Summary
About Hälleforshund
The Hälleforshund is a Swedish spitz-type moose hunter: medium–large, athletic, yellow with darker muzzle, and a weatherproof double coat. Energetic, independent, loyal and reserved with strangers, it needs extensive daily exercise, mental work, and experienced, outdoorsy owners.
About Whippet
Medium sighthound combining racing speed with calm companionship. Sleek, lean and Greyhound‑like, with a short, easy‑care coat but little weather protection. Sensitive, gentle and people‑oriented, it needs kind training, safe chances to sprint, soft warm bedding and a stable, quiet home.
