The Iditarod issued a statement Sunday afternoon informing of a dog death in this year's race. Bog, a two-year old male out of Dallas Seavey's kennel running in Isaac Teaford's team, collapsed coming into the checkpoint of Nulato. Iditarod vets sprang into action, performing life saving measures on the dog for twenty minutes but were unable to revive the dog.
The cause of death is unknown. The body will be transported to Anchorage for a necropsy to determine cause of death.
