Our Dams & Sire

A passion for the breed

Our farm requires the staple of our favorite breed – the Norwegian Elkhound.

Here are a few of the reasons we love this breed:

Hardy

Elkhounds are a tough breed created to tolerate cold climates and rugged environments.

Loyal

We have yet to have an Elkhound that didn’t want to be by our side in some way, shape or form.

Smart

Often confused with stubborn, this breed is very logical and will find their own solution if necessary.

Medium Sized

Considered a medium-sized breed whose back typically stands about as tall as an average person’s knees.

Life Span

We usually see our dogs living until they are at least 15 years old from our experience.

Easy to Train

Since they are smart, it doesn’t take a lot to train them. It just takes consistent, clear directions.
