The Norwegian Buhund Breed Standard calls for a height of 17¾" with the bitches slightly smaller, and although they are lightly built are very solid .  The usual colour is wheaten, but wolf-sable, black and light red are also permissible.  The coat is smooth and less abundant than some of the spitz dogs and fairly easily to keep.

They are a biddable and easily trained dog, good with children and undemanding; he likes to be involved but is not pushy in the manner of some breeds.  Although the Norwegian Buhund has been in the UK for quite some time he has never become an especially popular breed and obtaining a puppy would take some patience.

Norwegian Buhund Rescue and Rehoming

Contact a Breed Club. They should be able to give you information about dogs requiring homes and procedures for re-homing; if you are in the unfortunate position of having to re-home your own Buhund, please go through breed rescue. They will not be judgmental and are best able to find the right permanent home for him.
