Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This cute dog came to us from Kings County Animal Shelter SO WE HAVE NO BACK HISTORY ON THIS DOG. WHAT IS LISTED HERE IS WHAT WE KNOW AT THIS POINT!
Hi my name is Karson and I am appox 10 months to a year old. I am a Swedish Vallhund mix! I am beyond a sweet lovable boy! So many people say that they want to adopt a sweet little girl! You got it all wrong the baby boys are proven to be more sweet and lovable! All I want is to have someone love me and keep me safe! I do not want to be abandoned and alone! I want to have a family and a friend who is a dog who can help me grow up like a normal stable dog!
All dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on shots, micro chipped, crate trained, doggy door trained (we have no flap) socialized with other dogs large and small! All our dogs live in our home but we HAVE NO CARPET SO no matter how good a dog can do here we always suggest keep up the crate training and the dog will need guidance!

"The FCI Standard calls the Swedish Vallhund "watchful, alert, and energetic."
Spirited and athletic, yet steady and dependable, the Swedish Vallhund is a true "big dog with short legs."
Hiking, herding, obedience, agility, or chasing balls (with surprising speed) are enjoyable outlets for the Vallhund's enthusiasm and desire to work.
Swedish Vallhunds love to be challenged with new tasks. If his days include such moderate exercise, along with the loving companionship of his family, he is adaptable and easy to live with.
Most Swedish Vallhunds are friendly (or at least polite) with everyone and make sensible watchdogs. Most are fine with other animals and especially wonderful with livestock, including horses.
This attentive breed learns quickly and responds well to obedience training, but he does combine the independent judgment of a herding breed with the persistent, sometimes manipulative nature of the spitz family. You must have the confidence to establish and consistently enforce rules, or he may make up his own.
Swedish Vallhunds prefer their flock (family members and other pets) to be gathered together and may try to accomplish this by poking or nipping."
