Jämthund
The Jämthund typifies balance: strong yet sensitive, independent yet deeply loyal, powerful in the field yet calm in the home. With its attractive wolf-gray coat, keen intelligence, and noble bearing, it stands as one of the most versatile spitz breeds in the world.
Fun Fact
The Jämthund (also known as the Swedish Elkhound) hails back to ancient spitz-type dogs brought to the harsh northern forests and mountains of Jämtland to hunt elk and defend against large predators like bears and wolves.
