so when i retire is i friends encourage me to come with dies and i tried that. and now i love with him, especially when they get older. social contact is good. and even those who prefer to stay dry can still catch eclipse from afar. and that's the news update at this hour. i'm clare richardson in for atlanta for me in the whole team here. thank you so much for watching. the imagine that you're eating a hamburger and as you're biting into this juicy burner, your dining companion says to you, actually that hamburger is not made from cows. it's made from golden retrievers. 2

2 2 should we. 2 2 2 2 2 2 in meeting cultures around the world, people learn to classify small handful of animals with edible and all the rest of the classify as disgusting. w series about our complex relationship with animals. the great debate, what you know on youtube dw documentary, the under as thought is living the dream. in his winter wonderland and sweden's lapland, the deals of husky fun with 50 dogs.

the select dog handler, better known as a most it has lived here for 5 years. he's made lapland is home, along with his partner coast in the love of dogs. roll them here. then he asked me to sleep when you 1st get the sled dog bug, it's very hard to stop guns working with sled dogs is a bit more than just owning dogs. i trust the dog and me and the dog trusts me. your when tom, you see this cooperation best in difficult situations and momentum all by that, all is you don't forget it. i'm open for you things to do a dual enrollment when you've been in a snow storm, a few times. well, being pushed to the limit with loss and your dogs bring you home, you know how it was, because they trust you and you give the responsibility to the dog. so i'm going to be sent off. keeps ever so much potentials. and this is also

a fun other than that that's more comfortable as much boss. andreas and kirsten have been together since 1996. 2 years ago. that relationship was put in to the test. in late summer, 2017. they decided to take on an epic challenge, norway's big enough that sled dog race to know of and most race in the world. it meant lots of work for the past to come from northern germany. toyota just when i used to do this for the children for repairing things and showing now i do it for the dogs. i would have never dreamt of doing that before the the

10 weeks before the race. the 1st snow is fallen for andreas. that means the thoughts of the tourist season for jump on to hide. it will feel a little weird at 1st. you think it stable, but it moves a bit of this, but it's okay. you get used to it and based on the different dress ends of living by offering tourist rides, that means training for the race is not always possible. then when do i'm going to and i'd spend fall and when you want to race, there was a clash between training for such a big event and offering tours because we want to do both day and we want our guests to be happy, but what not to the author suggest it to feed sometimes he has to training darkness . well, also doing to as andreas wants to do 3500 kilometers of training

before the race. every one counts. training is going well until 5 weeks before the race. when captain decides she is too stressed and busy at home to take part young guns, old fashion, we have a young couple who can help instead because we have a 1000 percent facing them as a. but the guy doesn't know if he's free to come. if the girlfriend she comes alone, then i think it is easier if she goes with andrea's. i would love to but it's fine if it works out with friends see 20 except somebody they will still have a vet. so that's okay. i think it is something you would never forget to got to my hosting. is there a place that will have to just need to have that? so what can i say so or

the a few days before the race frenzy arrives alone upon no couldn't come the cast and wants to stay at home to help the workers on the farm front seat will support andreas in the race or will make the best of it, and i think the frenzy is tough enough and a slow. i reckon she can keep her food better than me. i am always a bit too over excited to see when the time comes. andreas and cursed and obtain for over the years and his sacrifice deluxe. now, andreas will have to face the challenge with outcast. and these boss have fun. the

45 participants from 5 countries or at the store to the give a little bit. dreyer's faces a 350 kilometer trick. over the next few days. the most you and his dogs will head into norway's arctic circle for the 1st leg. ice cold winds and temperatures as low as 40 degrees below celsius will push them to the limits. the regular breaks will be necessary. the physical strain is enormous and the dogs need to recover. ok. mental concentration is also crucial for both man and dog.

after 5 and a half hours, andreas and his dogs reach the 1st check point in that, so they've managed around 70 kilometers. ok, the fun and see much fun to us. it was quite a relaxed 1st leg. the dogs found the rhythm after about 20, the kilometers or the cool. so it wasn't easy. so quick as i lie down now and how the rest, the quicker we can recover the last one. and then we'll see the break. so just as important in the race as the long runs to the can slate for the dogs and the most, you can have dramatic consequences. the while andreas itself, again up to full. i was rest of us let the races of taking the 1st injured dogs out of the event. andrea says no such problems. on the 2nd leg,

he makes some real progress. he's not in check point of always and now the dogs flew out of the check pointed to push themselves more than before and got enough. we had 70 tough kilometers the full at the moment and things that clicking into place. but we're not even in the hot flight points when he might side on the next leg, things continue to go smoothly. the partnership with frenzy is working well. when he wrists, she takes care of the dogs. but the race has left it small con, dress. it is now the foot day, and he is only really set for 3 hours in total. the journey through the darkness

has become a real test. it's important because now we've got to another 105 kilometers. when i met my friends, we can go high. if the whole the finish line is drawing as a nearer but the stay at a check point is far longer than expected. for general doctors because it shouldn't happen. but it's one of those things i'm gonna call it as confused. i got the feeling that a new car was just too tired. and i went to speak to the vets and they confirmed it, and the dog must be pulled out. so the rice, so you have to give the dog to your specific handler. then only then can you leave the tech point to point us to the lesson. and definitely the show in the kids off

on the book unless she had a phone office. what else? the and we've been standing around here for 6 hours. that is 6 hours in the darkness. andrea's had been trying to contact francy without success. the rule of say only fancy can take the exhausted dog such as for car. um, i've made a big mistake and i'm paying for it when i was asleep and i put my phone on silent just out of habit. i thought it was really bad. and that's why i had a missed due to the last time the torch batteries are running low, as well as the phone battery. after all those calls, carrying on now is not possible. 100 kilometers from the end addresses dream is

completing the race is over. as far as the set to the, i know he was extremely unhappy, he put so much work and money into it. i mean, we could have had tourists here for those 2 weeks. he's well aware of that themselves. but i know, and he knows that i was totally back him again in the future. but i think it was clear the very next day that he wanted to try it again from fist so. so that's the one most. 1 2 years later and then dress is planning to race again. with a new team, he is hopeful things to his to lead dogs. andreas has a special relationship with clara and didn't already. we do lie to him to good lead dogs often very sensitive, very intelligent and listen, they have to find the trail and oh, where does and deal with the pressure and have solid endurance of does is off. i was hoping to know if there was 8 to 10 dogs behind who a rushing too much then it is mentally tiring. so the dog sounds thing,

but not every dog does that. dogs like you know, rio clara are a pleasure to work with you. you're not here to be classified as i've shown. and the reason to saying is like when always to do the dogs like clara on the night of the extended on the most you and the most important animals on the team. we have 2 minutes interval gotten right to do i have the experience in the past that the goals are really tough when it gets in difficult situation. 7 for you to have a guys woodcock too. but there is nothing to complain about all of them. but when it comes to the real thing, then it's often these seemingly normal female dogs who put their heads down and go through a blizzard once, and you stand back and think, how is that possible? but they just do it like a bar garvey. so what i'll do mountain side, andreas is dream of completing a long distance lead race lives on the even once francy at the side again. next time the,
