The ice could cut the dogs' feet. To keep that from   10   , Julie had put special boots on their feet.

At first, the dogs seemed to   11    the sled very slowly. They were   12    getting used to the race. But on the third day out, they began to run more     13    . They worked    14    a team and passed many of the other racers. Once, one of the sled's runners fell into a hole and   15   .Julie could have given up then, but she didn't. She fixed it and they kept going.

When they finally reached the finish line, they found that they had come in the first place! It was a great day for Julie and her dogs.
