I hope my sixth graders have visited this super site to learn about dog sledding gear!
yo yo yo
WOW….no affence but it was a waste of my time :(
I am learning about sled dogs in school and we had to pick a musher and i picked Ramey Smith and he came in 9th place and dogs are so cute especialy baby huskys!
i picked wade marrs ;) for the iditarod winner but he didnt win :(
Yo Im a gamer! #1 in the Nation at this game. Oh yeah! Golly
awsome
dog sledding is horrible! people are hurting the poor doggies!! think about it! dont they ever get tired?
i disagree avni. your a meanie. the dogs like it. so be quiet.
I would hardly call this a game. This is for educational purposes only, and good for school curriculum.
I used to think that the dogs were being tortured through this, but then I found out that they actually like it. (BTW I had to read this for a school project, that’s why I read it.)
i think that sledding is the best game in the world because you can see so much when you are sledding and you are arond dogs all the time
This is a great, educational, interactive and factual game. I just did it now and learnt sooo much. PBS is a great website teaching many things.♥☺♪♫☼
this inspired me sooo much this is wat i want to do later on in life!!!!!:)
this game is very very very very boring
These games are really lame, boring, and a waste of time. PBS needs to make these games funner. They could have put all those facts on to a page about sled dogs.
hey ppl wat up??
