first indications of being a triathlon dog

We had a loooong weekend. On Friday we drove to the biggest triathlon race in the Baltics - TriSmile Triathlon at Pühajärve. Marko had planned to be a referee on two days, I was a referee on Saturday and raced 111 km on Sunday. We were worried about having to leave Erk by himself for the time we were busy, but it turned out just great. He was the favourite of a all the volunteers and fellow racers, so the time I spent racing and Marko spent working, there were always some people wanting to play with Erk. And when he got tired, no problem what so ever to sleep while the fuss was all around him.
On spot, bicycles and race gear were so interesting for Erk, they probably smell of rubber and oil and sweat and stuff. Erk proved he has a good spirit of sports - he showed polite interest and support towards competitors and their equipment, and was bringing smiles to peoples faces.
So, all in all, he has shown that he will be a good dog to take to the races, behaves well and gets along with people.
back to work - finally some peace and quiet :)
