Tony and Amy were awesome. Very friendly and knowledgeable hosts. They took time introducing each of us to the beautiful dogs. Answered any questions we had. One of our daughters (11) wants to do this every spring break and our son (8) wanted to take all the dogs home with him. Highly recommend this adventure. Thank you both for one of the best days.

What a once in a lifetime experience! The dogs absolutely love what they are doing at this site! The staff was so welcoming and friendly with their animals. I would tell anyone who is looking to do this it is ABSOLUTELY worth the experience. The ride is definitely like a roller coaster and not the most comfortable thing but you’re on a freaking sled pulled by dogs! This is a bucket list checkbox for anyone!

Such an awesome experience from start to finish. The staff was extremely nice, knowledgeable and welcoming. They introduced us to the dogs who are super friendly and we had a great time petting and being around the dogs. The ride was amazing and an adventure of a lifetime! The trail was blanketed with fresh snow. I would recommend a dogsled ride with endurance kennels to anyone visiting the Duluth or surrounding areas.

Had such an amazing time up at Endurance Kennels! Staff were very professional, knowledgeable and friendly! My boyfriend surprised me with this and I was not disappointed! Such a great thing to check off as an amazing adventure! Got to meet and pet the dogs (not to pick favorites but I loved Groot 😊) and the ride was such a breathtaking thrill! Thanks so much for such a great experience!!

My husband, 3 year old and I had a fantastic time! We got all the dog kisses and pets an animal lover could want. We were greeted upon arrival and right away got to meeting the dogs! My son could not have been more happy, he kept telling us how awesome it was even after we left. The sled dog ride was more then I expected, much like a dog pulled roller coaster. Those dogs are true athletes! We check this off our bucket list!

What a wonderful experience the Endurance Kennel was able to provide my girlfriend and I! Prior to our ride we were able to walk through the kennel with a guide who answered our questions and allowed us to meet and pet these enthusiastic athletes. The ride was a combination of feelings of exhilaration and tranquility as we roved through the snow covered forest. I highly recommend the tour in which you get to standing on the runners!

We had our 2016 Christmas family get together at Endurance Kennels. Tone and his staff made us a bonfire and provided hot apple cider. They were very accommodating and taught us all about their dogs while getting a hands on experience. Highly recommended!

Going dogsledding was a great experience—loved being out in the woods on a winter day. It was fun to meet many of the dogs before our tandem ride

I was looking around my map and saw your kennel, forgot why I knew the name, then read the review by tipper and it hit me. I was in that group. I read your response and though I no longer live in Duluth, I feel inclined to say something.You are lying. We brought no firearms to your door because I find it impolite. (I might have had my holster but I assure you it was empty) You also lied to the sheriff and told them we destroyed part of your property when you know very well that isnt true. They stopped us and explained to us all of your claims, most of which were untrue, then apologized to us and sent us on our way. So no harm no foul.I apologise for scaring you and for taking up your time, and I dont think you deserve a poor business review hence me giving you five stars. However, if youre going to respond to someone to defend yourself, I highly recommend not contorting the facts. We were about to use public land that Ive personally used dozens of times, and out of respect for you and your establishment and by better ease, we went with your suggestion and doubled back to a different location.Keep up the good work with your business and have a nice winter.

Very interesting and fun experience! Definitely something out of the ordinary to do on a trip up north. Got to meet all the dogs and learned a little about sledding. The ride was very smooth and quiet, enjoyed visiting with our sled operator who was a very pleasant person. Highly recommend this to everyone!

This was a magical experience from meeting all the dogs to the sled ride with a hunky Eskimo. I would highly recommend. This dude has 40 dogs and knows all their names, he obviously loves them. Everyone should do this at some point in their lives. Thanks for the incredible experience!

I had an absolutely incredible experience out at Endurance Kennels today. Tone, the owner, was outside waiting for me when I arrived, and immediately I was blown away by the welcome I got from all the dogs! Tone took me around to meet all of them, and I got plenty of hugs and friendly licks from all of them! It was a great start in just the first few minutes.After a quick lesson on how to operate the sled, I was able to harness my two buddies for the day, Ollie and Valor, and we were off and running.It took a few minutes to get the hang of it, but before you knew it, I was letting the those guys cut loose and really run... and it was exhilarating! The trails and scenery were amazing, a true Northwoods experience.An absolute must if you’re in the Duluth area, and well worth traveling to! Thanks again, Tone, Ollie, and Valor!

We had a lot of fun despite bitterly cold day on December 29. Our family member from Italy joined us in the MN adventure. Dogs are beautiful and lovely and they seemed to enjoy running in the cold weather. Tone, Natalie, and the other crew members were all very friendly, kind, and helpful. It was bitterly cold and beautiful at the same time. Highly recommended experience. Dog sledding is an art and activity that should be cherished and nourished for centuries to come.

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic time time, we did the Lead Dog Ride. Tone was very knowledgeable, friendly, and a true professional. The roughly 40 dogs he keeps are all obviously well cared for and happy, and seem to love running. Id recommend this place to anyone interested, the prices are a bargain for the experience and memories.

If you havent been dog sledding it is definitely an experience you need to add to your bucket list! Tone is a wonderful guide & his dogs are amazingly sweet. The scenery along the trails is stunning during the day, and the stars at night (during the moonlight ride) are beautiful. Its such a wonderful way to spend an afternoon or evening!

Best Birthday Surprise ever! I love how Tony gets us involved with the dogs, we got to meet them, get them set up and put on the harnesses. We ran into some horses on the trail and one got a little spooked by the dogs but Tony was so calm and patient ...and not to mention so incredibly kind. I dont know how my BF is going to top this birthday in the future but I do know well be doing this again, tradition for sure! Thanks Tone! What an amazing experience!!!

Our experience with Endurance Kennels was great! We enjoyed the happy, playful dogs just as much as we enjoyed being pulled through the woods! We learned so much about sled dogs and mushing from Tone and his staff! This was definitely something I can cross off my bucket list! I cant wait to book a time for next winter!

A family member of ours bought us this as a Christmas gift. Somewhere along the way there was some miscommunication on reservation times, but they worked us right in! We thank you so much for taking the time to fit us in and admire your line of work! If you want to experience something different.. Its worth the drive! Fun dogs too 👍
