Summer dog sledding in Juneau, Alaska
This video is about Summer Dog Sledding in Juneau, Alaska.
Each dog is very well taken care of by several trainers who live at the camp, who all have their own teams, hence the large number of animals. They are very careful about breeding, so there is no need for anyone to hate on this video for the number of dogs. A dog sled team goes anywhere from two to twenty dogs for professionals, and there are several trainers and volunteers that work here.
All the dogs start howling with excitement whenever a sled is about to leave, hundreds of dogs howling to run. I had to tone down the aduio in some parts, it was so loud! :)
The dogs are Alaskan Huskies, which are mixes of several breeds and bred to sled. They are considered even more efficient than Siberian Huskies by those who have run them! Each time a sled left, they howled so loud, I had to tone down the audio!
Disney Wonder Alaska Cruise Adventure 2019- Day 5; Juneau & Musher's Camp Dog Sledding
* Follow Us On INSTAGRAM: @happilyeverafteradventures
Day 5 of our Disney Wonder Alaska Cruise Adventure 2019 is our second Alaskan excursion day. Today we are docking at Juneau, the state capital of Alaska. Coincidentally, this is the only United States capital that is only accessible by air or sea (there are no connecting roads); it's a good thing we are on a ship!
We wake up and quickly get ready to venture into the city. A short shuttle takes us to the excursion pick-up area, located next to the famous Mount Roberts tramway. We find our group are bussed to the excursion that we have been looking forward to for months: the Dog Sledding Musher's Camp.
This place is the on-land camp that houses and trains all of the sled dogs. We arrive and are greeted by dozens of barking dogs. We are told that they bark when the busses arrive because they are excited; they know they will be running shortly. Our bus is divided into two groups: one that gets pulled on the land-sled first and one that gets a tour and information about the compound. We are grouped in the latter.
Our group is escorted to a beautiful area of the camp where we get to cross a large suspension bridge (held up by two gigantic trees). Gus, or group guide, teaches us all about the local foliage, wildlife, and camp life. Then he escorts us to another area of the camp where we learn all about the history of sled dog racing, along with the types of equipment used.
Before we know it, it is time to board our land sled. We are so excited! Our drive whistles loudly, and we are on our way. Our cart is pulled surprisingly fast (at least it feels fast), and the dogs do a great job of running in sync. Clara has a blast, and we all applaud as we finish out run.
After the run, we are introduced to the dogs that just pulled us, and then we are taken to the kennels. Here, we get to meet, cuddle, and pose for pictures with all of the new camp puppies. Amanda is in heaven!
All good things come to an end, though, and we are shortly bussed back to the Disney Wonder. This evening, Clara dresses in her Jessie outfit, Amanda and Josh Disney Bound some Toy Story outfits, and we all head to the lobby to enjoy the Pixar Pals Dance Party!
Adriana finds the real Jessie and brings her over to Clara. They both spend time dancing together; Clara is so happy. Afterwards, we meet and greet with all of the various Pixar characters.
Tonight's entertainment is the (currently) Wonder-exclusive 'Frozen: A Musical Spectacular'. The show is amazing (as always), and after the show, it is time for dinner at Tritons.
This was an amazing day, and we are so happy to have been able to share it with you. As always, please feel free to Subscribe, Like, and Comment. We would also love to have you follow us on Instagram. Thank you so much for watching. See ya real soon~

This video was taken while touring a Dog Sled Summer Camp...one of the excursions offered by Princess Cruises' Alaskan trip. I opted for this tour in Juneau on a wet day, but it was a blast nonetheless. The musher is Abbie West. I highly recommend letting her give you a ride with her adorable dogs. Notice how quiet the dogs are while running and doing what they love most...race on cosmic canines!
