Dog sledding rant
this weekend, I went at Quebec city, to relax and enjoy the nice weather, ended up seeing the Carnaval Oficial dog sledding race(Grande Virée) that happens once a year....
I have to admit, even though on 20 ish teams, some were really healthy looking, I was appalled to see others who were not so lucky. One of them caught my attention, he was pretty tall, but so skinny it made my heart weep I know some huskies can be skinny/slender, but that whole team were skinny and so underweight..... That particular dog has a wound on the face who was never treated and never got his claw trimmed (at all...) so when he ran, one of the claw was torn off, it bled so much, but the owners didin't seem to give a flying crap about it. I wanted to steal all of them... I always been fascinated by dog sledding, I even want to do some, but I really want to know before, is that treatment common?
