\n
Team Birgitte N\u00e6ss consists of Birgitte N\u00e6ss and her partner, Kristoffer Halvorsen. At their home in S\u00f8rskogbyda, outside Elverum, they share their lives with 35 huskies, two Galgo Espa\u00f1ol dogs and the cats Skorpa Pus and Knerten Pus. Together, they pursue their passion for dog sledding, the outdoors and life with their four-legged pack.<\/strong><\/strong><\/h5><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Kristoffer was previously a handler for Robert S\u00f8rlie. Birgitte began her mushing career on skis and dog, later moving on to sled sprint, middle-distance and now long-distance mushing. She is the only musher to have won a national championship title in all winter disciplines within mushing. She also has several international titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Birgitte and Kristoffer are goal-oriented and dedicated dog sled drivers who are now focusing on the Finnmarksl\u00f8pet 1200 km and the Femundl\u00f8pet 650 km \u2013 races in which they have both achieved several top results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u00abA proper feeding plan is a prerequisite for the dogs to be able to perform throughout a long, build-up training season and racing season. A raw food diet with the right balance of nutrients is absolutely crucial for success. We feed all our dogs \u2013 from puppy to adult \u2013 with VOM every day, all year round, for optimal health and performance."\u00bb
