The Norrbottenspets is a rare Swedish spitz breed used for hunting small game. Small, agile, and alert, they're lively dogs with a friendly, outgoing nature. With their prick ears and curled tail, they're fox-like in appearance and spirited in personality.
They need daily exercise and mental stimulation—hunting games, agility, and long walks suit them well. Their short coat is easy to maintain with regular brushing. Norrbottenspets are affectionate with family and make good watchdogs. For active families seeking a rare, versatile hunting companion, the Norrbottenspets is exceptional.
