Chautauqua, the beautiful, the brave, the first.
Noonie, with Kirstie Alley eyes.
Rigor, the pretty boy on the lot.
Louise, who's hyper like a hummingbird. Rick says that in races she's always ready to get all excited and get the rest of the team riled up. She makes me dizzy just watching her.
Ferocious beast Houston, who really didn't like me at first but definitely came around.
Elefante, such a sweet boy with Dumbo ears. Skittish and shy at first, but very lovey. I wanted to tuck him in the suitcase and bring him home.
Brumby, the Iditarod pro on the lot (has run it twice), and Mr. Chatty Chatty - always has lots of things to say. But, he did learn to sit still and just right for long pets.
Snowman, a super good dog. (Not to be confused with "super cool" says Rick in an SNL reference.) He's really mellow and Rick says he's a great runner. Unfortunately he has a scar on his face from chompy Canyon.
Scooby, Shaggy, and Canyon ...
These are the 12 the Holts currently have ... and some may be running with Rick in the Iditarod in March! (Others of theirs are on loan to a tourist feature; others are borrowed from another musher.)

Oh how I love to look at our doggies. Rick got Ciku and Tauqua's posts in today...so they are up front and looking at the Yurts...I will get pictures posted soon.
I wish we had the other 8 dogs on the lot so you could get to know them too! But they are glacier training!
