    Stop importing these dogs because these dogs sleep in the snow and love to run. In the Philippines, these dogs are chained for life. Many people do not understand the needs of these dogs - - to run and sleep in the snow.

    They are chained for life in the US and Canada too. Sled dogs have it rough. In the arctic they are on chains too but historically they weren't. the canadian government was shooting unchained dogs in the 1950s and almost wiped out the indigenous sled dogs so now there is a culture of chaining sled dogs. In racing, tourism, working dogs, indigenous peoples dogs. All sled dogs are on chains in the US and Canada with very very few exceptions. Yall have rooster fighting in the philipines. Its basically the same as sled dog racing. You can see tours of rooster fighting yards in the philipines. And tours of alaskan racing kennels and maybe see what I mean. Animal racing sucks everywhere.

    Great comment! The needs of ALL Canines, need be acknowledged by man. For instance, if you have a small apartment, have a small dog. No dog is a "lap" dog, when given the environment.

    Our husky gets all she wants. She isn't chained and stays on the air conditioner vent in high summer. She lives with us in the house. She can run outside as she has an invisible fence to keep her out of roads. She is spoiled. I forgot she only eats cooked meat 🍖 as well and gets a tooth bone daily to help keep her teeth clean. She has Christmas toys and birthday bones/toys, including a vanilla cake. As I said she is spoiled but we love her and would do anything for her. My family is her pack. She sees me as alpha and always huckers down hiding her face when I go to her. People probably think I beat her but nothing could b further from the truth. She only accepts direct right now orders from me but will tell me off if I play with her about stealing anything that is hers. Although she knows I would never take her food or toys. She has killed 4 ground hogs in our yard. As I said we love her and will do anything for her. She is however very territorial not allowing any other animal in our yard. She almost killed my brother in laws weiner dog but I warned him not to let his dogs out around her.

    I mean they are still dogs you know. And in order for this breed to be recognized and preserved, they should be more than just "work animals". I'm all about traditional way of things but if that's the case then no one should have a dog. Every dog was bred for different reasons and different tasks whether for hunting, search and rescue, guarding or pulling, every dog was bred for a specific job. And what people may not know is once one of these dogs get hurt, sick or at the age of retiring, they are simply just put down and not treated or given a chance to just be a dog. And the real reason why no one wants these dogs to be imported is to maintain purity and avoid crossbreeding. So all in all I believe anyone so long as the dog is happy and can run and be more than just for work, anyone can have it. That's just like saying 'unless your a hunter or cop, you cant have a German shepherd or Retriever because they are for working.

    Great documentary. Has a owner of an Quimmiq (Canadian Inuit Dog) I know how kind and loving this breed of dog is. This killing was one of the worst thing that the Canadian government did and should have never happened. As a Canadian I was unaware of all this until I got my own Quimmiq (Canadian Inuit Dog) name Atal, I was shocked that I did not learn about this in school. I am glad that this breed is still alive and there numbers are slowly getting higher and that my own dog Atla will be part of a breading program to keep this gear dog breed alive. We need to learn from this tragedy and be better humans.

