The Denali Litter

The theme for this litter celebrates the 100th anniversary of Denali National Park & Preserve (founded as Mount McKinley National Park, in 1917).

Matrix (f)

Born: 6/9/2017

Matrix came to us as a pup from Wayne and Scarlett Hall in Eagle (hence her different birth date); but her father, Wilder, was from our 2015 “Find Your Park” litter. We adopted Wilder out as a pup to Wayne and Scarlett and they raised and trained him into an awesome lead dog. Matrix is focused, mature and determined. She is all business when she is working and all sweetness when it is time to snuggle. Matrix’s piercing blue eyes are sure to draw visitors to her yard, and her sweet demeanor keeps them there giving her pets for as long as she desires.

Nepa (f)

Born: 9/4/2017

Nepa is a strong and focused female leader. She is always excited to run and pull and can be sassy to the dog next to her if they do not share her enthusiasm. Nepa is a huge cuddle bug in the cabins in the winter and she is often found asking visitors for belly rubs in the summer.

Nepa is named for the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) pronounced "knee-pa".

Steward (m)

Born: 9/4/2017

As a young puppy, Steward was the first at everything. The first to be born, the first to explore the exciting new world outside the puppy dog house, the first to roam around and climb on the puppy play pen.

He was the smallest of the litter, but by far the bravest! He has a curious old soul, and we all enjoyed seeing him tackle challenging winter conditions on the trail with the same bravery he’s shown since the day he was born.

He is currently one of our best leaders; he loves breaking trail through deep snow.

Story (f)

Born: 9/4/2017

Story is very similar to her mama, Clove. They have the same striking blue eyes, piercing “give me attention” bark, and infinite capacity for snuggles and love. Story is the “kennels cheerleader” with her constant energy and vocal enthusiasm to keep everyone moving on the trail during any and every break. When it's time to go, it sometimes takes Story awhile to figure out she should be running and not barking.

Topo (m)

Born: 9/4/2017

Topo is our sweet blue eyed boy from the Team Denali litter. He’s one of the few dogs in our kennel that has the classic curly-Q husky tail. Topo always has a good attitude and seems to never tire. Instead of curling up to take a nap after long days of bounding through deep snow, he likes to make himself busy by trying to dig the deepest snow tunnels he can. Topo is very talkative just like all of his siblings.
