dog handler better known as a moshe has lived here for 5 years he's made lapland this home along with his partner kirsten. their love of dogs brought them here. in. the media for them. when you 1st get the sled dog bug it's very hard to stop working with sled dogs is a bit more than just owning dogs i trust the dogs and me and the dog trust me when you see this cooperation best in difficult situations and moments. you don't forget it and feelings of the moment when you've been in a snow storm a few times or been pushed to the limit and your dogs bring you home because they trust you when you give the responsibility to the dogs. there is so much potential and this is also fun. that's much faster. 100 years and

kirsten have been together since 1996. 2 years ago their relationship was put to the test. in late summer 2017 they decided to take on an epic challenge. norway's big get a look at sled dog race the northern most race in the world. it meant lots of work for the pair who come from northern germany. when i used to do this for the children there pairing things and sewing now i do it for the dogs i would have never dreamt of doing that before.

10 weeks before the race. the 1st snow was fallen for andrea stan means the start of the tourist season. it will feel a little weird at 1st you think it's stable but it moves a bit but it's ok you get used to it. this. country is earns a living by offering tourists rides that means training for the race is not always possible. when you want to rice there is a clash between training for such a big event and offering tours we want to do both we want our guests to be happy. yes it's a beautiful. sometimes he has to train in darkness while also doing tours . and dreyer's wants to do 3500 kilometers of training before the race

every one counts the training is going well until 5 weeks before the race when parents didn't decide she is too stressed and busy at home to take part. in the home. we have a young couple who can help instead we have a 1000 percent faith in them but the guy doesn't know he's free to come if the girlfriends he comes alone then i think it is easier if she goes with andre as i would love to but it's fine if it works out with trent. tom and then we'll still have a vet so that's ok. i think it is something you would never forget. her sin is irreplaceable. what can i say.

a few days before the race francey arrives alone her partner couldn't come here. here's tim wants to stay home to help the workers on the farm francey will support andreas in the race. make the best of it and i think the friends he is tough enough. i reckon she can keep her cool better than me i am always a big to have a excited. see when the time comes. and drain us and kerstin of train for over half a year and have sacrificed a lot now andreas will have to face the challenge without kasten. $45.00 participants from 5 countries at the start of the. 3 years

faces a 350 kilometer trick over the next few days. the motor 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 their limits. regular breaks will be necessary the physical strain is enormous and the dog's need to recover. mental concentration is also crucial for both man and dog. after 5 and a half hours and trainers and his dogs reach the 1st checkpoint invites. they've

managed around 70 kilometers. and found it was quite a relaxed 1st leg the dogs found their rhythm after about 20. kilometers of course it wasn't easy the quicker they lie down now and have a rest the quicker we can recover. and then we'll see. the brakes are just as important in the race as the long groans too little sleep for the dogs and the musher can have dramatic consequences. while unfair sets off again after 4 hours rest over sled dog races are taking the 1st injured dogs out of the event. andrea says no such problems

and on the 2nd leg he makes some real progress. if you don't check point always in on the boss flew out of the checkpoint and have pushed themselves more than before but we had 70 tough kilometers before at the moment things are clicking into place but we're not even at the halfway point. on the next leg things continue to go smoothly. from. the partnership with france he is working well. when he rests she takes care of the dogs. but the race has left its mark on undress it is now the 1st day and he has only really slept for 3 hours in total. the journey through the darkness has become

a real test for him but it was now we've got another 105 kilometers and then my friend we can go home. it's not over. the finish line is drawing ever nearer. but their stay at a checkpoint is far longer than expected. you know most of it was you shouldn't happen but it's one of those things. i got the feeling that a new book was just too tired and i went to speak to the vet and they confirmed it and the dog must be told out of the reiss. you have to give the dog to your specific handler and only then can you leave the checkpoint just for laughs and. book and book on this.

book and you have a phone off. and we've been standing around here for 6 hours that is 6 hours in the darkness and traders have been trying to contact francey without success the rules say only francey can take the exhausted dog. i've made a big mistake and i'm paying for it i was asleep and i put my phone on silent just out of habit. it was really bad and 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 and andrea says dream of completing the race is over. i know he was extremely unhappy

he put so much money into it i mean we could have had turrets here for those 2 weeks he's well aware of that himself but i know and he knows that i will totally back him again in the future i think it was here the very next day that he wanted to try it again. 4 1 2 years later and andrea says planning to race again with a new team he is hopeful thanks to his 2 lead dogs and trainers has a special relationship with clara and they now are a. good lead dogs are often very sensitive very intelligent. they have to find the trail in all weathers and deal with the pressure and have solid insurance. if there are $8.00 to $10.00 dogs behind who are rushing too much then it is mentally tiring for the dogs but not every dog does that dogs like an aureole klara are

a pleasure to work with you know he ought to be clobbered as well sean and the reason to change anything when all we had to do for the dogs like cloud. of the extended ome of the moshe and the most important animals on the same. help to move the ball govern my sword my head the experience in the past that the girls a really tough when they get in difficult situations and. a guys work there is nothing to complain about 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 and you stand back and think how is that possible but they just do it a. good job a sort of. andrea says dream of completing a long distance sled race lives on even once frenzy i decide to get in next time.
