I live in the town of Kilsyth in Central Scotland. I have been breeding Finnish lapphunds since retiring from the MOD Police where I trained and handled dogs for 17 years. My aim is to breed healthy Finnish Lapphunds with good temperaments that can bring years of happiness to their owners. |
About this breed
For centuries the Sami of Northern Finland used dogs of this type to guard and herd reindeer. In 1945 the Finnish Kennel Club recognised the breed as the Lappish Herder but in 1993 the breed gained its present title. The breed is now popular through out his native country as a companion dog.
