What some of our customers are saying:
Thanks. The sled is beautiful!
S.P-P, Colorado
Re the "Can-Am": Woo hoo! All I can say is Thank you!!! I love the new sled :) It rides like a dream :) We got 7" of new snow overnight so it was perfect. It did take a little getting used to as far as the flexiblity in the beginning...but once I got the feel of it... it rides so much smoother than the______ I usually use. I told Ray today I felt like I was driving a Cadillac! I'll highly recommend the sled to anyone I know... T.L, Maine
Sled arrived today!!!!! Looks great, went together with-out problems, can't wait to try it out! Bag is amazing, great work
Thanks again K.T., Utah
Re the "Double Driver":
Just wanted to write you folks and tell you how much the girls like their sled. They have been bragging about it to everyone and taking people rides. Today Jan.1, Becky, Rachael and I hooked up 12 dogs and went to Sherman and back which is 14 miles. I couldn't believe the way the sled handled. You sold us on your sleds. The next time the girls hook up a big team I will send you a picture. S.N., Maine (see picture in PhotoGallery)
Took out a 4-dog team this morning. The trails were lousy but a good time was has by all. On a fun factor scale of 1-10, the DD rates a BA- ZILLION!!! S.H., Connecticutt
Finally, finally, we have enough snow to take our new sled out. We went for a run yesterday afternoon and it was magnificent! The sled handles beautifully, and it was a hoot to be able to travel together. We will have a wonderful winter taking trips together with all of our dogs. Thank you very much for building it for us. Larkin says to tell you that we named the sled "Lucille".

The sled finally arrived! It's beautiful. It feels good. Can't wait for tomorrow morning to hitch a team to it. Many thanks for your beautiful work, G.M., Canada

P.C, NH
ITS FANTASTIC!!!! better than we could imagine, it fits the sled absolutely perfectly, so glad we double checked the measurements. the terriers have already sat in the bag to test it out and the dogs looked as excited as we were; mr wolfe kept sniffing it over and over and he approves! really pleased with the colours and love the little logo you sewed on it too, be pleased to give you some good advertising to anyone interested in buying a bag over here!!! make sure everyone we race with knows how good it looks!

Re Rangeley Junior:
God bless you and your husband! I cannot believe how magnificent Hannahs sled is! I will send photos as soon as I get them.

Just a quick note to let you know I received our new Sled Bag and drag Pad. I have to tell you the Sled Bag colors were perfect, the workmanship second to none and the enjoyment of dealing with two honest people has more than earned my repeat business. We have 1 season behind us on our “Allagash” and its performance was flawless. Hect, it even pulled great on its side. (Long Story). We will be ordering the C48 shortly. Again, Thank You!

It has arrived and it is beautiful!!!!!!! Thank you so much. I am so excited. I can't wait for some snow so that I can use it. If you would like I can send you a picture of it in use when the time comes for using it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You have made my day. :-)) H.W. Ontario, Canada
I meant to tell you and Alex: last season was our best race season ever: third at Stratford 30, fourth at Can-Am 30 and first at the Bartlett Fun Run. It could have been the soft snow conditions that favor my big strong dogs…or it could have been my C-41!
C.B-S, Maine
Even though I just have one strip of slushy snow left in our front field big enough for a run, I could tell that the sled flies a lot quicker than our other one, and I can maneuver it more easily. It'll clearly give me an advantage when I only run one dog. It's great. I'm hoping that section of snow will last the afternoon and harden up overnight, so I can try it on a firmer pack in the morning. One more time: many thanks for your help figuring out the shipping and everything.

"Just a quick report to let you know we had great success at the sled dog sprint festival in Wanaka New Zealand. Won our class and now feel quite comfortable behind the sled. Your braking system { flip-up drag pad/brake combo] has made a real difference and I was thrilled with it. Am now comfortable taking corners at speed knowing that control is only a foot tap away if something goes wrong. Strongly recommended your brakes to others who would listen so hope you get some new business from down under. Regards, R.S..

"The sled arrived yesterday at 10:30 am at my office. I took it out of the crate last night like a kid unwrapping a present at Christmas. It looks great and the craftsmanship and quality has exceeded my expectation. I can't wait to use it this year .-------------- D.I., Pennsylvania
"Thank you so much for building us such a beautiful sled {C-41, disassembled}.
we received it Wed 15th, and I put it together that night. This sled is very well put together. Alex you are a true Craftsman. Thank you both for your efforts.--R.W.

