A. To actively support the sport of Dog Sled
Racing in order to familiarize to the general public with it and with
the Sled Dog as a working animal.
This we propose to do:
-
On a local level
working independently,
-
On a regional level
working in co-operation with other Sled Dog Clubs, and
-
On a national level in
conjunction with the International Sled Dog Racing
Association, Inc.
B. To organize and
execute competitive Sled Dog Races, the primary purpose of which
will be to provide an opportunity to Mushers to compete openly
with each other in an atmosphere of sportsmanship to determine
superior skills among Dogs and Drivers. A secondary
purpose of such races will be to encourage spectator interest in
and appreciation of the sport of Sled Dog Racing.
C. To promote
cooperation among club members to improve our mutual knowledge
of the art of Sled Dog Driving, the technique of training, the
manufacture and use of sleds, harnesses and other equipment, the
practice of Kennel management, and the sciences of dog breeding
and canine hygiene.
