Being Finnish-American and a dog lover, I know I'm not alone in being particular about the type of dog I'd like to own. In researching breeds, I have found the Finnish Hound to be the most popular breed in Finland. Additionally, they are even tempered, great for families, loads of endurance for running and hiking, and honestly, an attractive looking dog. But not being an American Kennel Club recognized breed, here in the U.S., interest is much less than in Finland. So much so that I have not been able to find a single owner or breeder here in the States. Having been able to make contact with a breeder in Finland, it does appear I can import a puppy later this year.
My question is to find out if I am really going where no one has gone before? Are there no other Finnish Hound (Suomenajokoira) owners among us that love to surround ourselves in Finnish-American culture?
Thanks in advance for insights anyone would care to share,
