Máni is born in the year 2020 and is a son of Sól and Sauron (from Sweden).

In the Kennel he is one of the sweetest calmest dogs that loves cuddles and attention but when you attach him to the sled it is like pushing the explosion button... he just wants to run and people are in his way and he does not want to talk to them, except maybe for 2 minutes if he is in the lead. So usually we start training the dogs for pulling the sled between 8 and 9 months old and usually when they are between 11 and 12 months old they can start working a little bit. But not Máni... he had to have allot of patience training because 2 seconds after we stop he started screaming and just wanted to keep on running and just did not see people around him he just saw the track and wants to go. Now after years of training he can be calm for up to 5 minutes but then he looses it... and then just stay away from him. He has never bitten anybody but how he is behaving can be a bit scarry. And than when he is not working hi is the sweetest thing... crazy how the will to work can change the character completely.
Máni is also one of our best leaders especially in bad weather. He has a super good compass and a map in his head and the will to work 😊
Here is a little reel we made with him leading the sled with a family with young children in bad weather:
