Meet Christina Gibson

Christina Gibson is a professional dog trainer, photographer, and competitive musher with a decade of experience training, racing, and raising sled dogs.

Her journey began at age four, when she watched Balto and declared she would run the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. At twelve, she ran her first dog and never looked back. Since then, Christina has competed in numerous races across the U.S. and Canada, including mid-distance and stage events where her teams consistently place at the top of the field.

Christina’s drive to compete with the best canine athletes in the world has only grown, and her kennel now features a selective breeding program focused on temperament, drive, health, and versatility.

In addition to competitive racing, Christina has spent the last four years working professionally as a dog trainer. Her approach focuses on relationship-building to create thoughtful, lasting results.

Christina also offers professional canine photography, capturing the spirit and individuality of dogs both at work and play.

About Team Whiteout

Whiteout Racing strives to stand for honest, high-quality dog care, breeding, and racing.

At Whiteout Working Dogs, everything we do is centered around what’s best for the dogs. We take immense pride in our athletes and the care they receive.

Our system is built to create an environment where dogs can truly thrive—from how they’re trained, to how the kennel is set up, to how we feed and interact with them each day. When they’re not on the trail, our dogs spend much of their time in pens together, loose in the house yard, or inside with us. We believe this kennel set up allows them to build strong bonds with one another, and with us. It also aids recovery and helps them stay physically limber between training runs and races. We believe in providing a full life, not just a working one. Our dogs spend meaningful time in the home, and we’re committed to giving them the best life from start to finish. When they retire, they often join families as active companions and hiking buddies. While we miss them dearly, we love seeing them enjoy their (very active) golden years as the center of attention they so rightly deserve.

Our breeding program focuses on temperament, work ethic, and structure. Dogs selected for the program are proven athletes, health-tested, and chosen with long-term success in mind. We keep things small and intentional, breeding only when we have the right dogs to move the next generation forward. If you’re interested in learning more, we welcome you to reach out through our contact form.

As a racing kennel, we’re committed to growth. We constantly refine our training and kennel practices to meet each dog’s individual needs. Our focus is on building an environment that supports the physical and mental development of our team—now and into the future.

“Dogs first. Always.”
