Day 50, 2/19/2011

The girls wait patiently for their favorite treat.

Yummy Chummies are manufactured in Anchorage and are made with wild Alaska salmon. Fish is one of the best foods for a dog.

Chum salmon are also known as dog salmon, because subsistence users in Alaska often catch and store them to feed to their dog teams.

Iditarod and Yukon Quest champion musher Lance Mackey buys salmon from the hatchery in Valdez to feed the dogs in his kennel.
