ABOUT

Ilion Logo

The Ilion Sanctuary is the home of Team Ilion, a competitive sled dog team composed of different dog breeds from around the world! Sporting their signature red harnesses, our sled dogs compete in multiple races each season, and training takes place on our 70-acre property located on the edge of Diogenes, Alaska.
In addition to our kennel, we also provide multiple animal care facilities such as a veterinary clinic, doggy daycare, dog salon, and even a dog-friendly cafe! We are open to guests all year round, and invite you to come meet our team and learn about Ilion’s epic tale!

The Ilion Musher has made it their mission to give rescued dogs a place to call their own. Bringing together dogs from across the globe, the team began as a way to give these dogs a chance to find or continue their passion for pulling. Ilion isn't just a home to experienced sled dogs—many of our members have never had prior experience in racing, but sought out the sport, yearning for something new and to connect with their fellow teammates. Ilion’s dogs are always given a choice in whether they want to participate or not, as their well-being and comfort is top priority at the sanctuary.
As our team continues to grow, so does our popularity! Our sled dogs are adored by fans globally, and this has allowed Ilion to expand on its training itinerary and infrastructure. Even though Ilion’s goal is to reach the top of the mushing world someday, what our organization values the most will never change—and that is the love and care we have for our dogs!

The health and well-being of the Ilion team is critical and of the utmost importance for us. For dogs that participate in racing, check-ups and vaccines are given routinely. But it doesn't just stop at the basics—every dog is unique, and Ilion's vet staff always makes sure that each dog is cared for with their specific needs in mind. If a dog is not feeling well, they will not participate in training or races until they are in full health; there are no exceptions to this rule.
The sanctuary also houses dogs that are retired or currently under rehabilitation—unable to race either due to choice or circumstance—Rehabilitation programs are catered to each dog's needs, and put into place for dogs who seek to return to racing someday.
Our vet practice is staffed by passionate and dedicated veterinarians. Attentiveness to patients, quick response times, and providing nothing short of the most quality care for all animals is our primary concern. To read more about our staff and veterinary services, please check out our clinic page!

The Ilion Sanctuary has been a grassroots, non-profit organization since its founding. In the beginning of its development, our sanctuary was funded solely by Ilion's Musher—but thanks to our team gaining popularity worldwide, we have been able to raise awareness towards our sanctuary and operations. As a result, Ilion has received countless generous donations from our fans and local communities, and we have also secured many wonderful sponsors*. We’re grateful to say that with everyone’s loving support, our sanctuary's ever-expanding operations will continue to run smoothly!
You can learn more on how to support the sanctuary by visiting our support us pages.
*As a non-profit organization, all donations received will go towards the care of our dogs, our sanctuary, and expenses at our on-site veterinary clinic. Ilion only accepts support from reputable and trusted sponsors—listed to the left. If you represent an organization that is interested in officially sponsoring us, please contact us here.

MUSHER

NAME: Hector
Hometown: Kotzebue, Alaska
Occupation: Musher & Veterinarian
ARTIST: Roby

Born and raised in Kotzebue, Alaska, Hector hailed from a family of veterinarians. During the winter months, their parents would work as checkpoint veterinarians for various sled dog races. Hector would often be allowed to tag along, holding a deep interest and admiration for their parents’ hard work. Their own desire to help dogs influenced them to take on the same trade that was running in their family for generations.
After graduating from university, they sat on the idea of starting their very own practice, or continuing their family’s. They decided they wanted to open their own—choosing Diogenes, a small but welcoming town, as the location for their clinic. Operations were small in the beginning, and so Hector began volunteering at different sled dog competitions across Alaska in order to gain more experience with dogs.
While they enjoyed working at their practice and volunteering, their feelings on their career shifted one year when they volunteered at the Iditarod—the biggest sled dog competition in the world. There, they saw the drive and passion that each dog had for racing like never before. It ignited the flame of inspiration that made them want to become a musher.
After the race, Hector set out to start their own team–traveling all around Alaska and the world. But as time went on, their journey to start a team evolved into wanting to help and rescue sled dogs and to provide a new home for them. The Ilion clinic and kennel grew and became the sanctuary we know today for these dogs. Now, currently, the Ilion team is composed of some of the most unique sled dogs you’ll ever meet, and Hector wouldn’t have it any other way; treasuring each one with all their heart!

