Why did the driver put dave in the harness, knowing that it would kill him?

Dave, like the other dogs, lives to pull sled. Dave will die anyway so the driver lets Dave do what he loves until he dies. I think that was his way of rewarding Dave. Dave would not have wanted to die sitting around.

You need to submit each of your questions one at a time. Thanks.
