Our New "Conex" Storage Container

For those of you who have asked for more "behind the scenes" stories, here's one we think you'll like.

Although SP Kennel is a relatively small sled dog racing kennel, there's still a staggering amount of "stuff" on hand.

We've got a "pole barn" that we store some of it in. It's covered, but still open to the elements. We've also got a small "feed shed" that we store dog food in. It's enclosed, but too small for the massive volume of food that gets delivered on a regular basis. As a result, many bags of kibble end up spending time stacked up outside, along with a ton of other "stuff."

Recently, Horizon Lines -- our good friends and Kennel sponsors -- offered to help us out with our storage problem by sending us a Conex container that has been "retired" from its work life on cargo ships. It arrived a few weeks ago, and Aliy shot this video of the arrival and positioning process.

You know we have a saying around here that "It's never easy!" Well, here's a great example of that saying in action... Just one of the many, many "behind the scenes" activities at SP Kennel!
