Organizing visits to student classes at The Husky Experience, both children and older, means accompanying the kids to know a world that will reserve many surprises, and will teach many things: not only on the sleddog itself, but also on our sweetest Siberian Huskies, on the relationship that can be established with a dog and how much this can be training for the person.
Now many scientific studies agree that the relationship with a dog, for the growth of a child or boy, generates many positive influences, increasing self-esteem, a sense of responsibility and empathy towards others, making it more extroverts and refining his sensory perception.
In our centers, Luca and his staff will teach many things about dogs, their characteristics and their needs, making children and animals familiar in the correct way so that the dog is considered a playmate and life, able to give infinite sweetness and affection, and not a creature to be subdued.
Sleddog is a discipline that is practiced together, and not through the dog. There is a great respect for the role of our beloved four-legged sledding dogs, and for their well being. This means that the sleddog reserves a fundamental component that is that of cooperation between man and dog, which in the collective imagination is not always very clear.
Sleddog is a metaphor of life, in which if you can team up and everyone does their part, everyone can feel good and goals are achieved. In the world around us, man is only one of the figures that inhabit our beautiful planet, and this implies that there must be a deep conscience and a profound respect for nature and for all other living beings.
At The Husky Experience we are not only taught to practice a sport that we love, but to share the love for nature, for the mountains, and to find joy and fun in something that is beautiful and at the same time that makes us feel alive and complete as people.
Organize a visit or a training day at our centres is easy, just contact us and together we can organize a great time when you will learn while having fun, and that will remain for a long time in the memory of children or young people.
Even groups of adults are welcome, because it's never too late to get to know and start living a fascinating world like that of sled dog. Our instructors, experts and extremely available, are always happy to pass on our passion!
