The Dashing Kennel is a working sled dog kennel in scenic northern Idaho, conveniently located near hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobile trails to train on.   Jill and Bob Wilson are avid winter recreation enthusiasts and have been involved with sledding, skijoring and sled dogs for over 18 years.  

Our focus at the Dashing Kennel is on raising, training and racing canine athletes for carting and sledding events.  We have three types of dogs in the kennel, Alaskan Huskies, Siberian Huskies and Samoyeds. 

The Alaskan Husky is a mixed breed husky, not a registered purebred.  There is no closed stud book.  Their bloodlines include old village dogs from Alaska, hounds, siberian huskies, Irish Setter, and most recently German Short haired pointer.  The Alaskan Husky may vary depending depending upon the needs and desires of the musher who breeds him/her.  Alaskan huskies are the premier performance racing canine athletes, dominating performance sled dog events from sprint to the ultra distance events such as the Iditarod.  To meet the Alaskan Huskies at the Dashing Kennel, click on Alaskan Huskies on the tool bar above.

The Siberian Husky originates from eastern Siberia where their primary use has been as a sled dog and the modern Siberian has a very strong desire to run and to work in harness.  The Siberian is a breed of great beauty as well as athleticism.  To stand on the runners behind a well trained team of siberians is to experience poetry in motion.  To meet the Siberian Huskies of the Dashing Kennel, click on Siberian Huskies on the tool bar above.

The Samoyed is a survivor of harsh arctic life as sledge and herding dog, a dog with both unparalleled beauty as well as rugged working ability.  Today's samoyed is both beautiful and a versatile canine athlete, found competing in agility, obedience, herding, weightpull and skijoring and sledding.  To meet the Samoyeds of the Dashing Kennel, click on Samoyeds on the Tool Bar above.
