A great sleddog guide is active, social and a true team player. She / he keeps her / his cool in tricky situations and is there where needed in a blink of an eye should anything surprising happen. She / He is a customer service oriented and maybe has previous experience with working dogs. Sleddog guides work in an international environment, so good oral skills in English are essential and other language skills are as advantage (French and German).
Guides need to have First Aid skills, a driving license (B) and Hygiene certificate. The work demands physical strength and good nerves as well as ability to react fast to unexpected situations but all the effort is rewarded tenfold by the dogs happy to see you and customers enjoying their "once in a lifetime" ride! So, if you like people, wanna have a physical work, love dogs and are not afraid to work outside what ever the weather is, then this for sure is your place to work.
