Skijor (ski-jur) is a Norwegian word that means "ski-driving" - that is, a cross-country skier utilizing a dog, or dogs as draft animals.

Pulk (p-ulk) is a small sled pulled by a dog or dogs loaded with gear. In races,  the pulk carries weight to handicap exceptionally fast dogs, or light, strong skiers. The skier is tethered to the pulk and follows it.
