Event Description

Join Loppet Foundation partner K9 Powered Sports (K9PS) for Skijoring clinics, both informational and on-snow, that will prepare you to be a great lead partner on your skijor team.

In Skijoring 101, local Loppet member and experienced skijorer, Jonathan Thompson, will introduce you to the sport, covering the basics including the proper gear to make your skijoring outing fun and safe for both you and your dog. He will cover dog care, training, and conditioning. He will also discuss other ways to enjoy the outdoors with your dog, including bikejoring (biking with dogs) and canicross (running with dogs).

The informational session will be completely free and virtual this year, and will be offered multiple times throughout the 2021 season. It will conclude with a Q&A session, allowing participants an opportunity to ask specific questions.

“We are not training dogs, we are training people to train dogs”.
