A
Group of Friends Hike Together

A group of friends with Northern-breed dogs gets together for sledding in the winter
and now for packing in the summer. The image above shows Phil and Lisa Gravelle &
Moira, Conrad, and Hartley Towriss-Smith all hiking with their Samoyeds in the lush Hidden
Valley near Craven, Saskatchewan, Canada. They hope to encourage more of their
friends to take up packing and join them on the trail.
Eight year old Conrad Smith sits with
Buffy
who wears a Medium Teal Banzai Pack. Next to him is Moira
Towriss-Smith with Kazan in his Royal Blue Trekker.
Hartley Smith is next to Rick (Red dog pack) who appears to be howling with
delight. Moira told us that Buffy could have used a Small pack for her size, but navigates
very well with the Medium. The Towriss-Smiths kennel name is Anoka Samoyeds, which is
located near Regina, Saskatchewan.
Colleen and Marty Hovind hike among the wildflowers with their
lovely Siberian Huskies P.J. and Mitchell. Both are using
their Burgundy Trekker dog packs. Colleen and Marty Hovind's kennel is
Heirborn Siberians, located in Craven, Saskatchewan.
Phil, Lisa, and one year old Santana Gravelle hike among a
beautiful display of spring wildflowers with their three Samoyeds. Mufasa
wears a Burgundy Trekker, while Taiyna and Tundra
both use Black Trekker dog packs, all size Medium. Phil and Lisa operate
Philisa Samoyeds in Lumsden, Saskatchewan.
Moira organized all seven dog packs together into one order, so we gave her a discount for
the group. Hopefully this helped with import fees and shipping costs to Canada. You might

her dog's packs.
