Äkäskero Sleddogcenter
At the first tour with little snow the dogs enjoyed the blueberry bushes as mattresses and got a duvet from snow. For the ones with little less fur we have doghouses for more comfort.

As this winter is a bit late guides are experiencing a bit of problems when out on the trail..... However with minus 25 these problems should be gone soon 🙂 Nobody likes to get wet feet at this temperatures.

Great job doggies
Puppies learn to wait on the stake-out. Something they will have to do a lot when becoming real sleddogs. Not all are patient yet 🥰

"Wait ??? What do you mean by wait ? It's been too long I'm waiting to become a real sleddog" 😂
Majava a nice female from Sibiria did not feel good and did not eat yesterday. So we had an emergency call for the vet and Joanne and Mercy went in the evening to the vet. She had developed a pyometra and had been operated late in the evening. By now she is feeling much better. Thanks to Joanne and Mercy

Poor girl. I hope she will be fine soon.💝
Poor her. I wish she will recover soon and feel better.
She is doing much better by now thanks Joanne and Mercy
All the best and get well soon 🍀🍀🍀
Gute Besserung für die Süße
Gute Besserung, Majava. Viele Grüße von mir. Ich war Doghandlerin als sie geboren wurde und kenne sie noch als Welpe und Junghund 🥰
From Lapland for all: have a nice weekend

Right now booked the Wilderness Tour for February ... looking forward to be back at Äkäskero and cuddle the lovely doggies very soon 🐶😍
Kiitos
You had been missing Barry, Balto and Boris? They like to chase the ATV. Barry is a bit spoiled because of the special "treatment" she is getting from Mercy 🙂

Barry = Beryl? 🫣
In 3 weeks the sun will not rise anymore for our winternight until beginning of January. Already now at noon the sun is just a little above horizon and throws long shadows.

After a lot of sleddog- and guiding theory the dinner prepared by chef George is welcomed by everyone. In few days the crew will be complete as also the staff for the Huskyvillage will be complete. As usual we are a very international crew: Finland, Canada, Germany, Austria, France, Slovakia, Netherlands, Nepal, Switzerland, Philippines and Kenya - long way to Lapland 🙂

Ich wünsche euch Allen eine erfolgreiche, schöne und hoffentlich stressfreie Saison. Natürlich mit netten Gästen.
Another day of beauty. Arne training with his dogs from Finnmark in nice weather. These days we are glad for every sunrays as the sun will not raise anymore in few weeks.

When you are sleeping we are out to watch the Northern Lights dancing on the sky. Even after 34 years in Lapland still fascinating. Äkäskero Sleddogcenter - away from artificial lights - is one of the best places to see them - if you are not sleeping 🙂 Taken on last of October 2024

Good morning from Lapland.
Still warm - yes, 3 degrees are warm for us - but temperatures are supposed to go in the negative numbers next week. The water in lakes and rivers is already cool so the freeze up should be good.

If you do not trust your musher, you better bring your own food-bowl with for a training-run. Xanti takes care of himself.

It is the first season for Vice and Xari and they are already learning to be leaddogs. As the weather turned "warm" again the snow is gone. Gives nice peeling for dogs and mushers 🤣

Even at real hard conditions the dogs are not really eager to rest. The desire to go as it is known for real sleddogs.

We got the first thicker layer of snow and birds coming back for food

After a 15 km run Alina, Roshan and Sonja are back with the dogs from Yukon. A bit tough for mushers and dogs at this time of the year. Maybe even harder for the mushers as the had the same run with Ellesmere in the morning with minus 10 C.

A beautiful morning but maybe time to look for warm underwear

…so true ! Best regards from Kemi;-)
Ich stimme dem voll und ganz zu.
Wunderschön 🤩.
Our loving parents Uriah&Quake and their offspring. Hope you will meet them soon.

Looking forward to meet them on Friday!!! 🤩
Die drei sind soooo süß 🥰
Homage for our old dogs. They have done so much work and given so much love and have a right to live a happy life. Between 20 to 30 % of the dogs in a kennel are normally retired - if you keep them and treat them well. So easy to know, how dogs are treated at their places. Treat them well and they will live a long life.

From top clockwise: Nansen, our superdog. Doing 5000 - 7000 km every year and just retired finally at 12 years old. Voice born 2013, just retired. Ussuri born 2013, just retired. Victory born 2008. One of our 4 "super old(ies)" Uando born 2013, just retired and brother of Ussuri, Ulvang, Uppea, Unari, Urengoi, Usko and Urson who also retired after last season as 11 years old.
We were so happy to see Emmi when we came in 2022... We knew her from our first trip to Äkäskero in 2011...
Finde ich toll
I remember Kimo who I met 2005 and had a really funny way of howling 😄 And then this beauty, whose name I don't recall

If you have no flowers you can also plant puppies 🙂 Our three B-puppies not looking too happy.

The last litter of the year. Uriah and Quake are the parents. A very interesting line breeding on a Baker dog

So Quake is the father of two litters this year? I remember, when he was two weeks old and fit in my hand 😊
What can be better than spending midsummer with a gang of puppies?

Mother #3: Milda with her litter of 8 puppies. Father is Watson. We still are waiting for #4 which should be due the next 10 days.

Is this the A-litter then? Are you collecting names again? 🤩
Dan Schwarzbacher 😍
By now also the Z-litter (Cheetah/Quake) like to explore the outside of their box. Will take time to present all of them as they are 9 (!). Father Quake is our perpetum mobile - does not know that after few hundred kilometers he should be tired and calm down. Cheetah, out of Marley is a perfect mother.

So far the hottest May day in the history of Äkäskero

And down in Switzerland one of the wettest....
Wow!😳😳😳
The Y-litter getting some early training. As earlier the start to learn the necessary skills for sleddogs, as easier and less stressfull it is for them. Here they learn to be tied - some food makes it a positive experience.

If you thought, that uphills are demanding.... when on Panoramatour you might learn, that downhills can be much more challenging

Aaahhhh zooo schattig.. die donkere die niet omdraait 😍
Marjolein de Wolf heb je er al eentje uitgezocht? 🙈
With our 2nd Panoramatour our season ended. Alina and Sonja did a great job to bring our guests through some very difficult situations to Nikkaluokta. Palm weather made the trails difficult and 4 km overflow, downhills which had been taken on the butt, ice breaking under the sledges.... But everybody made it. Congratulations.

Sooooo nice. Amazing
The second Panoramtour just crossed the difficult Torneträsk and is heading towards Nikkaluokta. Meanwhile some more photos from the first tour.
