The veterinarian treating Lance Mackey's sled dog Zorro says he will make a full recovery from injuries suffered when he was hit by a snowmobile. 9-year old Zorro was in Mackey’s sled bag when a rogue snowmachiner barreled into his dog team shortly after departing the Safety checkpoint Friday night in the All Alaska Sweepstakes. Mackey’s sled was wrecked, and several dogs dinged-up, but it was Zorro who was injured most seriously.Paul Korchin, KNOM - Nome
