Saturday, 1 November, 2025
In this episode of Mushing, host Robert Forto sits down with Fernando and Dana, the husband-and-wife team behind Rancho Luna Lobos in Park City, Utah. From running a rescue kennel and family-run sled dog tour business to shaping the next generation of mushers, they share how faith, community, and love for dogs power everything they do.We explore their Peace Garden, where dogs heal from past trauma, how they blend mushing and ministry, and what the future of the sport looks like, from sprint racing to the rise of dryland mushing and monodog sports.Fernando also shares his most humbling moment on the trail (spoiler: it involves a wrong turn and icy trail!), and Dana reflects on legacy, leadership, and Leonard Seppala’s enduring influence.Listen for:Why humility and faith matter in modern mushingHow Rancho Luna Lobos blends rescue, sport, and storytellingThe future of sled dog racing and outdoor adventure in UtahThe Mushing podcast is made possible by Mushing+ subscribers.
