John and Mary Thiel bought their first sled dog 20 years ago. After experiencing the thrill of dog sledding, the couple bought another dog… and then another… until finally deciding to try to make a living at running dog sledding trips for others.

Andrea Thalasinos is another Wisconsin musher who fell in love with Siberian huskies and recreational dog sledding.
