Panda, a black poodle-mix breed, won the "princess in pink" award for her bright outfit and the prize of "green with envy" went to Ela, an American Eskimo dog, for her floral dress.

Taking part are Siberian huskies, Alaskan malamutes, Samoyeds, Greenland dogs and Canadian Eskimo dogs.

In such work animals are quite useless, for the Eskimo dog pulls hard and steady only under conditions where the sledge moves constantly forward.

Eskimo dog, a half-tamed variety, widely distributed in the Arctic regions, and indispensable for drawing the sledges.

The unhappy condition of the Eskimo dogs under native treatment is pathetically referred to in "Cassell's Natural History," edited by Professor Duncan.
