Sled-dogs

Sled-dogs (La. "rekikoirat", sing. "rekikoira") have very thick coats to resist the cold, and for sheer power and stamina they are more than the equal of any wolf or war-dog. They have deep, heavily-muscled chests and strong hind legs. Their fur ranges from grey to white in color, with short, curling tails and pointed, alert ears atop their heads. The Lumimiehet alone use the dogs to pull sleds or, in rough country, as pack animals. Any sled-dogs "gone wild" or having returned to a wilderness state quickly readapt to domesticity, and unprovoked attacks are rare.
