Wildthingz Dog Mushing

One of the best experiences in Alaska! We love dogs, so the trip with Richie was a great experience for us. Lovely hosts who live a passion that can only be envied. A wonderful house in which we did not miss anything. Nearby there is a wonderful stream where you can have a good time. I dream of going back there!

Amazing! Had lots of fun and learned a lot. The dogs were very friendly and so cute! The route we took was also very scenic and pretty with the snow topped mountains and mist. Hosts were amazing and clearly very experienced, answered every single one of my questions easily and were super nice. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

We had an absolute blast at Widthingz! Richie and Emily were amazing and taught us a lot about mushing and the Iditarod. All the dogs were very friendly and interacted well with our kids. Our 9 year old did not want to leave!!

We had an amazing time on the dog mush tour, a highlight of our trip to Alaska! Emily and Richie are so wonderful and so knowledgeable, and really living the life up there! The dogs are the sweetest too. We also stayed at the site in the tent, and had the best time there too! Cannot recommend more highly.

We had the best time in July. These dogs just love to run and get so anxious to go when we stop for some breaks. They are well loved and it shows. Was very informative to learn about the Iditarod race with their gear.

This tour was perfect from start to finish! Richie and Emily were exceptional guides. They took us on a great ride where we got to see the dogs work their magic. They explained the day to day care and demands of caring for their team and were very thorough with their explanations. We learned all about the process of preparing for the Iditarod. We also had a clear view of Denali as a bonus!

Ritchie & Emily do such a great job explaining how and what they do and all that goes into raising and taking care of their beautiful dogs. Humble and loving - so eager to share their life love. Do yourself a favor and make the time to go by and check them out.

I can not say enough great things about this business. It was such a fun interactive learning experience with Emily and Richie. The dogs and the owners love what they do and it shows. Besides learning something about Mushing you will come away with an appreciation of what it takes to travel 1000 miles with a team of dogs. You must schedule a tour and visit this amazing couple. Check them out on IG and FB as well.

We booked Wildthingz at the last moment for our party of 6 and had a great time! On the tour your get to ride with the dog team, get to see them in action and hear all about their dog mushing adventures. Highly recommend for those with kids and kids at heart.

The kindest couple running the most interesting dog mushing business. It was such an amazing experience - we 100% recommend doing this when you're in Denali. We'll definitely be rooting this team on for future races! Good luck Emily & Richie!

Great wxperience! Loved learning about dog mushing!

We really had no idea what to expect. The experience was so awesome... not only was the "mushing" experience great, the education allotted was fantastic. The best part was being able to interact with the dogs. So much fun!!

This was my favorite thing on my trip to Alaska! Emily and Richie were super cool, the dogs were amazing, and the ATV ride was really fun. We got to hang out with the dogs afterwards and learn about the sport of dog mushing. The tour was private and felt like our own VIP experience. And the location was easy to get to. I would highly recommend Wildthingz for anyone in the Denali area who wants a unique and personal experience with sled dogs!

wish to see a change in attitude of these folks who seem to be able to dish it out but cant take the heat when gatekeeping and talkin' shit. hope to see a change to the level of smug from this otherwise fine establishment. love the dogs, didnt need the 'tude or the lecture. please consider that your content is not all family friendly, and should be marked as such or removed.

Amazing experience. They shared a wealth of knowledge about dog sledding. All of the pups were so sweet. Highly recommend! The ride was a blast! Thanks to Richie and his lovely partner/wife

My husband and I along with our 7&9 year old kids booked the 9:30 tour so we could stop on our return from Denali to Anchorage. Perfect timing to leave Denali in the morning and brwaknup the drive back to Anchorage. We had a great time at this authentic dog mushing experience. The hosts were great with the kids and all of their questions. We took a ride with the dogs through beautiful countryside and along a river. After the tour we went into a tent and leaned more about the dogs, races and preparation to race. I highly recommend the tour for families!

Wow! Just wow! Richie and Emily are my new best friends. They were just that friendly. Obviously they love what they do, love their dogs and love sharing their experiences with us. The ride was way more than I expected and I cant wait to do it again. Beautiful! Thx from Ohio!

This was so much fun and Emily and Rich were the most gracious hosts and tour guides! We went for a run with the dogs pulling the ATV (because it was summer and there is no snow), learned a ton about dog sledding and the Alaska races and most importantly got to pet all of the dogs! I'll admit I was was a bit worried about some things I had heard about the Iditarod and animal neglect/abuse, but these are true dog people that love their dogs. The dogs are very happy and well-cared for. My kids loved this! Highly recommend!

Once in a life experience, a must try when you are in Denali!! Emily and Richie are such kind people giving us the most amazing tour of the outbacks of Denali with the dogs in the lead. My two little kids enjoyed the ride so much my daughter is already asking to come back next year to see Wookie. The tour is so private that we were able to have plenty of time after the dog sled ride to as interact with the dogs. We learned about Iditorod from Emily and Richie, experience racers themselves. They gave us a peek into the intriguing the world of dog mushing that we will never forget. Highly recommend.

We took the tour yesterday morning and had a great time. The owner, Richie, gave us the tour which made it much more authentic and informative. We took a ride with the dogs and got to see them in action. We also learned all about raising and training the dogs, what it's like to actually be in a sled race, and the equipment they use. And of course we got to see puppies!!
