Migration is part of life. All material is loaded on the sledges and moved to a different loacation. When the spring season starts the forest Nenets move to the Ural region. This needs to be done in time when they have to cross the Ob river, befor the ice melts and it will not be possible to cross anymore.
Reindeer and sledge.

Samoyed dog. Samoyeds' friendly disposition makes them poor guard dogs; an aggressive Samoyed is rare. With their tendency to bark, however, they can be diligent watch dogs, barking whenever something approaches their territory. Samoyeds are excellent companions, especially for small children or even other dogs, and they remain playful into old age. When Samoyeds become bored, they may begin to dig. With their sled dog heritage, a Samoyed is not averse to pulling things, and an untrained Samoyed has no problem pulling its owner on a leash rather than walking alongside. Samoyeds were also used to herd reindeer. They will instinctively act as herd dogs, and when playing with children, especially, will often attempt to turn and move them in a different direction. The breed is characterized by an and happy expression which has earned the nicknames "Sammie smile" and "smiley dog." (Wikipedia)
