Sled Dogs in Edinburgh

By Ros @scotlandphohos

I went down to Holyrood park this afternoon to see the sled dogs in Edinburgh for the fantastically named ‘Dogmanay’ event. This is a sled dog racing without the snow. Sled dogs include Alaskan Malamutes, Canadian Eskimo Dogs, Greenland Dogs, Samoyeds and Siberian Huskies – and they’re utterly photogenic!.

There’s so much going on around Hogmanay that it’s hard to decide what to get to. I’d never been to see dog sled racing before. Unfortunately, the racing finished early, so I still haven’t had that experience! But there were plenty of digs around. The dogs were fantastic, and plenty of the owners were very obliging, and encouraging their dogs to pose for photos.
