Retired Sled Dog Adoption Program

At Tugah, our sled dogs are an important part of our family. After years of adventures on the trails, we want to ensure they have the opportunity to enjoy a happy and comfortable retirement in a loving home.

Through our retired sled dog adoption program, we help our dogs find their next chapter with families who can provide the care, companionship, and love they deserve.