Hello! Long time no post. I just got back from Italy not too long ago. The weather was really nice, and I got to go to Pompeii again. I’d like to thank my friend Efisio for always being my guide when I visit Italy, because otherwise I would be lost! He’s a musher too, but he hardly participates in races unless he has to (I’m not really sure what that means). His team is back in Canada, so I couldn’t say hi to his dogs, but maybe next time I go to Vancouver I’ll get to see them. They’re a really strong team!

Group
Here are some photos I took during my trip. On the left is a photo of a local dog named Lava that lives in the ruins of Pompeii. I met her the last time I visited Italy. I was happy that she recognized me, but she's shy so she kept her distance. The last visit I mentioned I brought my dogs with me. Venus also joined us! If you're unfamiliar with Venus, she's a famous lead dog that belongs to the musher Anya, who happens to be a long-time family friend! Lava got along well with everyone, but she was particularly fond of Venus. Actually, now that I write this, I think Lava was looking for her when she saw me... I'm sorry, Lava! Maybe next year!

The photo on the right is when we went to Trento in northern Italy. Efisio introduced me to his friend, Theo. Theo is a robot dog inventor and sled dog fan! He brought these cool robot dogs with him that I’m posing with in the photo. I’ve never seen anything like it before. They interacted with their surroundings like actual dogs. It made me want one! Theo says his dream is to make a robot sled dog that can race with real dogs. He showed me pictures of the dog he's trying to build, and I told him I’d love to race my team against it one day!

Now for the most important part of this post. The reason why I went to Italy—it was to pick up Ilion’s newest team member, Elba! One of the many reasons why I couldn’t participate in big races this year was because I scouted many new members for the team—well, most of them were by chance, like Elba. I sent Elba to Italy for a few weeks because she was terribly homesick. Originally, her owner was going to send her back to Alaska alone, but I really needed a break from work and training, so I volunteered to go get her.

Group
In the photo above, she was playing one of her favorite songs on the piano. Her sister, Fico, accompanied us and even gifted me some white truffles that she found! Fico expressed interest in being a sled dog too, but I think she was intimidated by the amount of running. I told her if she ever changed her mind then she’s welcome to join us anytime. For now she’ll support Elba and the team from the side! I don’t want to spoil too much, so please check out Elba’s dog page. Honami also did an interview with her, so please read it if you can! It gave me a good laugh. Elba’s personality is really fascinating~

Until next time, ciao!

Wormssss

posted by Staff Dani

So there's been a constant downpour here in Diogenes. It's been so much, I started to wonder if it would flood, but turns out we ended up getting a flood of something else... :) Worms!

They're everywhere! Big ones, small ones, slow ones, fast ones... (Seriously!) We even had a patient come in crying recently because her dog gobbled up a worm in her garden... (Her dog's fine now by the way, don't worry!). Earthworms are invasive to Alaska and they're very bad for the ecosystem! Since our dogs can't train in this poor weather anyways, I started a worm taskforce to help me catch all these loose nood-ley varmints! They're all probably from imported soil, which is actually a pretty common occurrence when it comes to invasive species... Small things like this can have a really big impact in the long run though... Sometimes people will dump their fishing bait carelessly too (Handle your soil and bait properly!)

Polina said I should just leave it and that they'll all be wiped out in the cold... Although it's true that they probably won't survive the harsh winter, the fate of the Alaskan ecosystem depends on me... Plus it's good to handle it now 'cause you never know... :p Once I catch all these wiggly worms, I'll enlist them in compost duty... I take great care of our compost, so they won't ever escape and end up in some poor dog's gut again...

With all that being said, dogs should never eat worms since they contain a lot of harmful bacteria that could seriously hurt them... If you feel your dog has worms, come by the clinic for some of our homemade dewormer! FDA APPROVED! (FEDERAL DANI ADMINISTRATION.)

Edit: Our dewormer is NOT homemade and is federally tested and approved!

New site and interviews

posted by Staff Honami

Hi~ It’s me, Honami!

I’m so happy that we can finally share Ilion’s new website. Dani and I have been working tirelessly alongside Hector to make it happen. There’s still many things we want to add, but for now we hope you can enjoy browsing what we have so far. Also, I finally finished conducting and transcribing the interviews with all of the dogs. You can read them on each of the dog’s pages under the “interview” tab. It was a lot of fun doing the interviews with them–each dog is so interesting! If you happen to stop by the clinic, feel free to tell me which interview was your favorite!

