adopt a husky
Tourism in Lapland has stopped. So has all of our husky tours. Snowmobiles, skis and snowshoes are easy to put in storage but our four legged friends need food and caretaking on daily basis. This is where we need your help!
Harriniva Arctic sleddog centre needs your help!
Covid-19 virus has put our business on hold and the upcoming winter doesn’t look that promising. Biggest concern we have at the moment is our four-legged friends. Snowmobiles, skis and snowshoes we can leave in storage but our husky teams need food and caretaking daily.
In order for our sleddog centre to survive the upcoming winter we’ve set up a programme called Adopt a husky.
You can help us to cover the food and medical costs of our huskies and at the same time purchase a safari for when the time to travel comes.
In return we’re offering virtual tours to our sleddog centres in Harriniva and Torassieppi.
We are also going live on social media where you get to know the daily routines with huskies and ask any questions you have in mind.
You will get monthly updates from your husky, pictures and video from the training and safaris throughout the year!
You can take a virtual guided tour around our kennel and take part in training the dogs.
You can also take a virtual husky safari in the surroundings of Torassieppi
Book your your tour at the same time
When you take part on the programme you’re also purchasing a gift card for a husky tour in the future!
Gift cards are valid until end of winter season 2022. You can also donate or give the gift card to somebody as a present.
Our huskies to adopt
Arctic sleddog centre of Harriniva has 8 packs of huskies and Torassieppi has 2 packs of huskies.
