Medea
Find out where the name came from
We don't often give Medea the credit she deserves in establishing us as a racing kennel. The mother of two of the four litters that we have bred to date she has produced 9 exceptional puppies, eight of whom I expect to be at the core of the team this winter and all eight very strong leaders. No mean leader in her own right, Medea led pretty much start to finish on our first short mid distance race, the Eagle Lake 100, when she was still just two years old. In 2013 she came very close to running on the Quest team and with hindsight she probably should have done. I did think that last  winter may have been her final in harness but, well, you're a long time retired and she still acts like a puppy so she'll be leading out teams again this winter.
