Snow Dog Jim Kjelgaard

The steel-gray Husky Chiri was just a puppy when he watched the black wolf kill his mother and two brothers. Left alone in the snow-covered land of the coyote, caribou, and gizzly, Chiri learned to fend for himself, to hunt and survive by his keen instinct and natural intelligence. Now full-grown and full of courage and cunning, Chiri forms a tentative bond with trapper Link Stevens, the only human he's ever learned to trust. But the Husky knows that one day soon he will have to face the black wolf again--and this time only one of them will survive.
