Sport and Achievements

Our dogs work with us. Here we show what we do together: racing, exams, water rescue and more.

Mushing and races

We are out and about either jogging, cycling or with the sled in the snow. You can find videos of it on TikTok.

Water rescue

Confidence, swimming skills and lifesaving techniques.

We mainly do water rescue because we think it is a great summer alternative for giving a dog enough exercise.

We are ready for the exam, but because of Levi’s pregnancy we have not been able to take one yet.

Tracking and object searching

Tracking means following a scent, with patience, precision and a clever nose. In object searching the dogs find hidden objects and build focus and confidence in their abilities.
