Norwegian Lundehund

The Norwegian Lundehund is a unique and versatile dog breed known for its distinctive physical features and historical origins. Originally bred to hunt puffins on Norway's rocky cliffs, they possess extraordinary adaptations such as at least six fully developed toes on each foot, providing exceptional grip and agility. Their highly flexible shoulder joints allow their legs to extend outward, aiding balance and maneuverability. Additionally, they have a flexible neck that enables their head to bend backward to touch their spine, enhancing their reach when hunting. Their temperament is characterized as alert, active, loyal, and moderately affectionate, making them attractive companions for active families.
