Swedish Vallhund Dogs | Iams Dog Breed Guide

In fact, the dog was at one time known as the "Vikingarnas," or "Viking Dog." The Vallhund was originally bred to herd cattle--with a short stature (good for nipping hocks) and an appropriate name ("Vallhund" means "herding dog").

Because of the breed's herding heritage, the SV's gait should have reach and drive and show great agility and endurance.
. . .
In 1964, the club gave the breed yet another name, "V?stg?taspets," which refers to the Swedish province from which the dog is believed to have originated.
