After trying to get rid of the Husky twice, the young dog escapes by crashing through a window pane and again returns to find the other dogs training. He constantly escapes when left in the kennel, and seeks out Seppala's dog team, causing great disruption to Seppala's training routine. The young dog turns out to be close to unmanageable, and refuses to stay at home when the other dogs are working. While Seppala insists on immediately retiring him due to his small and weak state, Constance is strongly supportive of the puppy. In 1913, Seppala and his wife Constance welcome a newborn Siberian Husky puppy to their sledding dog pack in Nome, Alaska.
