Husky ( Balto )
Size 40”H X 45”L X 16”W

Siberian Huskies are a medium-sized working dogs. Their compact bodies are built for endurance, so they can pull sleds for miles without running out of energy. They have beautiful fluffy, thick double coats that require regular grooming. Their ears are close-fitting and sit high on the head. One of the most notable features on a Siberian Husky is their blue or brown almond-shaped eyes; some dogs have one of each!

Balto was a Siberian Husky sled dog belonging to musher and breeder Leonhard Seppala. He achieved fame when he was reportedly the lead dog of the team of sled dogs driven by Gunnar Kaasen on the final leg of the 1925 serum run to Nome, in which diphtheria antitoxin was transported from Anchorage, Alaska, to Nenana, Alaska, by train and then to Nome by dog sled to combat an outbreak of the disease.

In January 1925 doctors realized that a potentially deadly diphtheria epidemic was poised to sweep through Nome’s young people. The only serum that could stop the outbreak was in Anchorage, Alaska. After considering all of the alternatives, officials decided to move the medicine via multiple dog sled teams. More than 20 mushers took part, facing a blizzard with -23 °F (−31 °C) temperatures and strong winds. News coverage of the event was worldwide.

On February 2, 1925, the final team and its driver, Ed Rohn, believed Kaasen and the relay were halted in nearby Solomon due to inclement weather, and so were asleep when Kaasen and Balto made it to this final relay point – Kaasen decided to continue on, in order to save the time it would take to change sleds and hitch up a new team. He traveled the remaining 25 miles to Nome, and arrived at Front Street at 5:30 AM. All ampules of the antitoxin were intact, and Kaasen handed them over to be thawed for use by mid-day.
