Traditionally bred by the Sami people to herd reindeer, this breed is admired for its courage, loyalty, and versatility. Despite its working heritage, the Finnish Lapphund is also a gentle and affectionate companion at home.

Their coats come in a wide range of colours, including black, brown, cream, and sable, often with distinctive markings. They are energetic, intelligent, and quick to learn, making them highly adaptable dogs suited for both active rural living and modern family homes. Brave yet friendly, Finnish Lapphunds are known for their strong bond with their families. They are affectionate, patient with children, and thrive on companionship.
