ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) – The Matanuska-Susitna Borough mayor and a dog musher are suing each other over an agreement to train together for this year’s Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. The Alaska Dispatch News reports that Gwen Bogart, of Wasilla, had filed her suit against Mayor Vern Halter in December, alleging that Halter broke a contract by failing to provide her training, housing and a dog team. She is asking him to return a $15,000 deposit. Halter denies owing her the deposit and claims she owes him money.
