She laughed when friends commented on how she worked The Alaskans like a fighting cat act, with whip cracking, and extra whips laid out on the ring curb. In 1965, I made her a full whip, on a twisted willow whipstock, with a plaited flat lash, and a handful of rolled and waxed Barbour's flax poppers.
Is there any video on line of her act anywhere? I've raised Huskies for over 40 yrs and am amazed by the skill to get them to do an act like this. I can see how using the whips to distract and reinforce as helpful with these guys.
