Draco spring 2005

"DRACO"
FIVE TIME IDITAROD VETERAN
NorthWapiti's Draco - Born: November 5th, 1997
(NorthWapiti's Butch Cassidy SD x NorthWapiti's S.S. Minnow SDX)

Draco took his time maturing and we were worried that his easily distractible demeanor in harness (he would get distracted by falling leaves and butterflies in fall training) would make him unsuitable for serious racing.

In 2001, the last spot one the Iditarod team was between him and another veteran bitch, on the advice of Mark and Jamie Nelson, Karen choose Draco and never once regretted it - he was focused and hard working the entire Race.  He is starting off this season with the same serious attitude! Although around the kennel he is still one of the most lovable! A definite favorite around here!
