Rowan

Rowan is our first Finnish Lapphund and he is really our big buddy. He was born on December 4th 2011 and is a very sweet darling. From the first moment we came in contact with this breed, we were both instantly in love. Such a beautiful appearance, super character, not too big, eager to learn, smart, relaxed at home, super with kids, but also a little bit stubborn 😉
Rowan is a real versatile working dog, with whom I have since followed various obedience courses, agility and sheep herding training and we are currently very active in search and rescue work and balance & coordination training. In February 2014 we passed the admission exam for the Alfa group of SLRHW and we train regularly.
At the end of January 2016 and 2018 we participated in a week of avalanche work in Oberstdorf (southern Germany), an unforgettable experience. In 2020 we will participate a follow-up course in avalanche work!

Rowan is available as a stud dog.
He is very easy going, social, sweet, a real pleaser, a dog that doesn’t look for any confrontations. Very stable character, cannot be fooled by anyone.
He is now the father of 20 healthy offspring. If you want more information about him, please contact me.
