The Norwegian Lundehund's Behavior

Recommended for: pet, working dog

The Norwegian Lundehund dog breed is one of the most "primitive" breeds. Therefore it is as stubborn as it can get and obstinate with a mind of its own. Norwegian Lundehunds will require consistent training. Socialization will also be important to get them acquainted with other animals and people. Once properly housebroken they make fine, energetic, and playful companions and are very tolerant with boisterous children, only as long as the children are recognized as part of the family.

Remember that breed only provides a general clue as to any individual dog's actual behavior. Make sure to get to know dogs well before bringing them into your home.

Country/Region of Origin: Norway

Original purpose: hunting

Name: from 'lunde' which is Norwegian for puffin and "hund" for dog; also known as the Norsk Lundehund, Norwegian Puffin Dog, and Lundehund.

Historical notes: Norwegian Lundehund dogs have been hunting puffins along the coasts of Norway as far back as the 17th century. By the time World War II began, only 5 of them were left because of neglect and dog tax. Careful and intensive breeding revived their numbers back to a few thousand around the world.
