Jennifer is a dog musher, mom of six and works full time.  She and her husband, Carl Erhart, who she met in the dog yard, manage a kennel of 40 dogs.  Jennifer first started running dogs at age 2 because her parents were in the sport.  After a long stint without sled dogs, she returned to the sport to engage her own children. She adopted a dog from the shelter for her kids to start with.  Being a fan of fast cars and a warm bed, she found herself fitting well in the limited class sprint realm of dog mushing.  She’s been racing in the Alaska race circuit for almost 20 years now and has traveled as far as Daaquam Quebec Canada to race.  She’s competed in the IFSS World Championships in 2009 and 2013. Her 6 dog team has held track records at both Tok (recently broken) and Tanacross (still standing). She enjoys spending time with her dogs and watching her kids learn and develop life skills while dog mushing.
