Description
About 6000 dogs are used for work and for fun. The longline-fishermen are using the strong dogs for transportation of halibut-fish between the ice fiord and Ilulissat - today the modern machine power still can't compete with the Inuit dogsledge. We will invite you to join the feeding of a dog team. You can see, feel, touch and most of all hear the howling of 20 hungry dogs. The owner will demonstrate the sledge, the harness, the whip and tell about the life as sledge-dog in Greenland.
