Our Team

Chase is sister to Jumper and comes from Shishmaref, a small community in northwestern Alaska. She is very vocal and affectionate, and like her sister is always moving. She had never been in harness prior to coming to live at ReRun, but we are hopeful she will continue her enthusiasm and want to run the big miles with the race team!

Tiny crazy Cray sure lives up to her name! We purchased her from Wade at the end of winter 2023 and she has settled right in. Her favorite spot in the team seems to be in swing right behind the leaders. Whenever she gets excited she picks up her metal bowl and runs around in circles, and then she tosses it inside her house and bounces it off all the walls in a drum solo. We love this little spitfire and are excited to have her on the team!

Darwin and his brother Lamarck make up the "evolution" litter that was born at our cabin during a snowstorm in December of 2021. Their mother is Tica from Wade Marrs. Darwin is a natural at the game of fetch and loves chasing tennis balls during the summer. He is on his way to be a confident leader and we expect him to be a go-to front end dog this year.

Domino was adopted from the Fairbanks animal shelter and is easily the craziest dog in the yard. Despite being dialed in on the mushing scene, he still takes a ridiculous amount of time to harness and has been known to break noses in his excitement to get onto the gangline. Once in motion, he is a smooth, strong energizer bunny who never wants to stop!

Felix was given to us by TJ Schrader who got him from Joar Ulsom. He is from Norway and has the thickest most luxurious coat. He is an amazing puller who prefers being in the back of the team where he can settle into autopilot and trot along. Felix is a solid reliable dog who can go for hundreds of miles.

Fly and her brother Tippet were adopted from the Fairbanks animal shelter and make up the "fly fishing" litter. Fly is very outgoing, sweet, and irresistibly cute. She has made it clear she was a leader from the second we put her in harness. She has led multiple races and never waivers in her confidence, drive, or appetite. 

Jumper started off as a foster from Shishmaref and we decided to adopt her. Per her name, she is springy and energetic and never stops moving. Jumper had never been in harness prior to us adopting her, but she shows a lot of promise. She has given us full confidence that the race team is where she wants to be, so we have high hopes for this little girl.

KitKat is the spicy little sister to Kevlar and is an absolute nut. She will bark for the first mile of every run and twists herself in circles if you take too long to get going. She is a tornado in a 30lb dog body and tears up the trail ahead of her. Her specialty is running in lead where she can be the tiny boss of everyone.

Lamarck is the other half to Darwin. Lamarck was born with only half a tail but makes up for it in attitude! He is rapidly maturing into a very confident lead dog after only one year, and we can't wait to see where he will go as he gets older! His is a strong puller and amazing eater and an absolute joy to have on the trail. 

Lumi was adopted from the Fairbanks animal shelter but came with a bad case of kennel cough that turned to chronic bronchitis. She desperately wants to run but has to be on Prednisone in order to not cough from exercise. We figured out her med doseage last season, so we are going to let her attempt to run on the race team this year where she will be happiest. Fingers crossed for little Lumi!

Phantom was adopted from the Fairbanks animal shelter and has a rough history. He started as a sled dog, was adopted as a pet dog, nipped a child, was brought back to the shelter, and we took him in and brought him back to the sled dog life. The running outlet is just what he needed, and he has shown no issues whatsoever with us here. Phantom excels anywhere in the team, including lead. He is amazingly strong and confident.

Quinn was adopted from the Fairbanks animal shelter and originated from a village, though we don't know which one. She is very tiny - but don't let that fool you! Quinn is all muscle and attitude. She has never missed a run and never missed a meal. Vets have referred to her as the little potato dog as she has an amazing ability to keep weight on during races.

Tippet is brother to Fly and from the Fairbanks animal shelter. He can be a bit shy at first but bonds to you for life once he warms up. Tippet is head-strong otherwise and has found his natural place at the front of the team as long as he doesn't have to enter a checkpoint in lead because of his shyness. His favorite time of day is meal time.

Tuya originally came from Kotzebue and was brought into Nome by PAWS of Nome. After being brought into Fairbanks by Sirius Sled Dogs Rescue, it became clear that this guy is nuts and needs a job! He is a big, strong, goofy boy with a lovely personality. Now that Tuya is a bit older, this will be his first season contending for a spot on the race team.

Vega is from Sirius Sled Dog Rescue (Spook) and Brent Sass bloodlines (Carbon). Because she is one of the few dogs who has been with us her whole life, she has a bossy attitude and thinks she's all that. Vega finished Iditarod 2022 with Kailyn. Her favorite hobby is giving people kisses and then sneakily trying to lick inside their mouths.

Wonder is the cousin of Chase and Jumper and also comes from Shishmaref. She is much calmer and quieter, but that doesn't mean she isn't always ready to go! Similar to Chase and Jumper, Wonder hadn't been in harness prior to coming to live at ReRun. She is figuring it out a day at a time and is so far rocking it!
