Bev Stevens of the Markley's Alaskan Rockers team is 77 years old and still still racing dogs proving that you are never too old to continue doing what you love or to enjoy the winters in Alaska.
Bev and Milt had 11 dogs living in the house for 3 years. Bev says " it is like having a large family where there has to be rules and structure.
For example, my dogs leave the dining room when we eat and cannot beg for food. They do not touch food that is laying around, on the coffee table or on the kitchen counter. They cannot bark because we live in a subdivision. The rule at feeding time is that no dog can interfere when another dog is eating."
