Our most gorgeous Gypsi Roselee will have some amazing puppies as she is a stunner. The Swedish Vallhund dates back to 18th Century Sweden where the breed was utilised as farm dogs, primarily for herding cattle. The Swedish Vallhund is known in its native land as Vastgotaspets, which means Spitz of the West Goths. This dog is also known as the Swedish Shepherd. In Sweden it is believed the Vallhund travelled to Wales with the Viking raiders and went on to become the ancestor of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi. The Swedish Vallhund was first introduced into Australia in 1981. BREED PERSONALITY, CHARACTERISTICS AND TEMPERAMENT The Swedish Vallhund is a chirpy little working dog, in which the herding instinct is still very evident. An energetic breed, the Vallhund is friendly, active, agile and very intelligent. It responds well to training due to its eager-to-please personality and is very trustworthy with children. These dogs do well at obedience, love agility and are accomplished trackers. COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER PETS The Swedish Vallhund is quite trustworthy with other dogs. CARE REQUIREMENTS Vallhunds are tough, hardy dogs, not subject to any particular ailment. When properly cared for, they are seldom ill. Their low maintenance coat is weather resistant and easily repels mud and grime. They have a major moult at least once a year.

Yggdrasil (id-ra-sil) was the Tree Of Life in Ancient Norse Mythology. Swedish Vallhunds are an ancient breed of Nordic dogs.

Over many years I have watched Swedish Vallhunds at various shows and researched the breed for several years. I made the decision in 2016 to investigate welcoming a Vallhund into our home, so the journey began. Our first family member came from New Zealand from Osuno. Vallhunds and German Shepherds are amazing together. Our Vallhunds love to play with the Shepherds. At shows and wherever we take our Vallhund they are happy and loves to mix with any other breed of dog around. Nothing bothers them. They love meeting people and always warn us when someone is coming down the long drive often before the GSD's do. I am sure at times these little balls of energy think they are German Shepherds with short legs. They love to explore and check out everything and are such happy dogs to have around. Looking forward to growing our family of Vallhunds, we now have Titan and Annie to join our show team. Like our German Shepherds we do all the health testing available hip and elbow x-rays and a full DNA profile. We are part of the Swedish Vallhund Diversity testing program. Our Vallhunds are regular visitors to Bunnings and around our local shops and markets. They are an amazing breed and can be involved in many activities, lure coursing, scent work, Agility, tricks, Rally to name a few.
