History: Emma was born to a husky breeder in Juneau. As a pup, she was supposed to follow in her mother's pawprints as a profesional mother, but she was never happy with that expectation. When he brother's were taken outside for sled dog training, Emma managed to sneak in with them. The trainer noticed the willingness in Emma, and agreed with the breeder to train her along with her brothers.

When she was older, a young musher names Josh came to the breeding facility looking to add dogs to his team. She was picked by him to be on his team along with another female names Mia. The two were instant best friends, but were a little more cautious around Dingo, the led dog on their new team.

Emma's team traveled around Alaska, picking up other dogs from breeder's until they came back to Nome with a full team. The took a break there, awaiting a race that was coming up in Nome. During that time, Emma spent more and more time with Dingo.

Other teams filtered into Nome, and Emma's team had to prepare for the big race. It was unsure whether the race woud continue as planned since a blizzard was heading Nome's way. That didn't stop one of the teams from traveling the course again the night before. Mia woke Emma, worrying about her brother, Max, who was a wheel dog on the team that had gone out and never came back because of the blizzard finally crashing down on Nome. Emma hurriedly woke Dingo, but he just shrugged it off saying that the team probably set up camp and would return in the morning. Emma told Dingo that Max's team had never been to Nome before and they knew no other path but the racing course. They would never be able to find a short cut back to Nome. They'd be lost even if they made through by camping. Dingo ignored the pleas and sent them back to bed. 

Emma was frustrated that Dingo wouldn't help, and gathered up the team anyways. They traveled out that night with plenty of first aids. It didn't take long for them to stumble upon the crashed sled team. They helped the dogs into a nearby cave and started to nurse the worse injuries. They stayed there all night waiting out the storm.

In the morning, it was obvious that there would be no way to carry all the injured dogs back to Nome on one sled. Emma went out, going back to Nome for help. But just a mile or two away was the mail team!

Emma led Dingo, Kodi, and the rest of the team to the cave, and they were able to get all the hurt dogs into Nome for some proper care.

Dingo swallowed his pride while waiting in the vet's office, and apologized to Emma for not helping her. She instantly forgave him because that is just her personality.

For years afterward, the couple headed the team to many victories, and had a litter of pups when they retired early for the sole purpose of being parents. 

Personality: Emma is completely kind and forgiving. She had a determined and fierce personality when she needs to, but mostly she is just sweet and fun loving.
