We are a family of dog lovers and have wanted to visit the Aviemore husky dogs for ages. Last year we tried in vain but twice the owners knocked us back, so when my mother in law came over to the UK from Australia to visit us, we thought that a trip to see the huskies would be a perfect... More

We went and we were luck that it was snowy when we were there, Alan & Fiona were super knowledgable about their dogs and their sport. We have working dogs so know where they are coming from - if you are going to look at pet husky's you are going to the wrong place. Our trip out with the dogs... More

I did the two day course in early Jan, and so pleased I did, both Fiona and Alan are the most welcoming of people who shine in the world of sled dog driving, I cant think of anything that the course didnt cover in one degree or another, from feeding and harnessing to equipment and general awarness and insite into...

A friend and myself took my son to the sleddog centre outside Aveimore. There had been quite a heavy fall of snow so it all looked like a winter wonderland. When we got there we were greeted by Fiona who owns and runs the centre along with Alan her husband. We then watched as the dogs were put into harnesses... More

We went to the Sled Dog Centre In Nov.10. For My Husbands 40th Birthday, we had an amazing time & will never forget the experience. Alan & Fiona are the nicest people you could meet, we learnt so much about their work with the dogs. The trip out with the dogs was absolutely unforgettable & we hope to return to... More

I was lucky enough to spend the day with Alan, Fiona and the dogs as part of a 21st birthday trip. It was incredible. The atmosphere there was amazing, Alan and Fiona extremely, helpful, patient and kind. The trips out with the dogs themselves was special to say the least. They might be loud but their excitement to be going... More

My husband and I took our daughter Molly 11yrs (a sleddog enthusiast) for a day at the Cairngorm sleddog centre. It was third time lucky as out two previous trips had to be cancelled. First time because it was too icy for the dogs to run, second time because it was too hot (the dogs cannot run in temperatures above... More
