It’s no mystery that it costs money to raise and race dogs. Each dog comes with its own quirks, personalities, vet costs, training equipment and more! With our Sponsor a Diva program, you can help out!
Sponsorship happens at 5 different levels.
1. Buy dog treats and support Eva through her business. –temporarily on pause
2. Co-sponsor a dog – you and four other individuals support a Diva Dog of your choosing. Your co-sponsorship helps pay a fraction of the costs for that dog. You will receive updates and a picture of your dog. (And no, you don’t have to find 4 friends to join you, we do that part. You just donate your co-sponsor fee and when the dog has reached 5 sponsors, it is considered fully sponsored for the season.) Click the link below to sponsor – and/or send us a message to sponsor!
3. Exclusive Sponsor – don’t like sharing? Or maybe you want to see your favorite dog get fully sponsored right away! As an exclusive sponsor you will receive updates, a picture of your dog, and name on the DivaDog truck. Click the link below to sponsor – and/or send us a message to sponsor!
4. Big Dawg Sponsor – these guys pay the $$$ to put their logo on Eva’s sled bag, dog truck…you get the picture…email us if your company is interested in being a Big Dawg Sponsor at Katt@divadogsracing.com
5. Pit Crew – purchase anything from her current needs list and help her along the way! The Needs List can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/190URFEJTJF05?ref_=wl_share
All dog sponsors will receive a photograph of the sponsored dog, as well as monthly updates. Dog sponsors will be listed on the website unless noted that they want to remain anonymous. Sponsorship lasts one year.
We have online payment available! Don’t like online shopping? Send us an email and we can arrange other payment! Katt@divadogsracing.com

Inspire Litter –
Born of Cocoa (2025) and Jayce (2022) in January of 2018.
Brave
He looks exactly like his Mama Cocoa. Brave is a complex guy who knows what he likes and what he doesn’t. He is arguably the hardest working guy in the yard. He LOVES to pull! He can run any position but is shy.

Honor
Honor is an our lovable jock. He is crazy affectionate but a bit bigger than he realizes! He is a wheel dog but can run team as well. He’s the nervous nelly of the group and doesn’t really like to travel. He does love to pull though!

Hope – Sponsored!
She is affectionately called “Hopie” and is ALL love and affection. Hope was named after a dear friend of ours’ son, Levi, who suffers from a severely rare form of Muscular Dystrophy. Hope will always be easy to find as she gets the honor of wearing a blue harness which is the signature color for Levi’s Hope.
Please visit Levi’s Hope to learn more about Levi!
Hope is HAPPY!! LOVES EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE! She is an energizer bunny and does not like to stop. Hope has raced all but one race and she only sat out to give her brother a chance to run. She can run any position but wheel as she does not like the sound of the sled brake. She is very smart; she just needs maturity. She’s very much like her Daddy Jayce. No dog could ever replace Jayce but Hopie is pretty close in her personality.
Hope – Sponsored by The Gagner Family
True – Sponsored!
Aww, sweet True Girl…she is the littlest of the Inspire Litter but don’t let her size fool you! SHE IS ONE SMART COOKIE!
She is a bit skiddish but she uses those brains well by running in swing position. She loves to pull and has pretty much outsmarted all her litter mates.

Dream
Dream is a lovey, happy, go with the flow girl. She loves to run. She is always willing to go and do anything you ask her! She has done a great job training this season and can really run in any position. She’s not a strong leader yet but she’s learning!

Believe – Fully Sponsored!
MYSTERIOUS. That’s the best way to describe Miss Believe. She has a wonderfully happy bounce to her step, she has an excellent long and fast trot (something you really love to see in an endurance dog), but she is a bit like a cat. She likes you. She’s happy to see you. But…eh…whatevs. Don’t get us wrong, she’s a happy thing…but people aren’t necessarily her driving joy in life. She likes people but she doesn’t NEED them…you know?

Winter – Sponsored!
This goofy guy came to us the spring of 2023. He has ran several long distance races before he came to us. He is a wheel dog but don’t be surprised to see him in lead with Skruff. He’s not the most focused up there but he can do it! He is very mouthy but he’s definitely a worker!
Winter is Exclusively Sponsored by Kemp Farm!
The Stowaway Litter
This “oops” litter was born from Frost and Forest in March of 2022.
Knik
Knik is nicknamed “Mr. Serious” as he is the most chill pup we’ve ever had. He likes to do things on his own. He can tend to be the loner of the group. He also resembles his uncle, Pache, the most! Knik is a wheel dog as he does not like having any dogs running behind him.

Willow – Sponsored!
Willow is sweetness. She adores Mama Katt and will sit quietly at the gate when she sees her in the yard. She’s training in lead and swing position. She’s the clown of the group but is very serious in harness. The gal who resembles her mother’s personality the most! Look for her to be a main leader one day. Part one of the “Wonder Twins”.

MIR
Where do we start with this guy? Oh boy. Well he certainly made himself the diva spokesdog with his crazy personality and goofy facial expressions. He is training in lead as well as any position.
