About us

Our small kennel in Swedish Lapland is home to 9 Greenland dogs focused on expedition travel and traditional sledding practices. With 10 years of experience working with sled dogs, I've built our kennel around education, mental wellbeing, and preserving traditional polar travel methods.

We are not a racing kennel or tourism entertainment operation. Our mission centers on understanding dogs as expedition companions and honoring their historical role in human survival in polar regions. Our pack consists primarily of Greenland dogs, selected for their traditional working abilities and arctic adaptability.
