Testimonials

  • Great experience with a strong focus on safety for both riders and dogs. Brad was a great guide and helpful in every way. It’s a workout both mentally and physically, but totally worth it. It’s been a dream for my oldest daughter for over 14 years, and they did not disappoint. We will be back 100%.

  • This activity is awesome and fun for the whole family. Leah and Brad went above and beyond in customer care, making the experience worry-free and enjoyable for everyone. The dog sledding itself is the experience of a lifetime—by far the best Canadian experience I've had in 12 years.

    Jason Cooke - Feb 2024

  • What an amazing time. Best adventure I have done in years. Super fun. The trails were gorgeous, the dogs were enthusiastic and our guide, Brad, is one of the nicest people I have met in a long time. He absolutely loves his dogs (81 of them) and they love him. You can drive or be a passenger when you go. Or do both like we did.

    Rick Wallace - Feb 2024

  • Such a fun activity for the day! I’ve never tried anything like it before, it was really neat. The dogs are very well taken care of and are all incredibly sweet/friendly. The forest was lovely as well, and it was great to hear Brad’s stories! He definitely knows everything there is to know about dog sledding, I felt like we were in very good hands. Wonderful!

    Emma Kilgannon - March 2024

  • What an adventure! Leah and Brad couldn't have been more welcoming, they made the trip there so worth it. They clearly really care about their guests, they made sure to prepare the right dogs for us and gave us very clear instructions to make sure we knew what we were doing before going out. Incredibly beautiful trails is an understatement, as well as super lovely dogs that are clearly well loved and looked after.

    Emma Rees - Feb 2024

  • We’ve had a great experience! With Brad’s instructions we felt confident enough to do the tour with our family. When we started, I was a bit anxious if everything would go well. But Brad kept checking us along the way and kept giving tips and tricks, which I really appreciated. The trail was beautiful 🤩 and the dogs are adorable.

    Marjolein van Seeters - March 2024

  • Definitely the best experience ever! We've been traveling to Canada many years, summer and winter, and we're so happy we finally did the dog sledding this time at North Ridge Ranch.

    Waniwaniohuro - Mar. 2023

  • We went on our first dog sled run today and it was an out of this world experience! Not only were we greeted by Brad and his super friendly wife Leah, we were greeted by many many happy/well behaved dogs! Such a beautiful property and so many well cared for dogs! Definitely recommend, we will be going again!

  • Dog sled tour in Canada - that was such a massive adventure! My daughter Isabela (15) and I, Klaus, went on a dog sled tour with you on March 21, 2023. The weather was great and we had so much fun. A childhood dream came true for both Isabela and me – to ride a dog sled through a snow-covered winter forest. The dogs were just great!

    Klaus Dieter - March 2023

  • It was beautiful sledge ride through woods. Instructor had given clear instructions and he was checking all the time during ride if whole group is on track. Dogs are adorable and very friendly. Driver on the sledge has complete control throughout ride, do consider this before booking and enjoy this winter activity. Recommend completely.

    Pallavi Prabhu - April 2023

  • Our family of five booked a one hour tour and as many before me have stated, my only regret was not booking the longer option. My three kids ages 7, 5 & 3 did just fine and would have enjoyed more time. Brad and Leah are exceptional hosts. Patient and genuine.

    Kate A - March 2023

  • What an absolutely amazing experience we had at North Ridge Ranch! Going through the trails was like being in a truly magical winter wonderland, and the dogs on our team were the most friendly and well behaved boys and girls we could ask for. Not to mention, it is super fun interacting with them and learning all about their personalities!

    Rachel Cheng - 2022

  • Do it! Sign up to go dog sledding! You will not regret it! Hands down this was one of the most incredible experiences I've had. I almost don't know how to describe it adequately.

    Felicity C - March 2023

  • This was the best 60th birthday present. I have always wanted to dogsled & this experience was amazing. From start to finish, Brad prepared us so well for being a driver and passenger; was attentive and made sure we were ok the whole way; he shared info and passion about the dogs, sleds, & his acreage; the hour long trip was fantastic and it does leave you wanting more. Be sure to take turns being the driver - you can do it!

    Sarah P - March 2023

  • What a wildly fun way to enjoy Canada’s back country! Just beautiful trail, and the dogs are so sweet. Brad is a great teacher for our first time ever sledding.

    Christine Testa - April 2023

  • A magical experience - simply once in a lifetime. Thank you so much to Brad, Leah and ofcourse the fluffy team! 🐕🐕Can't wait to get booked in again for future seasons - I can't recommend this enough!

    India Macfarlane - Feb 2023

  • A perfect way to spend a winter day! We did a one hour tour with adults and kids and it was perfect. The dogs were raring to go, Brad was a great instructor and guide, Leah was so accommodating even when we had one person drop out last minute. Smiles all around from this group!
