Finnish LapphundThe Finnish Lapphund is one of the spitz-like dogs from the arctic region. Often called as The Dog from the Land of Midnight Sun, this husky breed is characterized by its square typed body and long hair. The Finnish Lapphund is said to have had its beginnings as early as 7000 BC. The breed was once called the Lapponian Shepherd Dog and was officially called the “Finnish Lapphund” only in 1993. It is one of the most popular breeds in Finland as is sometimes known as the “Suomenlapinkoira” or simply “Lapinkoira.” |

Finnish SpitzThe Finnish Spitz is a small dog that has fox-like features. It has dark, almond shaped eyes, forward pointed ears, black nose and lips and a pointed muzzle that encases teeth that form a scissor bite. Just like its Japanese counterpart, the Finnish Spitz has a tail that is curled across its back. It also has rounded, cat like feet that come with dew claws. However, these claws are removed from the rear legs of dogs that participate in shows. |

French BulldogThe French Bulldog is a small dog that has a flat, square head, a rounded forehead, pug-like nose and large, perked-up ears. Its shoulders are wider than the tail area, giving the dog off a pear-shaped appearance. The French Bulldog’s skin, covered by a short yet soft coat, is quite loose, thus making it easy and quite enjoyable to pet. Its tail, on the other hand, can either be cork-screw or straight. |
