A signed and numbered 776/950 print by Alaska artist Fred Machetanz (1908-2002) entitled "The Grass is Always Greener", depicting five sled dog pups as they peer over the edge of a fence, on the other side of which is freedom to explore or play with other dogs, or even possibly tag along beside a big team while pretending to be a leader.

It was titled "Alaska Sled Dog" and told the story of a puppy from the time of birth to becoming a leader of a team.