Above is a photo that Polina took of me after I had finished compiling all of the interviews. Please don’t mind my messy desk.

Thank you for supporting Ilion! Until next time, bye bye!

Training season

posted by Ilion Musher

Hello! It’s been a while since I made a post, I’m really sorry! The training season started a while ago so we’ve been working hard!

Usually during the summer, I use a simple cart to train the dogs, but Andrew told me he had a spare ATV back at his kennel, so we took a trip up to Cantwell to retrieve it. Midway, we stopped by Talkeetna to rest. Andrew drove so fast that we had some spare time to sightsee. There was a painted photo stand of mushers and sled dogs, so we asked a kind stranger to take a photo for us. I really like it so I wanted to share it here! The weather was really nice and we could see Denali from afar! It was a much needed break. I had a lot of fun!

Group
Even though the midnight sun is here, we didn’t want to get back to Diogenes too late—and you would think that the ATV on the back of the truck would slow Andrew down, but he managed to get us back to the sanctuary before it was dinner time. Sometimes I wish I could drive like a Texan, but I think I’m fine going the exact speed limit—but maybe that’s why Andrew is an Iditarod winner, and I'm not!

After the dogs had their dinner, Andrew unloaded the ATV and test drove it around the trails. A few of the dogs were really interested in it, but others were scared of the loud noise it made. Here’s a video of Hina and Marya; they were brave enough to face it and weren’t bothered by the sound at all!

Group
I think once the dogs get used to the sound it makes we will be using it often! I can’t wait!

By the way, Andrew recommended doing summer tours as a way to bring in extra income for the team and to help the dogs with training. He’s been doing tours at his kennel for the past few years, so he says he’s willing to help. I like the idea of it, so I'll talk with everyone about it soon. If everyone agrees to it, we may have Ilion tours in the future!

Ilion cafe~✰

Hello everyone~✨! Recently there’s been a lot of customers coming by the cafe, and all of the treats have been selling out so fast! So Sparky🐶, Eleky🐭, and I🎀 have been working really hard to make sure there’s enough for everyone who stops by! Here’s a little video I took of the two making a yummy blended iced coffee🐶☕🐭. It’s really cute, right💞?

Group
And here’s a super cute pic I took of Eleky🐭✨ posing next to some of our completed masterpieces~ Doesn’t he look so proud💖? Well, he should be because the treats came out soooo good~~~~! It’s difficult not to eat it all ourselves. If Sparky🐶 and I🎀 try to eat anything, Eleky gets angry🐭😡! Don’t forget that all of our treats are dog friendly! Except for our coffee…Please don’t give coffee to your dogs!🚫☕🚫🐶

Training season starts now!

posted by Ilion Musher

We just finished our last race of the winter season! The Placidia Trail Race 2024- Mid distance race (120km). We came in 5th place this year which is a huge improvement from last year—11th place! The team has been working really hard to improve their endurance and speed, and I’m really proud of them! The team roster used for the Placidia Trail Race was Alto, Timmy, Aurora, Tanya, Kamira, Hyoji, Bo, Hina, Kirsi, Canela, and Ponchik. Great job, everyone!

Due to everything that's going on I wasn’t able to participate in many races this winter season. I know I said I would talk about why I wasn’t able to race in the Iditarod this year in another blog post, but not yet. I promise I will talk about it eventually—and don’t worry! It’s all very exciting news, so please wait patiently!

Everyone, let's do our best next winter! Let the training season begin!

First blog post!

posted by Ilion Musher

Hello everyone! I want to thank Honami and Dani for setting this blog up! From now on we will be using this blog to keep everyone updated about our activities here and abroad. For our first official post, I’d like to announce that our training uniforms have finally arrived! They’re quite simple, but I think it fits the image of the team nicely, and everyone seems to like them! Here’s a nice photo of Sammy showing off how it looks! I can’t wait for everyone to wear them for the upcoming training season, which is coming up very soon.

One more announcement I have is that I unfortunately had to drop the team out of this upcoming Iditarod. There’s a lot of factors into why I made the decision, but I will save the details for another blog post.

Finally, the other Ilion staff will have access to this blog, so please look forward to updates from them too! I’ll try my best to update this blog when I have time. Thank you everyone for supporting us and Happy New Year!

