What does a musher say to stop his team of dogs?
The musher will perform health checks on each dog at each rest stop - generally in the morning, at a lunch break (if taken) and at the end of the day. Each dog will be checked for overall attitude, movement and the paws and legs carefully checked for signs of abrasions, cuts, swelling or pain. The fit of the harnesses will also be checked daily before starting to ensure it is not causing pain or pressure points. The musher will also provide food, water and appropriate shelter as needed during the race. If a dog appears to be flagging or having difficulties, a responsible musher will pull out of the race to care for the dog. At the designated veterinary checkpoints along the way, the race veterinarian can also pull dogs out of the competition for health reasons.
What are the keys to having a winning team in the Iditarod?
I would say the trust and relationship between the dog and the musher. The musher has to be able to put all their trust into their dogs, and the dogs have to be able to put all their trust into their trainer. The musher and dog must know how to communicate with each other at sudden moments. They must be able to react the moment they hear that key word, or who knows what could happen... The musher must treat the dogs kindly, and gently but get the point across at times. If the musher is harsh or violent to the dog, you never know what the dog's reaction will be. It may even be the difference between life and death, so you have to be able to put 100% trust into your canine leaders.
