Here's the deal: there are good ones & bad ones in every aspect of dog ownership & dog sports. There are great/good mushers & there are bad ones. There are great racing greyhound owners/kennels & there are bad ones. (There are great racehorse-Thoroghbred-owners/farms & there are bad ones) There are great Schutzhund trainers & there are bad ones. And most of all, there are great pet owners & there are bad ones. That's just the way it is.
These dogs were bred to work. If people don't like it, then don't own a husky & don't worry yourself with the races. I see that it's just another case of a handful of people doing wrong & now every musher is a horrible piece of **** who beats their dogs & rarely feeds them thus we must end dog sledding. It's total b.s. And it goes hand-in-hand with PETA's way of thinking. Because it just starts there. First you end dog sledding, then you do away with huskies, then you end greyhound racing, then you do away with greyhounds, then you end lure coursing, then you do away with all sighthounds, then you do away with rabbit hunting, then you do away with most hounds (beagles, foxhounds, bassetts, etc) then you do away with Schutzhund, Ringsport & PP, & then you do away with Rottweilers, Doberman Pinschers, GSDs, Belgian Malinois (& all other guardian breeds)........& it continues on until you have nothing left but "pet" owners who dogs do nothing more than exist. And then you have to focus on all those horrible pet owners who abuse & neglect their dogs so then now all pet owners are animal abusers & whanot & POOF............there are no more domesticated dogs & no more dog ownership.
