Various locations of events.
In Canada we see some young huskies in training in the snow. Older dogs are seen drawing sleds in dog teams. A puppy has a miniature sleigh attached to his back - he runs along for a bit, then decides to stop for a drink of water. A woman holds several pups in her arms - one licks her face.
