Once known as the “Barking Bird Dog,” the Finnish Spitz gives his devoted owners much to howl and yodel about! Handsome and sharp as a fox, loyal, lively and entertaining, this is a distinctive pure-bred that was originally bred as a hunter and today is well regarded as a family pet and show dog. The breed’s bright red coat fairly glows, dramatically contrasting with his dark, soulful and intelligent eyes. For an active family and owner on their toes, the Finnish Spitz guarantees to challenge and delight. This book provides the much-needed factual information about Finkies and their ancestry, characteristics and standard, as well as puppy selection, feeding, training, preventative health care and behavior of the breed. The new owner will welcome advice about puppy-proofing the home, preparing for the pup’s arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems. In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive.
