Norwegian Buhund Dog Breed Temperament, Health Issues, Grooming and Living Conditions
- 23/11/2010
Temperament: Here we see a cheerful, active, with untiring vigilance, attentive, and intelligent dog. This breed needs consistent firm leadership, as they can be headstrong, but given the right leadership, they are loving and wish to cuddle up to their owners. The Norwegian Buhund requires physical and mental stimulation, as they are quick to learn, and have lots of energy.
Here we see a dog that is a natural guard dog. This breed is good with children. With good obedience training they are a joy to own. This is an active dog and will require lots of exercise. Providing the dog sees you as the pack leader, and you are the alpha, they make a good house pet. Problems will arise if the balance of leadership is not maintained, through good leadership from you.
Health issues: The Norwegian Buhund are prone to an inherited eye issues and hip dysplasia. It's important to keep your dog up to date on all vaccinations, de-wormings and heart worm preventatives.
Grooming: The Norwegian Buhund breed has a short to medium length, easy cared for coat, that does not tangle, or mat, when shedding. Brushing weekly will be fine, but extra brushing is required, when the dog is shedding, this is seasonal and is fairly heavy.
Living conditions: This breed is better in a home with at least a small well fenced garden, as the Norwegian Buhund is very active and will require plenty of exercise. This dog can live in larger apartments, allowing for the fact that the dog needs to roam, a small apartment will not work.
