the winter of the three dogs

The Three Dogs were big and muscular, there was Bruno, Kalia but that they look and sound cool. The book gets more better towards the end when the three dogs won the sledding contest at Colorada. Kalia is a husky, which is a type of a wolf. Bruno looks like a black lab mixed with husky. I wish I could have these dogs from The Three Dog Winter. This is a good book. I will rate it a five.

Three Dogs are so Hard to get Sometimes

This book was good I couldn't put it down. Scott has to have three dogs to run in the race, unless he wants to go with the little kids. Kayla and Chinook (Malamutes) are already trained sled dogs but the third dog comes and goes. They finaly end up with three beautiful dogs
