Biography
“Harry” Harisberger, 24, was born and raised in Switzerland where he worked construction. After a few climbing and skiing trips to North America, he decided to stay longer in Alaska. Having no experience, he went to Martin Buser’s kennel to learn more about dogs. He’s been with Martin’s “lovely family” for about two years. He says he’s learned a lot about dogs and Alaska but most of all he has learned that “I can be successful in every business with hard work.” He says he looks forward to a great experience and adventure for his dogs and for him. “It is the nicest ending I can think of for my Alaskan adventure. I will leave the Buser family this spring with great thanks and love and follow my love.”
