Norwegian Buhund Breed Description - The Furry Critter Network

An intensive search for a scent, for instance searching a ship for contraband, can actually be very fatiguing for a dog, and the dog must be motivated to continue this hard work for a long period of time.
. . .
A countershaded animal will have dark coloring on its upper surfaces and light coloring below.
. . .
This intelligence is expressed differently with different breeds and individuals, however.
. . .
One reminder of this pattern is that many breeds will have the occasional "blaze", stripe, or "star" of white fur on their chest or undersides.
. . .
The characteristics and behavior of these two types of scent trail would seem, after some thought, to be quite different, the air scent being intermittent but perhaps less obscured by competing scents, whereas the ground scent would be relatively permanent with respect to careful and repetitive search by the dog, but would seem to be much more contaminated with other scents.
. . .
For dogs that do not have traditional jobs, a wide range of dog sports provide the opportunity to exhibit their natural skills.
