Summer Kennel Tours »

Summer Kennel Tours will be available for individuals, families, and groups this upcoming summer season.

Russell and Dawn put a lot of time and effort into the kennel last summer to build & create a place that would be both interesting and fun for people of all ages. Highlights include the chance to meet and play with 50 alaskan huskies and puppies, 2 acres of Nature trails complete with interpretive signage, a central gathering/trapper's homestead area with large stone firepit, traditional trapper's tent, raised outdoor kitchen, examples of outdoor wilderness shelters, tracking sand. Within the 3 acres that they have, you will also see different examples of emergency shelters and fire pits. These are examples of what they teach on their wilderness survival programs.

For groups with kids, they are developing a special trail just for the little one's. The "Fairy Loop" will include articles of fairy lore within the natural surroundings along with obstacle course elements. They are creating a Passport to the world of Mad Dogs & Englishmen in which children will receive stamps as they go through the kennel. They also have several games that can be planned with a group, which include a scavenger hunt.

Russ and Dawn have two young daughters themselves and have put a lot of focus on making sure that the area is a safe and fun environment for their own girls, as well as the children of those who would like to visit.

New trails and tours are on the horizon. The parks have opened up a new trail system for Mad Dogs & Englishmen to explore and they are looking at creating some more intermediate tours, as well as, an advanced run for those who have either dog sledded before or are physically capable. We will put info on the website as they are developed.

2008 Canmore Sled Dog Classic

The Canmore Sled Dog Classic which was scheduled for February 2008 was unfortunately cancelled again this year. Mad Dogs & Englishmen hope that the event can once again get off the ground for 2009 as this event has a long history in Canmore and was an extremely fun and successful event in its time. We will keep you informed if and when any decisions are made for the upcoming winter season.
