A dog sled or dog sleigh is a sled pulled by one or more sled dogs used to travel over ice and through snow.
Description
Dog sledding is sometimes called “mushing," and a person who travels by dog sled is called a “musher." Mushers take great care when selecting their dog sled team, which includes several dogs with different jobs. The dogs are tied together by a long “gangline" running between them.
