Darn, Richie dropped another dog.
Purely my opinion:
The Iditarod official decision to cower and bow to PETA fks, by lowering team size to 14 animals is a terrible decision.
It's actually tougher on the dogs as its harder on a smaller team later in the race. It hasnt reduced the percentage of dropped dogs.
New Iditarod CEO actually went to PETA headquarters, thinking he'd find common ground with extremists who hate our culture and use clandestine tactics to snuff out sponsors?
14 is too small, but I suspect number crunching on Rob's part made him believe it would save money, too.
