"Sharleen LaVallee, one of the dog handlers, explained that most of the dogs were "rescue" animals and loved sledding. They certainly seemed suitably eager to run in a pack, pulling anything - or anyone - silly enough to grab hold. It was all LaVallee, a large, strong woman who doubles as a Toronto cop and the first female Harley-Davidson mechanic in Canada, could do to keep them from taking off before we were ready."

From "It's a slippery slope: Do it right or the dog gets it", Ferne Arfin, The Sunday Telegraph, 9 October 2006
