Finnish Spitz and Finnish Spitz pictures
The Finnish Spitz or Finsk Spets is the national dog of Finland.
He is an independent, reserved, cautious and sometimes aloof breed.
As he was bred to be a hunter he needs to be kept in a secure fenced
yard or he may go off on a hunting expedition. Sensitive and strong
minded he is loyal to his human family and loves being with children.
Once used as to hunt bear and elk by the Finns, he was called the
Finnish Hunting Dog as well as the Barking Bird Dog. Now he is used
to hunt grouse and other game birds. Related to the Russian Laika,
the breed originated in the eastern area of Finland. The coat of
the Finnish Spitz is a double one, with a short, soft and lighter
shade of undercoat and a longer, denser topcoat.
The Finnish Spitz most certainly deserves its position as the national
dog of Finland.
It is also known as the Suomenpystykorva, Finsk Spets.
