Land Rover versus Dog Sled Team - Vesileppis Ski Tunnel, Finland 
Land Rover Challenges Dog Sled Team
Land Rover transported a team of sled dogs to an underground snow tunnel in Finland for a unique challenge.
This year’s warm summer has left much of Northern Europe without snow. So the team of husky dogs was in need of training ahead of winter championships to the Vesileppis Ski Tunnel in Finland.
The automaker created a video just over two minutes in length to document and promote the unique race.
With an estimated 50% of Land Rover customers globally owning or regularly traveling with a dog, the automaker said it made sense to put its canine capability to the test. The automaker offered up a Discovery Sport SUV which took on Laura Kääriäinen and her team of six sled dogs.
