We are proud to have assembled one of the finest vet teams around. Dedicated to the dogs and the sports, our vets have decades of combined experience specifically working with sled dogs. They bring a wealth of knowledge and are a critical part of our commitment to dog care. In addition the are an invaluable resource to the mushers on the trail. In addition research done by vets on the trail has added greatly to what we know about distance sled dog and how to better care for them.

Head Vet Dr Christina Hansen DVM

Dr Hansen has been volunteering with the YQA for many years. And we are extremely lucky she takes time off her busy job as the head of the University of Alaska Veterinary program to join us on the trail. She leads a highly qualified team of experienced vets. Dr Hansen has also involved her students in research and support on the trail.