    If you have any husky "breed" your dog is very far removed from these indigenous dogs. Like a siberian husky for example doesn't even resemble the dogs the native people had/have. These "breeds" we have in the rest of the world are the result of a man made genetic bottleneck through inbreeding and line breeding by taking a small number of dogs out of a larger population. Hereditary problems, not as capable, not as smart. They are the result of european dog fancy and kennel clubs setting arbitrary standards. I worked in dog sled racing the dogs you see there people call "alaskan husky" Its not a breed. An alaskan from today is a different dog from an alaskand 30 years ago because there is no set standard to how they should look. If they win races thats the dog that gets bred. So overtime the dogs change alot. Racing is awful and needs to be banned. Its so bad that the quote here at 1:59 literally made me cry thinking about how they didn't have racing when he wrote that. Sled dogs today run faster and farther than ever. Its messed up how hard they push these dogs mentally and physically. But yea. Huskies in the pet realm are total joke. They are not good sled dogs, they are not easy to work with, good luck hunting a bear or seal with those jokers. All the chaining is sled dogs traces back to the Canadian government shooting dogs that weren;t on chains in the 1950s. They didn't keep dogs tied up in the arctic for 10,000years its only the past 100ish that has been going on. But I thought It was super fitting the first shot of dogs you see in this show was dogs on a chain. In the arctic they actually live like that its called a "gang line." Dog houses fill up with snow and the dogs chew them up. Everything is crazy expensive up there so yea alot of the dogs up there just live staked to the ground on one big line like that. They occasionally get eaten by polar bears or freeze to death. Historically they ran around and barked at polar bears keeping them away but that doesnt work if they are chained up. If they want to keep chaining their dogs in these indigenous communities its not my place to tell them how to live. But with racing and tourism in the United states and alaska its different I can comment on that all day. Its no ones job BUT mine to comment on it. The level of care in racing is a joke and those dogs live brutal lives. Racing sucks. All forms of animal racing need to be banned.

    @@macthompson9750 Well for one your totally right in some of those ways but Siberians do indeed make great sled dogs as I've ran with them before. A lot of the sled dogs used in races are mixes and a concoction of fast and sleek breeds to make a good sled dog and this is true on your part. This honestly I've always thought as weird as when working with Siberian husky "pure" shall I say, they make excellent pack workers, the teams are usually solid, ofcouarse with the right individual huskies but they are generally reliable. Resilient aswell and tough. Maybe Siberians aren't in the same size range but their strong as a team and fast too. As for closeness to the Inuit dogs in this documentary, they are very close in comparison to anything else I can think of in the husky seen or "Alaskan husky" or mixed sled dogs. In short, Siberians can make excellent sled dogs, hunting dogs and can be a efficient pack. (again every husky is a individual dog and have their own personalities so this varies.) Also as a side thing of mine FUCK the AKC! K I'm done byeeee

    @@sugilite6326 The best siberians are worse than the worst alaskans as far as racing times go just saying. And the hardest to handle teams I ever worked with were Siberians. That comes from me having raced and handled at races with pure breed classes. Racing needs to be banned. The big difference in pure breed and mixed classes are one is I find most people in mixed are racing are RACERS. And in pure bred class they "DOG BREEDERS" kinda different motivation for getting into it. The result is the same though, by doing well in races your dogs are more profitable. So to make your dogs have a higher perceived value they created their own class. I think every dog is a good dog. But your applied logic doesnt line up with the things you say. So eff the AKC but breed standards are okay? Breeding siberians is still okay despite the INHERENT genetic bottleneck? My big thing is pushing to ban racing. But in general I find dog breeding and pet industries to be pretty skeezy too and the husky is a prime example of why dog breeding is dumb and gross.The "Samoyed" is another example from a cold climate.

    DUDE. That is NOWHERE near the whole story. The Canadian government SHOT their dogs. It mirrors what happened to the native Americans but it happened in Canada around the 1950s. In short, the government was relocating indigenous people and eventually they had these large settlements that had never really existed in the arctic. And you had people from tribes all over who didn't really know how to live in that area. Its was a mess and i am way over simplifying. But these people brought their dogs with them, so now we had ALOT of dogs in a settlement that didn;t need that many dogs any more. The native way of keeping dogs is fairly hands off. So now its a bit of a problem. A white lady got killed by dogs and then the government got crunk and started shooting any dog that wasn't on a chain, and they did a very poor job of communicating it, killed MOST of the sled dogs. And then they lied about it for decades. Life in the arctic is nuts. People would go without food. The dogs didn't endure anything that the humans didn't I think people miss that when they are romanticizing these dogs. If the people are eating well the dogs are eating well. The inverse is true too. There is some wacky stuff out there about come people like keeping their dogs on an island during the summer months and letting them just fin for themselves, just hucking salmon on to the shore every now and again. But not everyone had access to an island so than cantt be the norm lol. Better than chains lol so still better than how sled dogs live today.

