The Norwegian Elkhound
Dog Breed in Brief:
From his ancient heritage as a
hunting and guard dog companion to the Vikings,
the Norwegian Elkhound is a fearless hunter of
moose and other big game in Scandinavia. This
scent hound is a sturdy, medium-sized, gray dog
which remains relatively unchanged in breed type
for thousands of years. This hardy, intelligent
dog is fiercely loyal to his master while
maintaining his independence. Norwegian
Elkhounds were first imported into this country
in the early 1900's. Today, they continue to be
versatile as companions to the active family and
as competitors in the breed, obedience and
agility show rings. |
