These pups exhibit the behavior that has made them the family dog of choice by the Scandinavian dog culture folks. These dogs are ultra loyal, gentle and kind to the children, very good at watching and protecting and are truly fearless in remote terrain when encountering any kind of threat.
They have been used for the entire time as hiking and remote terrain dogs, great family companions and watch dogs for the yard and surroundings, house and animals.
This particular litter is remarkable as it’s the only Full Blood litter currently in North America, Kamia Kennels is the only known breeder of Full Bloods, Swedish Elkhound or Jamthunds in North America. They are preservation breeders of those and the beloved Norwegian Elkhound.
The lineages are known to be some of the very oldest and best known for handler focus. You’ll find decades of articles and videos of our dogs on these aspects.
Michael and Sarah have done a wonderful job with this incredible litter and it’s heartwarming to see the Fullblood pups out playing. Revna is an incredible female and of course ARCO is magnificent!