    I’ve fully watched this and I find it very interesting I live in northern Ontario indigenous community my grandparents used to tell me a time before the snowmobile and they used to have dogs. My mother says she remembers going to their winter home which is now our family trap line camping grounds by dog team and they used to sit in the sled but mostly would walk the 30 Mike distance on ice but would set camp in evenings a journey that took 2-3 days. Today it takes me an hour to an an hour and a half depending the speed of the outboard in summer and winter time it doesn’t take long by todays bullet snowmobiles but anyways as a child my grand parents used to laugh at the dogs we had as a pet thinking they were big dogs like German shepherd cross or most of the cross breeds roaming around to them my grandparents thought they were small dogs and rarely let us keep them as pets because of parasites. They were never allowed in the house. Today we have meds for that and I have 2 inside dogs who refuse to go out in the cold days They just go do “business “ and come right back inside. Anyway My grandmother used to tell me stories while at camp and had told me that 3 dogs were enough but some people would have more dogs but it meant more work to keep them fed and making their own shelters apart from each other but close enough to one another it also meant a family needing a lot of space But my grandparents were humble and only needed 3 dogs, a lead dog and two big pulling dogs just enough to pull my grandfather to and from his hunting trips mostly checking traps and snares which was a daily thing to do checking the Gill nets. And fish is what they fed the dogs mainly sucker fish. They boiled it and grandma would make bannock and add flour to the broth to thicken it and toss a full pan of bannock to it along with the fish and fed them every second day but as pups they fed them a lot in order for them to grow big but as they got older they lessened the amount so the dogs don’t get fat snd lazy and during the coldest winters they’d make sure to feed them at nights so they don’t freeze in their sleep ( those people with a lot of dogs learned the hard way as they couldn’t keep 10 or more dogs fed and times were harsh back then Back in her younger days winters were so bad families perished from starvation and exposure as the men got too weak to hunt Theres a place near our camp where it is said an entire tribe had frozen in their wigwams. Sometimes I think back about those times and wish I had a Time Machine just to go give my ancestors Jig heads and fishing line and show them the art of ice fishing as that would’ve helped them survive not to mention an ice pick even a simple slingshot would’ve helped them. Anyway I’m veering way off here but anyway. I love theses Inuit dogs and watching this just brought back some memories about sled dogs The end

    I worked in dog sled racing and it was really bad. The way the dogs lived was better back then at least in Leonard Seppalas(the guy from togo) case he didn;t chain his dogs up all year. In the iditarod they run twice as far in a day as Togo ever did. And they run for multiple days straight. Its insane. shorter races aren;t better they are just faster its still hard on the dogs. The dogs USED in the movie togo live on chains. Its alot nicer than most racing places though but it still kinda sucks there is a better way.

    12:18 no they don't. because not everyone has access to fresh raw meat year around. Its really just a think dependent on what works in your particular area it varies ALOT. There are alot of different cultures in the arctic. Some people have plenty of seasonal access to fish so their dogs eat raw salmon for part of the year and smoked salmon the rest of the year. nah mean? They will preserve large batches of salmon and use that until the next run. And yea its true that indigenous dogs would go long stretches without food. Id be willing to bet thats more common than youd think with hunting dogs the world over. Seems to be the case from what I can tell.

    So really, it's a personal preference on what breed you use for your sled team. It depends on personal preferences as well as the type of sledding you're doing. For heavy freight work, malamutes, Inuit dogs, and bigger breeds are better. For distance and endurance, Siberians and Alaskan huskies are the main choice. A large majority of the dogs in the Iditorad are Alaskan huskies. They seem to be the breed of choice for American mushers. Alot of the Alaskan huskies have hound bred into them to add speed

We used them on tours, but mostly for expeditions and trips. The Inuit sled dogs were tough....never seemed phased by the cold, would pull heavy loads all day and would go a lot faster than many mushers think when the sled was empty! They were super pack oriented and would eat anything that moved. They can metabolize water out of fat and could eat scoops of lard like candy! The stories of them eating humans come from dogs left on islands in the Arctic in summer (basically the dogs couldn't get off the island). Stories say that humans would stumble onto a "dog island" and be attacked by starving dogs and eaten. I'm not sure if its true....my Inuit Sled dogs ate well and were very friendly towards humans. My son grew up playing and feeding our dogs and never had a problem. I have seen Inuit dogs unfamiliar with children, that would start looking at running children like game!

