Really really loved the experience! Signed up for the kennel tour. Allllll the dogs were so lovely and friendly and so so so cute. Apart from the running dogs, they also have had some new puppies! Eric and his family and team are absolute dog lovers, the dogs are well taken care of and given so much love. There are 48 dogs and they can remember all their names and quirks! The tour was informative and interesting, and we learned quite abit about dog Sledding and how the dogs are trained. We were lucky to get in on the running of the dogs and it was such a fun and insightful time. Eric was also kind to give us some travel tips and some interesting sights in Revelstoke.

Ultimately, definitely will return for another visit when we can. This was truly the highlight of my trip!

We booked in the Fall Kennel Tours, Eric gave us a grand tour to meet most of their 40 dogs and 8 puppies, unfortunately his team member was injured so we can’t go in the kennel run ( I know some company will still charge and run the tour in the shorter time and unsafe, just to make money), but an hour long of petting dogs was a blessing for us. As you go through the tour of getting to know the dogs, you can see they are well loved, trained and behaved. Will try to go back and do a winter run with them again
I was too busy petting all the cute puppies didn’t remember to take a single picture
P.s. A Dog's Way Home, that’s the dog I was talking about that one of yours looks like

We had such a fun tour of the kennels and loved meeting the puppies! It was too warm to run the dogs the day we visited which was a shame but always glad when the health and safety of animals is prioritised. Can’t wait to come back and do some dog sledding one day. Thanks Eric!

Eric is an absolute delight who LOVES his dogs. He gave us a fantastic tour of the kennel and we even got to meet the super cute new puppies.
As a bonus, Eric gave us brilliant suggestions for our drive through Banff.

Had such an awesome time on the kennel tour! 🐾 Eric was not only super knowledgeable but also really entertaining—he made the whole experience so fun. Loved that his tour was all about sharing his passion and insight, not selling us anything. The dogs were so friendly and gentle, and the highlight was definitely cuddling 8 sweet 4-week-old puppies 🐶💛. Already planning to come back for a sledding tour next time we are in the area!

Awesome experience! We did a tour of the kennel and we loved meeting the dogs. Thank you so much for your time, Eric! We hope to come back someday for the winter sledding.

Very nice kennel tour with friendly dogs. We got a lot of information about dogsledding. We recommend this tour!
Absolutely amazing experience, even though we didn't have enough snow to have the full dog sled adventure they still made the experience amazing and gave us a great kennel tour, got us out on the quad and we were able to be hands on with putting on the dogs gear!
All of his dogs are extremely cared for and got very excited when they saw their harnesses! We cant wait to be back and get the full dog sled experience!

The weather prevented us from having our planned tour but Eric more than made up for it by providing an AWESOME Kennel Tour! We got up close and personal with the dogs and got some pretty great puppy kisses. Eric's love for his pets is apparent. We'll absolutely try again sometime!

Our tour was unfortunately cancelled due to the brutal weather and that period being so busy. Between the cold weather snap and the many bookings the pups were exhausted and needed a break. Eric and Connie made the right decision in the best care for their dogs, but invited us to still come and meet the dogs and have a kennel tour, as well as meeting the new puppies! Getting to meet and play with each pup, as well as the puppies was an excellent experience. Eric and Connie were so kind to tour us through and tell us all about their passion of dog sledding. 100% will book again to go back for the full experience!
WOW, The kennel tour was the best adventure we have experienced since we arrived in Canada from Ireland for our road trip across the Rockies. As it was early October the dogsledding experience was not yet operating so my husband and myself booked the kennel tour. What a treat! Eric is an amazing host and his 31 dogs love him to bits. We got up close with all the dogs and got to pet them all. We even got to accompany Eric on a puppy walk through the nearby forest. Book the tour and go with an open mind and an open heart. I am still buzzing. Thanks Eric and family.

We went on the kennel tour at the end of September. The best experience ever. All dogs are so adorable. Unlimited opportunities to pet for those who needs some dog love and hugs. Owner Eric told as so much about dogs and sledding. We had such a great time.
