Allen dropped Chica in Finger Lake this morning. The excellent weather made for an easy transfer back to Anchorage. Doug and Mickey Zirkle picked her up this afternoon after a short flight in a Cessna 180.
Chica had a wrist injury on the Yukon Quest. It had almost completely healed but it looks like she hit a hole and injured it again. When they picked her up, Chica has a slightly swollen left wrist. All her vital signs are normal and her appetite is good. She will remain on anti inflammatory meds for a few days.
Doug picks up Chica from the Dog Drop volunteers behind the Millenium Hotel in Anchorage. Jennifer, Chica, Kathleen and Doug.
The Anchorage Dog Drop vets and volunteers are a dedicated crew. SP Kennel thanks them all for putting the health of our racing dogs first.Labels: Iditarod
