[RC] "It's one of the things that separates horse sports from any other. " - A. Perez... don't forget dog-sledding: "At least 122 dogs have been run to death or have died from other causes in the Iditarod. There is no official count of dog deaths available for the race's early years. " The site has a really charming photo of a team running, dragging a dead or injured dog. Mushers often sleep while the dogs run. If anything I feel worse about the dogs, as they will truly work their hearts out for humans, long after a horse would have said 'enough!' from http://www.helpsleddogs.org/ ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
