I grew up with a dog pack since I was five so I’ve always been able to travel by dogsled. But I just started dog sledding with tourists last year. I got my first dogpack from my aataa (grandfather) here in Ilulissat, where I was born and raised. Now I have a total of 18 dogs, with puppies.
I care a lot for my dogs. I make sure they don’t run everyday so they don’t get tired. Especially if they have been out with heavy tourists, it is important that they are allowed to take time off the next day. Because tired dogs are not good dogs.
I’m pretty certain that I want to stay in Ilulissat in the future. I think it’s the best town, because you can go sailing and have dogs, and both things are close to my heart.
