To increase the acceleration of the dog sled, the best option is to add another dog to the sled.

According to Newton's second law of motion (F=ma), acceleration (a) increases as the net force (F) increases and/or mass (m) decreases. If you add another dog, the force exerted by the team increases, which can lead to a greater overall acceleration, assuming other factors such as friction and resistance remain constant.
