Tom & Cathy Dimon's Mackenzie River Husky,
Balou, age 3 months
Balou at 6 months!
From Tom and Cathy... "We run large freighting dogs, ranging in weight from 70 pounds to 115
pounds. They run slow, but steady. We have been actively involved with weight pulling for
the last 4 years, holding several offices in different clubs. "
A view from the back of Dimon's team.
"Weight pulling is a good chance to socialize the
dogs and get out for a good time with friends. Winter camping and touring is a great way
to relax and see the country side."
"We run the dogs recreationally, mostly winter
camping and touring, as a way to see spectacular scenery in the peaceful wintertime."
Coming back to the house from giving a
6 mile ride to friends. Bumper & Nugget