    Comparing a domesticated husky or malamute to these majestic pure bred working dogs is CAF. I can't see many urban people treating their breeds' the way these majestic creatures are. Many may come from a similar lineage but have potentially lost all the grit their historic and contemporary ancestors have. I love how it was stated near the beginning of the doco that sled racing etc, is seen as a abomination to traditional owners.....

    The Canadian government killed them. Then they lied about it for decades. True story. I over simplified it alot. But yea that really happened, almost wiped out all the dogs in the 1950s. The canadian government has a bad history with its native population in recent times.

    So many misconceptions here. guys keeps talking about 'pure bred' and completely fail to mention that the Greenlandic Sled dog is genetically pure and identical to the inut husky. Greenland sled dogs are so protected that no other dogs are allowed in the arctic citites, and there are more dogs in the towns than humans. Also people DO use these sleddogs for races.

    Siberian Husky’s are NOT sled dogs !!! I repeat Siberian Husky’s are NOT Sled dogs they are bred into Sled dogs! Most Sled dogs that are raced today are a henz 51 of different pure dogs breeds, to get the desired characteristics like speed, agility, intelligence and strength, depending on where in the pack they are. Wheel house or lead dog.

    "Survival of the Fittest?" That is a lie. We have beautiful, frail butterflies still fluttering about while the huge, mighty dinosaurs are extinct. Jesus Christ is the Master Creator of all; Romans 10:9-10 from the Bible: “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.”

    Am I the only one seeing that this is cruel treatment of animals, when they aren’t actively pulling a sled they are on small chains with little stimulation, which is probably why they are so excited to pull because they are bored on chain, and being whipped with a rope is an inefficient way to break up a dog fight, I just feel that it’s something better left in the past, these dogs quality of life would probably be better if they were let go wild to hunt and live freely, no need to Cary on traditions if they are cruel

    Never ever go on a "sled dog adventure." This is aninal exploitation and very cruel. These dogs are no different from our pet dogs. They aren't some apecial breed that can withstand freezing temperatures. They are kept on short chains 24/7 apart from when they are forced to pull tourists. They go insane going around and around in tiny circles in their own waste. They starve and freeze to death. If business slows down, the dogs are shot. If a dog gets injured, she is shot. Cruel. Violent.

    If you have never been on a sled with your own team, you know jack shit. Many people keep small kennels and it's a family affair to go to races and meet others with your interests. A few believe it's inhumane to race animals like dogs and horse. Go to a race talk to the people who keep those animals. Does some shady stuff happen, yes but the vast majority are not like that. When I ran dog's, I visited many kennels big and small and 99% of the time animals were sheltered fed everyday and had all they needed to be comfortable. Keeping dog's was a family affair. My children learned about birth and death and how to care for our dogs. Responsibility for the dogs was number one in our kennel and Keeping them in shape to do what they loved most ... run and run and run some more.

    I remember the incident that happened with the huskies in Canada and this guy owned and operated an dog sled team and he took them and cruely killed them and buried them in a mass grave and the guy was caught along with some other people who helped him. He was Jailed and was cfound GUILTY!! He's and the rest of the guys are not allowed to own another dog for the rest of there lives!! How sad I've got the news paper clippings of it from the very day it started!!! How sad, there gorgeous dogs!! And they don't deserve that treatment at all!!🍁🇨🇦🍁🦄💝💖💗🦄🕊️✝️🛐♾️💟🌈💝🏔️🏔️🏞️🌹💐🍀🦢🌿🍃🌾🌷🌲
