Q&A
answer · Norwegian Buhund
I sometimes let him off-leash, but only when I’m sure the area is secure. They can be a bit cheeky and might wander off!
answer · Norwegian Buhund
Teaching "settle" early has been extremely beneficial for my Norwegian Buhund. They can get a bit hyper, so having that command helps manage their excitement. It’s a lifesaver when we have guests over. Plus, it calms them down after a play session, letting them know it’s time to relax.
answer · Norwegian Buhund
One of the funniest moments was when my Buhund thought he could 'help' me cook. He jumped up and tried to grab a carrot right off the counter. It was unexpected, but his guilty face afterwards was priceless.
answer · Norwegian Buhund
Yes, my Buhund always wants to be in the same room. If I’m cooking or working, he’s always at my feet. They crave that closeness with their humans.
question · Norwegian Buhund
Would you recommend an Icelandic Sheepdog?
answer · Norwegian Buhund
Yes, it’s incredible how they can sense things like that. They're so in tune with us.
answer · Norwegian Buhund
My Icelandic Sheepdog has this adorable habit of following me around the house, always wanting to be near. It’s heartwarming and makes me feel loved.
answer · Norwegian Buhund
My Buhund's favorite activity is actually swimming! He jumps right into the water without hesitation, which always surprises newcomers at the beach. It's funny because he loves to splash around trying to catch floating toys. He has a unique talent for retrieving sticks, and I think he's part fish!
answer · Norwegian Buhund
I totally relate to that! My Norwegian Buhund has this knack for reading the room. Just the mention of a walk or a car ride sends him into a frenzy. It’s fascinating how they can sense our intentions even before we act. They thrive on companionship and adventure. I’ve read that they’re known for their enthusiasm, and it definitely shows in my dog!
answer · Norwegian Buhund
I strongly recommend getting a Norwegian Buhund. They have such a vibrant personality and are incredibly energetic, which means they need lots of exercise and mental stimulation. I've found that they can be quite vocal, and they love to 'talk' to you, which can be amusing. Their herding background makes them great with kids, as they have a protective nature. Just remember to socialize them early and provide plenty of activities, or they might get bored and cause some mischief.
