Scots sled dogs' golden hat-trick
Scotland have won three gold medals at the Dry Land Sled Dog Racing Championships in Belgium.
Steven Lindsay, from Dumfries, and Keith Johnson, from Kilmaurs, Ayrshire, successfully defended their six-dog and four-dog titles, respectively.
Making up the hat-trick of wins was Graeme Scott, also from Dumfries, who won the eight-dog category.

the clue is in the sport - 'dry land' sled dog racing. _________________ "Every single person on this planet is unique. Just like everyone else..." - Random Guy in Edinburgh Pub

I remember Reporting Scotland had a feature on this. I'm not sure where they practice. Most definitely a minority sport though . |
