Marshall, Scott Janssen's Iditarod sled dog, is back home in Anchorage after a near-death experience on the trail. Janssen's daughter Chelsea Janssen visits with Marshall at the Millennium Hotel just after he was flown back to Anchorage. Scott Janssen revived Marshall after the dog collapsed during the race, giving him mouth-to-snout CPR by compressing the husky's chest and breathing into his nose.
