Mrytle lived a good life…
Mrytle was one of Polly’s dogs and named after her great aunt Olga Mrytle from New Brunswick who lived to 102 years old.
Mrytle was one of Polly’s dogs and named after her great aunt Olga Mrytle from New Brunswick who lived to 102 years old.
Mrytle was one of 6 puppies in a litter born in the spring of 2010 at Mahoosuc Guide Service’s farm in Newry.
Mrytle was a big girl weighing in at 95 pounds. She was a gentle giant who didn’t have an aggressive bone in her. She loved people and children and was a very steady personality. She was one of the only dogs Polly could take to the Common Ground Fair for days in a row and was never bothered by all the people and noise.
Mrytle did not have a strong work ethic and was not keen to pull a dog sled so in the latter part of her life she became a loving pet to a couple in down east Maine who took great care of her until she passed. She was joined by another Mahoosuc sled dog, Bradey, and they were great companions.
We feel so fortunate to have known Mrytle and miss her. She has two brothers here at Mahoosuc, Teslin and Travis, who have recently retired.
Thank you Valerie and Michael for taking such good care of her.
Rest well sweet Mrytle… Love, Polly & Kevin

Thank you, Polly and Kevin, for sharing the magic of your world with us! Two extraordinary days of mushing through serene winterscapes, snowshoeing to frozen waterfalls, and befriending your happy Yukon Huskies all gave us memories for a lifetime. We also appreciated your flexibility to provide an alternate (but equally exciting) itinerary when weather prevented the original plan. We cannot wait to return!
