MARCH 20, 2014

Just wanted to mention one other thing about the Iditarod. The Veterinarians are an integral part of this race. They volunteer their time and have to go where they are sent. They have to be available when the dogs come in, day and night, and check each team out as they go thru the checkpoints. They follow stringent rules. They are wonderful with the dogs (and with the mushers) and each year they choose one Vet that stood out. This year they were unable to do that. THey chose, instead, to honor all the Vets as each and everyone of them did their important job with care, professionalism, kindness, concern, and with a smile. I have been talking with my Vet here in Pleasant Valley, I won't mention who as she did not give me permission to do so, and she is now going either next year or the following to volunteer her time.
I am soooo excited. I will try to be there when she is.
