• Brand New Breed: Norrbottenspets in Canada After five years in the Miscellaneous group, the Swedish Norrbottenspets is officially recognized as a breed by the Canadian Kennel Club as of January 1994. Besides the Norwegian Elkhound, Finnish Spitz and Drever, the Norrbottenspets is the fourth Scandinavian hunting dog in the Hound Group. • Norbottenspets Picture, Facts, Information The little spitz of Sweden and Finland began long ago as a hunter of small game. Called the Pohjanpystykorva in Finland, it was taken by immigrant farmers to northern Sweden where it was given an even longer name, the Norrbottens-skollandehund. The Norbottenspets was thought to be extinct and was dropped from the rolls of the Swedish KC in 1948. |
