Sled dog letter-METRO Published in today's METRO,
letters to the editor 2/2: Yonkers: There is nothing 'prestigious' about the Alaskan sled dog race the
Idiotrod satirizes (Metro, 1/28). For the Iditarod, dogs are
over bred, with those not making the cut usually shot in the head; some dogs
suffer heart attacks during the grueling and exhausting race; between races,
dogs live in inhumane conditions - and guess what happens to them when their
racing days are over? When profit is involved, the animals always lose - always. For further
