Joanna's Copper Dog Race 2021
This is Joanna's write up of the race. Just got home from the Copper Dog Sled dog race last night and as always such a great race/event they put on!!!! Thank you so much to all the race directors/organizers/vets/volunteers/sponsors who helped to make this race happen this year with all the difficulties!!!!! Thank you also to our awesome friends and host family Mike and Suzi who have hosted us for 8 years now!!! Usually its just for the one night in Copper Harbor but this year with the changed format we stayed with them three nights! Sadly one of my two main leaders was out of the race before it began, which was very discouraging. She had been fine before we left to the best of my knowledge so somehow got hurt during loading from home as she was limping slightly at our first drop:( Had the vets checking her out every day and on Sunday morning they thought possibly a partially torn cruciate ligament but not sure.) I hope not but will get it checked out soon. So that was not good
