The Icelandic Sheepdog is a Nordic herding Spitz, slightly under medium sized with prick ears and a curled tail. Seen from the side the dog is rectangular. The expression is gentle, intelligent and happy. A confident and lively bearing is typical for this dog.

Thank you the adult dog was a rescue dog the owners adopted. They where told he was some kind of other breed but knew that was wrong. One day they run into another dog and owner which looked like the twin of the adult dog and found out which breed he was. He is a therapy dog today. The little guy is a pure breed and is in training to become a show dog. He is such a sweet dog and very smart. Icelandig Sheepdog are rare in the USA. They are great with other dogs and love people to top it off they are very smart. I hope to see the little guy win some major awards his owner is putting a lot of love and work into him there is no question that he will be going places.
