How does a trainer choose a lead sled dog?
How is a lead dog chosen? What does a trainer look for in its leader?
Ron M. answers:
Lead dogs make their presence known. They are typically the most inquisitive puppies; the sharpest, most “aware” of their surroundings. They begin in the middle of the team, and their drive becomes apparent when they are trying to run up on/pass the dogs in front of them.
Eventually, they are tried in lead with an experienced adult — and they either take right to it, or they don’t. Being in the lead puts a lot of pressure on a dog, especially in a large team. Some dogs buckle under the stress.
How does a musher get his/her first lead dog? If they are lucky, they buy one from a more experienced musher, who honestly sells them a lead dog (not just a dog “has led” or “might lead”). The tough part is getting an experienced musher to part with a good lead dog…they are invaluable.

Maria asks…
15 years from now will America really still be the lead sled dog?
Ron M. answers:
It’s kind of hard to say. I think America is in a very severe financial mess right now… Foreign opinion is pretty low even though Bush is out.. Bogged down in consuming and ultimatley pointless military engagements…
I think if America can learn from this, put in proper financial regulations, revamp its foreign policy, and begin to practice more self-sufficiency and begin to ween itself off of foreign fossil fuels.. I think it will be the top dog. If not.. It’s going to get ugly.
