A true white husky and an excellent lead or wheel dog, Layâk is a tireless worker who always gives his best in harness. From a line bred mainly for mid-distance, he combines endurance, focus and experience.

A former skijoring champion, Buck has won many competitions and remains an iconic figure of the Loups du Val de They.
Balto du Menez des Glaziks
Balto du Menez des Glaziks was born on 29 September 2024 to Sherpa Samcanka and Octavia to Riders of Free Spirit.
With the looks and build of a cartoon character, Balto never goes unnoticed. But behind that irresistible look is a willing, hardy dog who is always ready to go to work.
Tireless and motivated, he has everything it takes to become an excellent racing dog.
Daemon
Daemon, nicknamed “Junior”, was born on 17 May 2021. This Greyster, a cross between German Shorthaired Pointer, Pointer and Alaskan Husky, was bred for top-level sled dog sports.
Although he now runs in team with our huskies, Daemon particularly excels in single-dog events. In 2026, he won the Lekkarod Trophy in skijoring with Raïssa.
Powerful, tireless and always willing, he is a real machine over mid-distance, yet remains a cheerful dog who is very close to people.
À jamais dans nos cœurs… 🐾
Certains de nos compagnons nous ont quittés bien trop tôt, laissant derrière eux un immense vide, mais aussi des souvenirs inoubliables.
Bien plus que des chiens de traîneau, ils étaient nos partenaires, nos complices, nos amis et des membres à part entière de notre famille.
Chacun a écrit une page de notre histoire et laissé son empreinte dans celle d’Alpes’Huskies.
Ils ont quitté notre attelage, mais jamais nos cœurs. ❤️
Onyx du Menez des Glaziks
Onyx du Menez des Glaziks, 2018-20.10.2026
Ma belle Onyx…
Une fois de plus, tu m’as suivie et tu m’as fait confiance. Mais cette fois, c’était un jeu de dupes… Nous savions toutes les deux que ce serait la dernière.
Depuis trois jours déjà, tu montrais des signes d’une profonde apathie. Ce n’était tellement pas toi, ça ! Toi qui avais toujours ton mot à dire, qui régentais le chenil et faisais la loi au milieu de tes six « bébés », tous devenus plus costauds les uns que les autres…
Hier soir déjà, tu m’as suivie à la maison pour y passer une dernière nuit. Au fond, nous savions que l’issue ne serait pas heureuse.
Roberto, notre super vétérinaire, est rentré spécialement du Tessin dès que je l’ai appelé. La jaunisse avait gagné tes yeux, ta peau, l’intérieur de ta bouche… Ton organisme était gravement atteint par un cancer du pancréas. Il n’y avait malheureusement plus rien à faire.
Alors ce soir, tu t’es endormie paisiblement, confiante, entre nos bras. Comme toujours, tu nous as fait confiance jusqu’au bout.
Tu étais sans doute la plus bizarre de toutes mes chiennes ! Avec tes yeux vairons et ton regard parfois glacial, tu pouvais paraître si distante… Et pourtant, tu étais tellement attachante, à ta manière.
Depuis ton arrivée dans notre vie en 2018, cadeau de mon papa, tu as presque tout partagé avec moi. Nos premières participations à la Grande Odyssée, nos premiers clients à Zermatt, tant d’aventures, de kilomètres et de souvenirs…
Tu étais aussi la chouchou de Laurent, sa fidèle chienne de tête lors de ses premières compétitions. Vous en avez parcouru, du chemin, tous les deux !
Et puis, tu nous laisses tes six magnifiques bébés, un peu de toi qui continuera à courir dans nos attelages et à faire vivre ton caractère bien trempé au sein de notre meute.
Ce soir, le chenil a perdu l’une de ses grandes personnalités. Et nous, une compagne de route irremplaçable.
Veille sur nous, ma belle Onyx. Tu as été une sacrée louloute, une maman formidable et une fidèle partenaire de tant d’aventures.
Merci pour ces huit années à nos côtés. Bon voyage, ma belle.
Balto du Menez des Glaziks
Quirok des Loups du Val de They, 2023-26.02.2025
Juste envie de hurler tellement c’est injuste et cruel ! Toi le chien tellement doux, gentil, espiègle, avec cette envie permanente de bien faire, tu t’en es allé cette nuit
Toi l’ouvreur de mousquetons, toujours créatif en matière de conneries, qu’est ce que tu nous as fait rire durant ta trop courte vie.
En Suède, les vétos t’ont examiné longtemps, tu n’étais pas dans ton assiette, mais tu n’avais rien de concret.
Le 1er jour de course, tu étais tellement heureux au départ, puis tu t’es beaucoup arrêté, tu partais en tête, j’ai mis ça sur le compte de ton inexpérience…
Le samedi tu étais au top et le dimanche juste incroyable, au point d’arriver sur la 1e marche du podium avec une facilité déconcertante. Qu’est ce que tu étais fier à la remise des prix!
Pourtant, tu avais déjà un problème cérébral et hier tu as multiplié les crises suite à un probable AVC. Chez ton vétérinaire, nous avons dû accepter de te laisser partir. Il n’y avait rien à faire.
Et dire que la première phrase qu’on m’a dite sur l’aire d’arrivée c’était que ma concurrente devait avoir un problème avec son chien, vu les minutes d’avance qu’on avait… non, le problème c’est toi qui l’avait le vendredi déjà et il ne t’a pas laissé la moindre chance.
Tu étais un vrai champion, tu avais tout, le mental, la force et une vitesse hors norme. Veille sur nous mon Quirok, tu as été un super chien!
Une retraite bien méritée… 🐾
Parfois, certaines rencontres changent le cours d'une vie, et quelques-uns de nos chiens quittent la meute pour rejoindre une famille qui leur ouvre son cœur et sa maison.
Après de belles années de compétition, de travail et de complicité à mes côtés, je considère qu'ils ont le droit de profiter d'une retraite paisible, bien au chaud dans un foyer, loin de la vie en meute et en extérieur.
Comme nous, en vieillissant, ils aspirent à davantage de calme, de confort et d'attentions individuelles.
Les aimer, c'est aussi savoir les laisser partir. Leur offrir cette nouvelle vie est, à mes yeux, bien plus qu'un choix : c'est un devoir et une dernière façon de les remercier pour tout ce qu'ils m'ont donné. ❤️
