Back in December we announced we were stoked to have Flint Sky Alaskan Malamutes joining our athlete team, and now who better to give us an intro to her pack but Red.
We are extremely excited here at Flint Sky to be working with SnowPaw Store again this year! SnowPaw Store has been a fundamental part of our working journey with the dogs - the kit and the knowledge behind the kit has been second to none, and we’ve been very grateful to have them as our supplier for many years, and this year as one of our sponsors.
To begin, I’d love to take a moment to introduce us, our team and talk abo ..read more

We are delighted to have Team Pointerfaces on board with us for the 2023-2024 season. The team have not long got back from the ICF World Championships in Germany so here's an introduction by Susan on who they are and all about their trip to Germany...
First off, I would like to say a big thank you to SnowPaw Store for their amazing support of our Team.

Where to start… seems we are in it for the long run now………..
It is the middle of November and we are currently still dryland training, the dogs and the winter seem to keep teasing us this season. It is a great time to reflect back on last season, especially competing in the Beaver Trap Trail. We are in the middle of a big move deeper north into Swedish Lapland, to chase the winter & our crazy dreams!
In the beginning of March we went to help Thomas Wærner and Guro Wærner on the Finnmarksløpet, (a 1200 kilometer race in the very north of Norway) we travelled to Alta, and spent several days ..read more

Great article here written by our friends across the pond at Howling Dog Alaska
In this article, we bring you useful information that will help everyone, especially the ones starting out in the sport of mushing – whether your goal is to race or recreate on snow or dryland. First, we need to define conditioning versus training. Training teaches behavior such as taking turns, slowing down, speeding up, or stopping. Here we will be addressing basic early-season conditioning for dogs to reach their optimum fitness level through exercise and nutrition. Proper exercise (conditioning) and n ..read more

With so many different types of bikejoring arms on the market its hard to know which is the right one for you. So rather than write a sales blog about them we thought it best to get someone like you to try them out and give their honest opinion on what they are like to fit and use when starting out.
Steph is the adventurous type having turned her paw to many different things: agility, canoeing, camping, she is even happy pootling down river on powerboats.
So it made sense to ask her and one of her humans, Nick, to review 4 of our bikejoring attachments.
Although Nick is keen on bikes and ..read more

Here at SnowPaw Store, we offer a variety of lines to suit you and your team's needs. The gangline is the way to attach your dog to your sled, dog scooter, bicycle, vehicle to be pulled or even yourself.
Tuglines
This is a line usually attached to the back of the harness to the shockline. This is available as a Single Tugline or a Double Tugline.
Necklines
This is attached to the dog collar. The lead dogs will usually be attached to each other, whereas any wheel dogs will be attached to the centre gangline / towline.
Towlines/Centrelines
Central towline takes more strain, generally 3/8”