Down the path through the entrance gates you'll find where the story of Ilion all began. Before our sanctuary grew to what it is today, our humble clinic was all that occupied these grounds. It is a symbol of our desire for animal welfare: a place of warmth, kindness, and healing. Our team is composed of professionally trained veterinarians and assistants, experienced with animals of all kinds.
We offer routine check ups, diagnostics, vaccinations, dental services, microchipping, minor surgeries, and more. Please note that we are not an emergency hospital; however, our staff is well-trained in critical care and triage.

•We are open for the majority of the year sans major holidays
•Appointments: Call or in-person (Walk-ins permitted)

Hector

Lead Veterinarian

Hector is our lead veterinarian, and the founder of the Ilion Sanctuary! They have a whole page dedicated to them and their history leading up to the foundation of the Sanctuary.

Take a look here!

Polina

Veterinarian

Originally from Sitka, Polina is the second in command here at Ilion, and often takes over the clinic when Hector is out training and racing the team. The two have been close friends since studying veterinary medicine together during university in Fairbanks.
From diagnosing illnesses, providing physical exams, and determining medications—Polina is an incredibly diligent and reputable veterinarian who, despite her cold demeanor, cares deeply about the well-being of her animal patients.
Her dog Suya, who she’s training to become a certified ESA, can be seen following her around the office.

Dani

Vet Tech

Hailing all the way from Philadelphia, Dani moved to Alaska with an interest in arctic and glacier worms. Her life's work is making sure that all patients and animals in the sanctuary are safe and healthy from any potential parasites and bacteria!
Aside from making sure everyone is parasite-free; Dani provides assistance to our veterinarians with exams, medications, and will occasionally oversee appointments when days get busy. On her days off she loves to travel outside of Diogenes to nearby glaciers to study more about the worms, bringing them back for the dogs and staff to see, describing them with a fascinated glee.

Honami

Receptionist/Vet Tech

From a young age Honami has loved marine biology and dreamt of working at the marine center near the Sea of Okhotsk in Hokkaido. Being born into a military family, however, led her to moving too far and too often to settle in one place.
But her love for animals prevailed, and after finishing university with a degree in animal health and marine biology, she eventually found her way to Diogenes–where she fell in love with the town and its surroundings, making it her new home. Honami single-handedly takes care of the Ilion clinic’s reception work, sometimes also personally assisting the vets.

Jacky

Breed: Labradoodle

The heart of the clinic, Jacky! She is the Ilion musher's personal assistant and also works as a support dog for the sled team. Though she was born deaf, the musher has taught her sign language, so she is easily able to navigate her daily life!

Roxy

Breed: Miniature Schnauzer

Roxy is one of our beloved assistants that you can always spot following closely behind Jacky–you could consider her Jacky's assistant! She's easily excitable and sometimes she can be quite clumsy, but that shouldn’t detract from the fact that she’s incredibly helpful and hardworking!

Lotte

Breed: Rottweiler

Lotte is brimming with a calming aura. Due to this, she was trained to be a therapy dog to help anxious patients. She is mostly seen in the back of the clinic to accompany the vet staff during their appointments.

Suya

Breed: Dachsund

Suya belongs to our vet staff, Polina–she is currently being trained to become an emotional support dog. She roams the front office and stays closely by Polina. If you see her, feel free to say hello!

With the help of Meryem, our dedicated nanny dog, Ilion offers a stimulating daily adventure for your beloved companion at our doggy daycare! Boasting both an outdoor playground for your dog to enjoy the fresh Alaskan breeze, and an indoor section for when the weather gets rough, our variety of playdate programs are designed for dog breeds of all shapes and sizes.
We do not offer onboarding at the moment, but we do plan to expand our services in the future! Our doggy daycare was built as a thanks to the town of Diogenes for their ongoing support of Ilion; therefore, Diogenes residents can enroll their dogs in our daycare program free of charge.

•We accept enrollment through in-person query only

Ilion's Nanny Dog
Breed: Anatolian Shepherd

Meryem was once a herding dog in Rize, Turkey, and would help her owner shepherd sheep and goats. Having been trained exceptionally well, she had a second sense for finding any of the livestock with just her nose—she was especially protective of the lambs and kid goats. However, a few years ago, she injured her leg on the job and wasn’t able to work as well as she used to. As a result, her owner had to retire her, adopting a new herding dog to take her place. Meryem’s injury has completely healed now, but her veterinarian recommended against letting her herd again, as she can’t overexert herself lest she possibly reinjure her leg to the point where it becomes irreparable.
Although her new retired life was cushiony and stress-free, she was yearning to feel depended on again. Her owner saw how depressed she had become, and sought out the Ilion musher for their assistance—and just their luck! The Sanctuary, wanting to give back to the town of Diogenes, was in the process of starting a daycare program for the town and its residents. It was the perfect fit for Meryem!

