What
is a Polar Husky? If you take all the northern husky dog breeds --
like Malamute, Greenlandic Husky, Siberian, Alaskan, Mackenzie
River, Canadian Eskimo -- mix them together, stir in a few huskies
from the South Pole and you have a Polar Husky. |
| They
come in all sizes and colors. Some are almost 6 ft standing on
their hind legs, others much smaller. They can be black, white,
red, grey, brown, it does not matter. What matter is that they
LOVE to pull a sled, that they have double-layered coats
and strong spirits. |

Got
more questions on the Polar Huskies; who they are and how
they live??
The
most often asked question is without doubt "What do
the dogs eat out there"? They
eat a specially formulated dogfood called
"Endurance" which is made by Hill's
Science Diet specifically for these expeditions. Science
Diet has been developing this particular food since Will
Steger's North Pole Expedition in 1986. Each chunk
(about 1.5 pounds) is "super charged" with
protein, fat and other nutritious ingredients giving the dogs between 4500 and 6000 calories a
day. The special formula is what makes our 2,500 mile
journey possible. Without the Endurance food, our dogs would
loose weight and energy throughout the expedition. Instead,
they actually gain weight. The dogs love it! |
