A dog sled or chiens de traineaux is a sled designed to be fired by one or more
dogs to travel on ice or snow. Although it is unknown the date of invention,
the first Siberian dog sledding are cited in Arabic literature from the tenth
century. Different types of dogs can be used, including the Alaskan, Siberian
Husky or Alaskan Malamute. Throughout the year, our huskies sleigh will make

The dog teams are usually chiens de traineau on the snow or ice (there are also wheel
vehicles called "go-carts"), by means of harnesses and related lines.
Today, they are mostly used in sled races. The dog leader is appointed by the
musher term. Nevertheless, it seems that this practice was very sporadic until
the time. In Europe, the use of the sled dog is very old, probably around the
year thousand. Although few mentioned by historians, it is widespread in the
nineteenth century. From the eighteenth century, of police regulations prohibit
the use of Versailles dog harness cars and tropicbirds of Paris drawn by dogs.
This method of traction nevertheless persists in the Paris region.
