The Husky safari has been open for 20 years during that time it has gone through changes its name to Lapland Husky Safaries Oy. Lapland husky safari is small company that is operating near that Santa clauses village, where they operate and focuses on huskies and sled pulling teaching the guests how to operate huskies when they are pulling the sled. They are giving instructions on safety of the dogs and the guests. Their goal is give the visiters excitement of controlling their own sled.

My visit in husky safari they told they have over 312 dogs  in the husky safari which it takes about 45 minutes to feed all of them. Each dogs as their name uniquely give on their personality and the way they look, since each dog behaves differently. As well that all the adult male dogs are not in cages but they are outs side on a leash with their own space. When each prepearing dogs to go on the sleds pulling visiters the number of dogs depending on how long will the dogs travel, if was short distance of they place six dogs on sled where males are in the back since they have more strength they are the onces pulling sled and females are in front they are the once leading the sled, their mentality that female dogs are more patient and smarter  which is true.  When dogs are on longer distance they use 12 dogs with the same concept, but they do not allow children to operate sleds by themselves but they have a guide that will do them because the dogs do have a lot of power and for safety reasons. On more thing is that is for huskies -20 degrees Celsius is perfect weather for them since they are able to run for longer periods of time  more often than in the summer.