"Hi there! Just a note to let you know we got the sled bag today, just in time for Ken's birthday. It's great!! I wouldn't fit in there, but his boys probably will. ;o) Thanks for your quick service." -- T. D., Maine
"Hi Lucille,
Thanks for the info & THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE SLED! It's even nicer than I expected. I can't wait to get it in the snow. It's getting unseasonably cool here so I'm hoping for an early & snowy winter! If you ever need to use someone as a reference for your sleds - I'll happily tell everyone about the craftsmanship I see in mine! One thing I didn't mention, I love the brake design. We've tried a couple of different styles & this one looks like a winner." -- K. A., Michigan
"Dear Lucille, our sled bag came in the mail today and to put it mildly my wife and I are very impressed!!! The quality and workmanship are absolutely impeccable!! The bag's arrival could not have come at a better time. Last nite we recieved 10 inches of the white fluffy stuff perfect for showing off our new sled and bag. The two of them together are a perfect match. I'll try to send you some pics if i can just figure out how to send jpegs. Once again thank you for every thing! You and your husband, and the lady who sewed the beautiful bag helped us enjoy a most memorable christmas! And not to mention how much fun it is to see our dogs pull their new sled. They simply love it!!!! Have a happy new year and god bless you!!" -- S. K., Washington
"Hi Lucille! We
received our bag, It is Awesome! It is everything that we had hoped it
would be and fits beautifully to our sled! Thanks so much! I didn't check
my email til Sat morning, so I mailed your check right away. You should
be receiving it by Tues(?). You really did a fantastic job and we can't
wait to try it out on the trail!" -- L. M., Massachusetts "... As for the
sled - IT IS GREAT. It has held up very well in a couple of mishaps with
trees and came out without a scratch. The plastic brush guard is a great
idea for this sled! One of my friends will be buying one next year and
I'm sure he will be coming to you. I will keep on him. ... Thank you again
for all of your help. I do believe that you will see more of us and I
will make sure that I recommend your sleds to everyone I talk to."
-- N. R., Brunswick, Maine "Lucille, "I received the
sled bag on Friday afternoon and put it on the sled immediately! It fits
fine and am planning on using it all next week. Thank you for such a quality
product and the personal touch that is missing in a lot of other merchandise."
-- K. P., New Hampshire "Of course you
already know this but the sled bag is absolutely beautiful! It looks like
it will be extremely durable and I'm sure it will las as long as my sled.
I tied it on my sled and it fits like you actually made it for MY sled.
Hmmm, how did that happen? It is obvious that you have that tape measure
to sewing needle conversion all figured out. The blue and green look great
together (you have good taste) Also the design is excellent. It's easy
to see you have made enough of these to get all the bugs worked out and
have all the pockets, bags, vents and straps placed in the most convenient
and user friendly spots. I will get a photo of the sled and bag combination
out to you soon. ... MaineMade Dogsleds
I got the bags on Sat. I can't tell you how happy I
am with my sled bad for my toboggan sled. I ran with it for 20 miles yesterday
and it is really perfect. You spent a lot of time with me getting it right
and I appreciate it. I will recommend your company to all that ask. I
will be sending you the money shortly. Thanks again." -- B. L., Vermont
I never explained why I chose you for my sled bag, so I will do so now.
I am not an impulse buyer. Whenever I am in the market to buy something
I look at every available option, then try to get the best product for
the money. I really love the internet, because now instead of looking
at a few local stores, I can search all over the world. When I was planning
on building a dog sled last fall, I looked at every dog sled makers web
site I could find, to see what was available, and get ideas on how to
make a sled. While looking at those sites, I knew that I would be needing
a sled bag, and I couldn't make that myself. I made a note of all the
sled makers that also offered sled bags. I weeded them out, down to 3.
**** Montana, **** Wisconsin, and this neat husband and wife team in Maine
called Maine Made Dog Sleds. I liked the looks of the bags from each of
these companys, and they all sounded like good quality. Then I sent an
e-mail to each one, inquiring about a CUSTOM made to fit my sled bag.
This is where you really won. You responded within hours. The others were
days. They both told me they had standard bags that would fit my sled.
They were both more expensive than you for a "standard" bag..
They had very vague info on their web site. You didn't have to explain
much in your first e-mail to me, as your web site pretty much gives all
the info I needed. You did however ask for measurements, and gave me some
options to consider, so I knew that you made truly custom bags.
Also, writing back and forth with you seemed like talking to an old friend,
not just someone who wanted me to buy something from them. I now know
that I made the right choice. I could have paid more for a bag from someone
else, but I am certain that I could not get a better quality bag no matter
what the cost. That is the kind of people I want to do business with.
When someone buys one of Alex's sleds, I am willing to bet they get the
same results." -- Husky Hauler, Minnesota
We received our sled about a week ago. We were really
impressed by the fine craftsmanship on the Bridgton sled. We and our german
shorthairs are new to all of this sledding sport but we got our dogs
up and running with in a day or two (they love to run) . The sled is so
easy to handle. Look forward to the sled bag I ordered from you. Wish we
could learn more about the sport so we don't make to many bad mistakes that
are hard to correct. I enclosed a picture of the dogs pulling my wife Katie
on the Bridgton sled. I need to get a better picture.
Thanks again,
