NEWS
- Plans for repeat breeding of Hudson x Ruby in late July-early August 2010
- Eventyrer Av
Vinterskogen (Eve) has arrived safely here at the Prairie Isle.
Eve is our new Samoyed from Norway. We are excited to have this
bundle of white fur. Tolinka is safely at her new home in Sweden
and will be working on the Polarullens sled team.
- PIDT is having
a custom made dryland cart made so we will be able to offer dog
sledding experiences in the fall and late spring! These
experiences would be based out of our kennel near Petersburg, ND.
The cart will be designed so a guest can sit or stand for their
experience. Plus one would still have the hands on experience in
harnessing, learning about the equipment, how to train a sled dog and
so much more. Watch for more updates as the summer
progresses. But if you are interested in a fall experience please
direct your inquiries to PIDT.
- PIDT has a new Alaskan husky, Red Sheyenne.
Shey was born Jan. 24, 2010 and we are having fun with this
puppy. Trek and Tolinka play constantly with her and the adult
dogs are very good with her. Shey will train with the team this
fall and work for PIDT this next winter.
- PIDT is traveling to Sweden in late June to take
Tolinka to her new home and also onto Norway to pick up our new
Samoyed, Eve. Eventyrer av Vinterskogen. Eve was born on
Feb. 14, 2010 and we are very excited to bring new blood to the lines
of the Prairie Isle Samoyeds.
PUPPIES:
Ruby whelped two puppies, one male and one female on
Oct. 8, 2009. All are doing great.
The male Prairie Isle NW Voyageur, Trekker, will stay here at PIDT and
the female will be going to live in Sweden. Her name will be
Prairie Isle Nayeli Tolinka, Tolinka. We will make the trip to
Sweden to deliver her to her new owner and hoping to bring a new female
Samoyed home with us.
NEW SLED:  PIDT now ones a
Prairie Bilt Trail Glider Dually. I tested their prototype last
winter and Jim Miller made some modifications when he built my
sled. This new sled will make it safer and easier to provide
unique dog sledding experiences. Since there is a second
area for a person to stand on the runners along with a brake for them,
I can hook up a larger team and with the help of guest(s) (one on
runners and one in sled) people can help steer and slow the team
down. But also they can have the feel of driving the team with
the safety of the musher present!

Tourism: ND Tourism has put together a
