A new chapter begins!

We’re excited to share that we have officially started our own kennel — Sunset Chasers Kennel!

With this new adventure, we’ve updated our page name to reflect our new kennel name. While the name may be new, you’ll still find the same dogs, mushing adventures, training updates, races, and life on the trail right here.

We would also like to give a very special thank you to Vern Halter and Susan Whiton for their incredible support, mentorship, and dedication over the past several years. They have shared so much of their knowledge and experience with us, trusted us with their dogs, and helped make this journey possible. We truly would not be where we are today without them!❤️

We’re incredibly excited for this next chapter.

Welcome to Sunset Chasers Kennel!

Today was a bittersweet day...🐾

Today was Kafka’s last time in harness. After an incredible career, he is officially retiring and heading to an amazing family on the East Coast—and the best part is that he’ll be joining his brother Twain! ❤️ I know he is going to have the retirement life he deserves.

Kafka has been such a huge part of my journey. He was on every race team of mine, including all of my qualifying races and my 2026 Iditarod team. He is one heck of a leader, and I’m incredibly grateful for every mile we’ve traveled together.

Today made things feel especially full circle. Kafka’s son AC/DC ran in lead alongside him for his final run. Watching them up front together was pretty special. Kafka may be hanging up his harness, but he’s passing the torch on to his sons and the next generation. 🔥

Thank you for everything, Kafka. For every mile, every trail, and every time you confidently led us forward. Now it’s time to enjoy retirement with Twain. You’ve earned it, buddy. 🐾

Some good progress was made at Sunset Chasers Kennel this weekend! 🐾🔨

It feels like the to-do list never ends, but we checked quite a few things off:
🔹 Trench dug and poles placed for lights in the dog yard
🔹 Trail work
🔹 Foundation issues worked on
🔹 Vents installed
🔹 Fuel tank delivered
🔹 Electrical work done
🔹 Insulation done.....kind of!
🔹 Exterior flashing installed

Next up… the plumber! 🚰

We were also incredibly thankful to have some extra hands this weekend. Abby and Janice came out Sunday and helped us tackle projects, and Rich joined us Monday. Having friends willing to give up their time to help us means more than they know. ❤️

We are TIRED, but we’re learning a lot through this whole process and slowly watching Sunset Chasers Kennel come together. One project at a time! 🐕🛷

Thank you, Abby, Janice, and Rich! We appreciate you guys so much!

THANK YOU to our mystery Amazon Wishlist donor!

Yesterday, we received a wonderful package from our Amazon Wishlist filled with hand and foot warmers, trash bags, and dog bowls— all things we can use!!! 🐾❤️

Unfortunately, there wasn’t a packing slip included, so we don’t know who to thank personally. If these goodies were from you, please know how incredibly grateful we are! 🙏

Every donation, big or small, makes such a difference and helps us continue caring for the animals in our community. These practical items may seem simple, but they are so incredibly helpful to us!

Thank you, mystery donor!!

🐾 THANK YOU, HEIDI FOX!🐾

Starting a new kennel is no small feat—and it definitely isn’t an inexpensive one! Every sponsorship and bit of support helps us provide the best care, nutrition, gear, and training for our incredible dogs. Your support truly means the world to us, Heidi! 🥰

Thank you for helping us chase sunsets and dreams down the trail!

Pups are growing and this week started wearing collars. They are growing up so fast! They will soon get their big collars once they learn that collars are not chew toys!
