Sports can't prove hunting ability. There aren't even field trials that can do that for the hunting spitz breeds here.

"It's illegal" isn't a valid excuse, especially if you spend a ton on and travel far for conformation shows. A dog traditionally used on treed grouse makes an awesome squirrel dog. A dog traditionally used on moose is also used on bear and boar.

If you don't want to hunt the dog, just admit that. Stop making up bullshit like "sports can prove hunting ability" because they absolutely cannot.

Nordics dogs

Finland - Finnish Lapphund. A very friendly spitz breed traditionally used for herding reindeer in Nordic countries

Sweden - Jämthund (Swedish Elkhound). A hunting dog used for hunting large game like elk, bear, and wolf. They're very calm with their family, but can be very dominant toward other dogs.

Denmark - Danish Spitz. Very lively, friendly, and brave dogs used as companion dogs and alarm dogs

Iceland - Icelandic Sheepdog. The only dog breed native to Iceland. They're very hardy, alert, and inquisitive dogs. Their main purpose is to herd sheep in Iceland, but they're also used as all-round farm dogs

Norway - Norwegian Lundehund. Super weird little dogs used for hunting puffins. They have extra toes to assist in climbing, they're extremely flexible, and can fold their ears to prevent water and dirt from getting in while hunting. They're very loyal, protective, and alert, but are often very independent.

If you’d want a Swedish dog breed for Iskall, I’d recommend either a Drever (short legged hunting dog, very cute) or a Jämthund (A huge softy with the fam). Coming from a fellow Swede, they’re the best breeds we got to offer

Ooo thank u! I'm not looking for a swedish breed in specific! Should made that clearer earlier jdjkskd But if it fits it fits! I just don't wanna back myself into a limited corner if there's another breed from somewhere else who would be a good match!

(Checked swedish vallhound in the previous ask!)

Drever i feel almost the same as the vallhound.. I think i do like this one a bit better looks wise tho! I realized I'm trying to avoid too many dogs with that husky/wolf look (category which Ren and Etho already fit, and Keralis who is gonna be a husky mix) because some variety is fun!

The thing is that I would like to consider a taller dog for Iskall first! Just feel in my gut dkdkj but i am taking notes!!!! It cute like a squished beagle!

Jämthund gets the wolf/husky look alike explanation above too

#im just afraid of drawing a bunch of too similar dogs #its pretty hard to find good refs for rarer breeds like these #and most differences are almos imperceptible or wouldn't be that apparent jn drawing form (like size) #i already got a person tagging my saluki wels as pearl so yea ill try to avoid too many look alikes dkdjjfkd #and who knows whats gonna come up when i get to life series and empires people #does that make sense?? skdjddkdj #bucket of answers #get doggified

Some quick and simple reference sheets for my dog characters who act as mounts to my other characters! To Avery, Nathan, Roy and Neena respectively. I still need to make at least three more of these to finish the set.

For full disclosure these are mostly traced from reference photos just to get the proportions and shapes and such correct, so I can just refer to these images when drawing them in the future without going into wild reference hunt every time.

Dog talk under the cut.

Avery's dog is kind and protective of everyone she considers as part of her pack but otherwise doesn’t like to socialize with others and prefers her or Avery’s company only. She’s mostly calm and collected but is always ready to help and protect Avery and her friends. Doesn’t mind others touching her but she’ll let you know when enough’s enough. Very alert and conscious of her surroundings. She has lived the nomad life with Avery her whole life and has seen her share of fights. She’s inspired by Jämthunds, Saarloos Wolfdogs and sled dogs.

Nathan's dog is some sort of an army breeding project reject. They’ve been in each others lives since it was a puppy and it’s very loyal to Nathan and doesn’t let anyone else touch it unless Nathan tells it to. Constantly keeps an eye on Nathan and is always ready to do anything he says. Has seen many battles and doesn’t hesitate to protect Nathan with it’s life. It’s inspired mostly by wolves and wolfdogs.

Roy and their dog have been together since Roy ran away from home to join the nomads as a teen. She’s seen a bunch of fights too, since Roy was good at getting into them. She might look scary and serious, but when she’s feeling safe she loves attention and rubs from anyone who is just willing to give them, so obviously she doesn’t mind others touching her. She’s very playful too, but she’s oftentimes too rough for other dogs’ liking. She doesn’t like sudden moves or loud noises though and might response aggressively to them. In battles she’s fierce and mostly only protects Roy and herself. Her skin is thick and loose so she can take a lot of punishment before it actually hurts or hinders her. Inspired mostly by various livestock guardian dogs.

Neena's dog is just a pet dog and has never seen a fight in it’s life. Yet :) It’s generally kind and friendly but prefers Neena’s company the most and likes to be close to her most of the time. It doesn’t mind others touching it, and it’ll just move away if it starts feeling uncomfortable. Once they start living the nomad life together with Neena, it’s very curious about everything but also on the edge more. When it comes to fighting, it might not have the skills or the training for it but protecting Neena comes naturally like an instinct. Trusts more in it’s speed and nimbleness in those situations; it’s the fastest one of all of the other canines here. Inspired by White Swiss Shepherd Dogs.

a karelian bear dog x jämthund mix sounds like a nightmare to own tho. that thing fears nothing and wants to kill everything.

You're not a preservation breeder if you take a working breed that is still very much used for work and breed dogs that don't have the ability to do so because ~*rare*~. Playing sports doesn't count as work so don't throw that one out either.

People such as yourself are the ones who make it hard for those of us who actually value the working ability of these dogs to import them. That goes for whatever breed you think you are preserving as well as others like it. Your actions have direct negative effects on everyone else.

And no, the "most dogs are pets/should adapt to modern life" excuse doesn't fly when the dogs that are being worked are doing just fine as they are.
