Yesterday, team Bielkersmils, my husband Håkan and the dogs Titan, Crux, Eimo and Saiko, finally reached the finish line after three hundred kilometers of competition.
Håkan skied and the dogs pulled a sledge with the obligatory equipment. Unfortunately the dogs were not as well trained as we had planned them to be because the training conditions in January and February were really bad with ice everywhere.
They finished fourth in their World Cup status, beaten only by three Siberian Husky teams.
Håkan and our dogs were the only Samoyed team among all classes and I am so proud of their achievement.
Below are some pictures from the competition.