Meryem

☆Ilion's Dog Groomer & Stylist☆

Although Paris is the younger sister of our Sanctuary's Musher, she spent much of her life on the coast of Southern France with close family friends attending a prestigious all-girls academy. While she did enjoy her experience there, she spent her daily life following her graduation feeling aimless until a series of fateful events led her to pursue dog grooming. The plethora of methods and vast variety of styles piqued her interest.
Paris started studying the art of dog grooming and soon began to enter competitions; bringing home many awards and medals! She came to understand that it was her life’s calling to make every dog as beautiful as can be! As she continued to rise in popularity within the world of dog grooming, she came to learn about the Ilion Sanctuary’s notoriety as an altruistic and competitive organization. Though it wasn’t an easy move, Paris relocated to Alaska to reunite with our Musher in order to start her very own salon. It wasn’t as glitzy or glamorous as the dog show world, but she found the work to be incredibly fulfilling.

WEBSITE NOTES

October 13 - Firefox and Mobile

"Mobile is finally here (phones and tablets)! Actually it's been here for about a week before I made this note update. I apologize that the cool features and layout, such as the snow, of the PC version are not available on mobile, but at least you can still enjoy all of the content! Kiang has been busy with school, so I sought out help on fiverr. The amazing Rokibul helped us optimize the site for mobile AND fixed the firefox issues (both on mobile and PC). He was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him if you're stuck with any coding issues. I'm really happy that Ilion is available on mobile now because I want everyone to be able to see the website!"

July 31 - Website launch

"Hello everyone, thank you for taking a look at Ilion's new website! The new site has been almost 2 years in the making. I started drawing the dog page thumbnails back in November of 2022. Originally it was going to be released in 2023, but there have been many delays. Balancing work, other projects, and just being tired amongst a plethora of other things caused me to work so slowly…But I'd rather work slowly and carefully than to put out a rushed product! I think I can safely say now that I am very happy with everything and am very excited for everyone to see!
Also I want to thank my amazing friend Kiang for doing the coding and for bearing all of my countless instructions and changes. He's been incredible to work with as always! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for working with me, Kiang! By the way, the two of us often work together on games and such~ So keep an eye out for our future projects together!
Also, another big thank you to Aoneko-san for designing the website layout! They followed my ideas and instructions perfectly and created something so amazing for Ilion! I'm still amazed at how Kiang was able to put together Aoneko-san's work into a functioning website, exactly as it looks from the examples drafted up! Thank you so much!
And of course, thank you to all my friends who have contributed dogs, artwork, characters, and other assets! The world of Ilion wouldn't be what it is today without all of you! And lastly, thank you to my editors and beta testers for spotting errors and such that I missed! You guys have helped greatly in contributing to the website's function!
Seriously, thank you everyone. I know the site is not perfect across all devices, especially mobile, but I'd like to continuously update this site from time to time with Kiang so that the world of Ilion can stay alive! There's many characters and dogs that I've created since I first started the project, and I really want to introduce everyone~ So please look forward to our future updates!!"
-Roby

"I started working on this website in Fall 2022, and I built it from scratch, like literally a blank file folder. I've learned a lot of web development techniques since then, and while I am very happy with how the Ilion site came out in the end, there's a lot I would do differently if I were to create another website.

That's a good thing, though—it means that I seriously levelled up my skills. If you really try to break the site, you'll find a bunch of jank. But, everything is there for a reason—it was a welcome challenge to perfectly recreate the diagrams of Roby and Aoneko-san, which were often incredibly specific and required creative workarounds. But, as you can see, they look AWESOME and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Roby really went and coordinated with 30+ other artists for all of the dogs on the site, which is seriously incredible. Me, I have trouble scheduling a 5-person D&D night. I'd like to give my congrats and thanks to everyone who worked to put this art project together!

It is my earnest hope that everyone can enjoy the wonderful, creative world of Ilion."
