Rami's Huskies is a genuinely local family business, whose story began back in 1996 when Rami acquired his first sled dogs. For the first few years, he ran with his dogs as a freelancer until his own company was founded in 2001. Rami has lived his entire life in the village of Kallo, about 25 km from Ylläsjärvi, 40 km from Äkäslompolo, and 60 km from Levi. In 2021, Rami's Huskies was recognised as the Business of the Year and Entrepreneur of the Year out of over 800 businesses in Kittilä.
New location
Previously, the company's husky services were located elsewhere, but now the operation is built for the first time at our own location – a place where dogs live and everyday life unfolds. Our address is Ruonanmaantie 25, 99120 Kallo. This new environment offers a peaceful and authentic starting point for husky safaris, and the grounds and kennel have been holistically developed to meet the expectations of modern customers.
Our renewed kennel – responsibly built for sled dogs
Our renewed kennel has been built with respect for durability, safety and the environment. Most of the building materials come from the old kennel; its usable structures have been carefully refurbished and put back into use. This way, old materials have been given a new life as a high-quality and functional whole.
During construction, all usable materials were utilised as efficiently as possible. This reduces construction waste, saves natural resources and supports sustainable building. The use of recycled materials did not mean compromising on quality – the kennel has been designed and built to be safe, sturdy and long-lasting, so that it provides sled dogs with a functional environment for years to come.
The wooden posts of the kennel come from our own grounds, where trees were thinned as part of forest management and the surroundings of the running enclosure were cleared. The new building materials needed were purchased from local brick-and-mortar shops, which also supported local entrepreneurs and the vitality of the nearby area.
For us, responsibility means practical actions. We want to show that high-quality construction, the wellbeing of the dogs and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand. Every reused material is a step towards a more sustainable future – without compromising on safety, functionality or quality.
A new life for old materials – a safe, durable and pleasant home for sled dogs.
Private safaris
Arctic sled dogs – perfectly suited to Lappish conditions
It is important to us to use Arctic sled dogs, which are excellently suited for the demanding winter conditions of Finnish Lapland. Thick undercoat and strong working motivation make them reliable partners for dog sledding trips.
Dogs are friendly and affectionate towards people, and customers can get acquainted with them after the safari – for many, this is the highlight of the trip.
New concept: calmer and more private husky safaris
The break from operations brought much good. We had time to pause, clear our thoughts, and make space for new ideas. Now we are returning to safari operations in winter 2026–2027 with a renewed, but back-to-basics concept – with the idea of "small is beautiful". The renewed concept emphasises:
- ●small groups and privacy
- ●to offer a memorable experience in the Lapland nature
- ●a close encounter with dogs and a guide
Group sizes are limited to 4-6 people to ensure each customer receives a peaceful and personal experience. Safaris for 4-6 people are always private programmes and do not include other participants.
- ●Groups of 5–6 people — please email to confirm availability.
- ●A group of 1-3 people can book a private safari by paying the price for 4 people. Otherwise, other people can also join the safari.
