Teamwork! Betty the Iditarod Sled Dog

Jack Rotifer

Description

A dog named Betty dreams of being on a sled team in the Iditarod race across Alaska. She finds out that hard work and teamwork are important, but real success is always doing your best!
Betty and her puppy brothers and sisters are born to be snow dogs. From a very young age, Betty knows this and dreams of being on a sled team, one day racing in the famous Iditarod across Alaska. This is no easy accomplishment, but Betty is dedicated to her dream.
Betty grows up and becomes strong and calm, happy to be a wheel dog and close to her musher, Catherine. The dogs train together and prepare for the race. Eventually, they are ready for the Iditarod. They might not win, but along with her siblings, Betty has learned that the most important thing is to do your best.
After the race, Betty and her team go to the Wyoming Stage Stop Race, where Betty meets a young girl named Marie. Catherine has watched Betty’s behavior and understands that Betty would rather be a pet now that her dream has come true. Betty goes to live with her new family and begins a wonderful new life.

Chapter 1—Betty Grows Up
This story starts June 6, 2006, the day Betty is born. She has two brothers and one sister. Fred, Barney, and Wilma are her siblings. Sled dog naming usually has a theme for the litter. Their mom is a malamute, and their dad is a German shorthaired pointer. This mixture of breeding will give the new pups the fortitude for sled racing in the coldest of temperatures and the energy for the endurance of a sled race. They are beyond cute and grow quickly under the watchful eye of their mother. They run and play and look up to the sled dogs whom they one day hope to run with in the greatest of all sled races, the Iditarod!
