(Contributed)Looking for a new way to enjoy the winter outdoors with your four-legged companion? Skijoring might be just the adventure you’re looking for.Shawano Pathways is sponsoring an informational presentation on skijoring at 6 p.m. Dec. 1 at the Shawano Recreation Center, 220 E. Division St., Shawano.Skijoring is a winter sport that pairs a skier with an animal — most commonly a dog, horse or reindeer.In dog skijoring, one to three dogs are connected to the skier by a special harness and bungee line. Using cross-country skis and poles, the skier actively works alongside the dogs, who respond to voice commands to guide the team along the trail.The classroom-only presentation will be led by sisters Chris Clark and Cathy Carrier, both avid winter enthusiasts and dog owners. They will introduce participants to the basics of the sport, discuss necessary equipment and share information about modifications that can make skijoring more suitable for older dogs.If there is enough interest following the presentation, Shawano Pathways hopes to organize an outdoor demonstration at a later date, giving participants an opportunity to see skijoring in action.</div></body>
