Abstract
A platform member formed of a plurality of elongate slats in contiguous communication relative to one another includes a forward, rear, and medial support bar that are mounted to a respective forward brush bow, forward right and left support legs, and a handle construction respectively. The organization includes a plurality of junctions, each junction including a discrete and unique connector structure to effect ease of assembly and securement of the components of the organization in an integral assemblage.

A dog sled construction, comprising in combination,
- a platform member, the platform member including a forward support bar fixedly mounted to a forward distal end of the platform member orthogonally oriented relative to the platform member, a medical support bar orthogonally and integrally mounted medially of the platform member, and a rear support bar mounted to a rear distal end of the platform member, wherein the rear support bar, the forward support bar, and the medial support bar are arranged in a parallel relationship, and
- a right "J" shaped skid positioned below the platform member and extending forwardly of the platform member secured to a right distal end of the forward support bar, and a left "J" shaped skid oriented parallel to the right "J" shaped skid positioned below the platform member and extending forwardly to the forward support bar fixedly mounted to a left distal end of the forward support bar, and
- a forward right support leg fixedly mounted to a right distal end of the medial support bar and extending below the medial support bar fixedly mounted to the right skid, and
- a forward left support leg oriented parallel to the forward right leg fixedly and orthogonally mounted to the medial support bar extending below the medial support bar and fixedly secured to the left "J" shaped skid, and
- a rear right support leg mounted to a right distal end of the rear support bar extending below the rear support bar fixedly mounted to the right skid, and
- a rear left support leg fixedly mounted to a left distal end of the rear support bar extending below the rear support bar and orthogonally oriented thereto, wherein a lower distal end of the rear left support leg is fixedly mounted to the left skid, wherein the rear right support leg is positioned rearwardly of the forward right support leg and the rear left support leg is positioned rearwardly of the forward left support leg, and
- a "U" shaped handle including a right handle leg and a left handle leg arranged parallel relative to one other, wherein the right handle leg is secured to an upper distal end of the rear right support leg extending downwardly below the support position and fixedly secured to the right skid between the rear right support leg and the forward right support leg, and
- the left handle leg mounted to an upper distal end of the rear left support leg extending downward below the support platform and fixedly secured to the left skid between the rear left support leg and the forward left support leg, and
- a right side bar mounted adjacent the upper terminal end of the rear right support leg extending forwardly of the rear right support leg fixedly secured to an upper terminal end of the forward right support leg secured to the platform member, and
- a left side bar secured adjacent the rear left support leg extending forwardly thereof and mounted fixedly to an upper terminal end of the forward left support extending forwardly thereof secured to the support member, and
- a brush bow having a right bow leg and as left bow leg, the right bow leg fixedly secured to the lower terminal end of the forward right support leg an the forward terminal end of the right skid and fixedly secured to a forward terminal end of the left bow leg, wherein the left bow leg is mounted adjacent the lower terminal end of the forward left support leg and the left distal end of the forward support bar.
