The Danish-Swedish Farmdog

The Farmdog was originally known as a Danish Pinscher. This little dog could be seen on the farms of both Denmark and Southern Sweden. The Farmdog was saved from extinction by the joint effort of the kennel clubs of Denmark and Sweden in 1987. Outgoing and versatile, the Farmdog loves to work and enjoys a challenge. They have excelled in a variety of dog sports and activities including obedience, agility, flyball, K9 Nose Work, lure coursing, and tracking. They work well as therapy and companion dogs and so much more.

Personality Plus
Farmdogs are very people oriented and are loving companions. They need their exercise and can be tenacious in their pursuit of the elusive rodent, snake, bird, leaf or grasshopper, but they have that all important “off switch” and will take that nap, after their work is done!  When they are brought into the family as a puppy, with the proper training and family life they can be and do almost anything.

Danish-Swedish Farmdogs are often mistaken for terriers, but their shape is more rectangular, and their structure is more angulated than most terrier breeds. And as we like to emphasize "They do have an OFF mode"

Lyric's Buckle Up Buttercup

Our Buckley, Buckles, Buckle-Buckle fits the phrase - "little big dog". She is a fierce, confident and solid pup in a small body and we love her to pieces. She is full of energy and then is ready for a good snuggle. She's still learning the dog show ways and that you need to stand still for the judge, not make them smile at your antics, and this walking straight and at a steady pace appears to be over-rated in her book. 

We have started working with her around the chickens and helping to get them all inside at night. The goats are still a bit intimidating and she lets her Pyrenees friends take care of the goats. Our adventures with Buckley are just beginning and the D-S Farmdog family is big, encouraging, welcoming and incredibly supportive.
