After it was over and summer was coming there was no use for the dogs. The company took the cheap way out. They just shot them all. We did have a thread on the subject, but I can't find it.

The link, sadly, goes to a generic page and does not mention sled dogs. Maybe that was why I hadn't heard of this before. Anyway, I am surprised that a very civilised country like Canada did not have more of a reaction to the mass killing. (Sorry for the departure from the original topic of this thread!)
