Finnish Spitz fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Finnish Spitz is the national dog of Finland.

The Finnish Spitz breed was almost extinct by the late 1800s, but was brought back to life by two Finnish hunters named Hugo.

The Finnish Spitz used to be referred to as the "Finnish Barking Birddog," for its propensity to chase game up a tree and bark to alert its masters of the game's whereabouts. A "King Barker" Finnish Spitz is crowned annually in Finland.
