Vickie Pullen Female sled racer and guest lecturer BSc Canine Training and Performance Guest Lecturer Profile

"I fell in love with sled dogs when working in Canada and Alaska. It wasn’t long before McKinley, my first husky, joined my life. I now have a team of 29 dogs

that form part of my sled dog business.

We compete in sprint racing all over the world, in both open and purebred classes. Win or lose, the dogs always come first and, as long as they're happy to give it their all, so am I!"
