The Finnish Lapphund is a medium-sized breed of dog that is a member of the Spitz typing. The breed is also commonly known as the 'Lapinkoira Suomenlapinkoira' in its native country of Finland. Despite being an incredibly popular breed within Finland and other Nordic countries, the Finnish Lapphund is relatively rare in the other countries of the world. The Finnish Lapphund lineage is that of a female wolf-male dog hybridization that occurred post-domestication around 3000 years ago. The breed was originally developed to be a reindeer herder for the Sami people. The Sami are an indigenous people who reside in areas that are now classified as Finland, Sweden, Norway and Russia. The Sami have used dogs to herd reindeer for centuries and have always prioritized breeds with long bodies of a rectangular shape, long haired coats and long straight tail that has the ability to curl over the dog's back. The Finnish Lapphund is the most similar modern breed to that of the long haired reindeer herders developed by the Sami people. The Finnish Lapphund is a compactly built muscular breed with large, pricked and highly mobile ears. The breed also has a profuse double coat with a short, fluffy undercoat and a longer top coat. The breed;s double coat allows them to be virtually waterproof and have a high resistence to extreme cold. The breed also has a large amount of hair around its neck which gives the impression of a lion's mane. Due to their history and background in herding, the Finnish Lapphund is a highly energetic breed that excels in dog agility trials, mushing, carting and herding events at dog shows. The Finnish Lapphund is also incredibly intelligent and obedient which makes training the breed relatively easy. The breed is also known to be incredibly friendly, good natured, gentle, alert and loyal. However they do have a tendency to bark at strangers, unknown dogs and unfamiliar things. The Finnish Lapphund is a perfect choice for families with children as they are incredibly adaptable and responsive.
