Mushing 101

Heartland Mushers Association Inc. is partnering with Elkhart County Parks once again to offer a two-hour crash course on dog mushing. Dog owners are invited to bring their canine companions and see if they have what it takes to mush through a series of dryland training techniques and try their hand on a temporary dryland trail. Dogs must be at least 15 pounds to participate.
