I will be
adding new pictures regularly, but at least this is a start !!
We (Sarah and J-M, being me) have a small kennel over here in the UK.
We do actually race, despite the lack of snow and use rigs to race
with. In previous years we've done pretty good, winning the British
Championships in 93 & 94. I have also raced in the World
Championships and finished 11th in 94 in the 6 dog class. I guess
there must be around 150-200 teams who compete during the season with
maybe 50-75 teams who compete on a regular basis. The sport has
really developed in recent years and top teams are now averaging
18-20 mph at sprint races. Enough yacking, if you're interested and
want to know more mail us !
Back to front page
and more mushing links.
Me breaking trail at Birmingham Football Club's Ground !! ( It was
a Coca Cola promo shot ).
Mike Bradbury, current UK 6 dog champion, on the trail
in Glenisla, Scotland.
A nice arty shot of a couple of dogs of ours, Numen on
the right, Shermann in the middle and Jaxom in the background.
Shermann again after winning a race a few years ago.
Shermann was one of my leaders, but I have my doubts if he's going to
make the pace this year up front. Sorry Shermann !!! and the one with
the long hair is me !!!
Mike Bradbury at Glenisla again, with a couple of Zero
dogs running up front
Jaxom - Who suffered a slipped disc last summer (95)
and we were told that he would never run again. No one told him
though and through some intensive physio and laser treatment he's
made a full recovery. A great gee/haw leader This is the dog who will
give you his gee paw and then his haw paw when asked, great photo
opportunity at the start of races !!! Tragically we lost Jaxom in
March 97 to a complication with a prostate condition ( the vets ****
up ).
An early morning training run with Jaxom and Shermann a
blur of excitement !!!
