Norwegian Buhunds
This "herding spitz" is bound to make its mark in this country, as a sought-after family breed. In the country of origin, this dog was used for herding, hunting, and protecting around the farms in the rough climate of Norway. Extremely intelligent, and people-oriented, they love to please. Medium size, easy-care coat, and good disposition will make this breed your perfect companion.
In this country, there are Norwegian Buhunds excelling in obedience, agility, and herding competitors. There are also Buhunds in service as hearing ear and service dogs.
As a family pet, they enjoy being with their "people". Being an active breed they require regular exercise for their mental and physical well being. The average weight is 30-40 pounds. They are a shedding breed, and "blow" their coat twice a year, but are a clean dog with little doggy odor. They are also a vocal breed, using their barn to warn their family of strangers, squirrels, etc in their environment.
