Aurora Farm Sled Dogs and Appaloosas

AURORA FARM'S NURSERY SITE

About our "Dog & Pony Show" Aurora Farm is a small, family-run operation, located in the scenic Matanuska Valley, 50 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska. Our home is surrounded by acres of wilderness and an extensive trail system that we use for running dogs, horseback riding, among other activities. We have six kids ranging in age from 7 to 27. Our two main interests are Appaloosa horses and racing Alaskan Huskies. All our kids race dogs, including our youngest, seven year old Sierra. The horses are used for trail riding,breeding, 4H, and open shows. We are interested in breeding Appaloosas that are good using horses of the western type. Color, athleticism, and temperament are important. Our horses are from champion performance and halter bloodlines, while our racing Alaskan Huskies and *Eurohounds* are from some of the best bloodlines the sport has to offer. Gardening is another interest of ours, and every year we compete in the Giant Cabbage Weigh-Off at the Alaska State Fair.
