Most dogs can pull a sled if large enough, there is a famous racing team of Standard Poodles in Alaska! However, the recognised sled dog breeds are Siberian Husky, Alaskan Malamute, Samoyed, Greenland dog and Canadian Eskimo Dog.

lets not forget the border collie in "snow dogs" im sure mine would do it!!!! -lets face it they can do anything!

Yes but the 5 breeds above are the only ones which can take part in organised events :)

With SOME organisations Malakai!
We have had a couple of boxers pull a make do sled in the snow - they seemed to like it - they got to run very fast - too fast for my likeing though :D

Oh okay, I thought that other breeds could only take part in recreational classes - I'm here to be educated :)

NO, some organisations allow you to run any breed or xbreed as long as it is registered with them in an Open class, lots of people run hounds, pointers etc. Personally I'll stick to Sibes...........!

I'll stand corrected then :) Can't say I've seen them myself - and I'll stick to Mallies :D

Me too :D
