This article tells the story of the dog teams of the British Antarctic Expedition 1910–13. Its purpose is to establish an accurate record of sledge dog involvement in the expedition. It is not concerned with hypotheses about how a better outcome for the expedition might have been achieved, aiming simply to assemble and analyse verifiable evidence in chronological order. A substantial amount of research has been undertaken. Straightforward details about procurement of the dogs and their main Antarctic journeys have been summarised in tabular form as an accessible reference source for future work. A literature review has been undertaken, finding that none of the reviewed works accurately traces the evolving plans and instructions for the expedition’s dog teams. The story starts with Scott’s September 1909 public fundraising prospectus and goes on to the procurement and training of Huskies from Siberia. It traces the challenges, achievements, attitudes and management decisions that shaped the dogs’ main journeys. It finishes with Terra Nova leaving the Antarctic, with the last 13 dogs in January 1913. The dog teams and their handlers performed well in the Antarctic and successfully completed three of their four main journeys. They made a substantial contribution to the expedition.

1910-13 年英国南极探险队的狗

这篇文章讲述了 1910-13 年英国南极探险队的狗队的故事。其目的是建立雪橇犬参与探险的准确记录。它不关心关于如何为探险取得更好结果的假设,其目的只是按时间顺序收集和分析可验证的证据。已经进行了大量的研究。有关狗的采购及其主要南极之旅的直接细节已以表格形式总结为未来工作的可访问参考来源。已经进行了文献审查,发现没有一篇审查的作品准确地追踪了探险队的狗队不断发展的计划和指示。故事从斯科特 1909 年 9 月的公开募捐说明书开始,然后是从西伯利亚采购和训练哈士奇犬。它追溯了塑造狗的主要旅程的挑战、成就、态度和管理决策。它以特拉诺瓦1913 年 1 月,带着最后 13 只狗离开南极。狗队及其训犬员在南极表现出色,成功完成了四次主要旅程中的三次。他们为这次探险做出了重大贡献。
