Scandinavian sheepdogs were used to herd all kinds of cattle,
sheep and even reindeer in the northern parts of Scandinavia and Finland.
You could describe them as a mix of Lapponian herder and Finnish spitz in build and looks.
Their fur is very thick and protects them from the weather. They have a double coat.

There are a few colours and patterns that aren't accepted for the Scandinavian sheepdog.
- Diluted liver (isabella/lilac) is not wanted, but some dogs carry the combination of liver and dilution genes.
Diluted liver is now allowed.
- Brindle is not wanted.
- They don't carry the greying or harlequin genes.
- Ticking on white areas should be minimal if there is any, which means that roan isn't wanted.
- A double merle dog should never be bred.

- Also, blue eyes should only be present with either white around the eyes or a blue (black) merle coat.
- Atleast minimal white on the coat is wanted, but no white isn't an error.

- Note to artists: You can still design a dog with anything of the above (except double merle), but a dog like that can only breed once.
This doesn't mean a dog with a recessive gene, a dog that doesn't show those markings, but has the gene.
So for example BbDd, (black, non-dilute) or bbDd (liver, non-dilute) dog can still breed as many times as the current amount in the breeding rules says.

What are the most common colours/combinations?
- Piebald is quite common, but even that there would be white surrounding the eyes, yellow or brown eyes are more common than blue eyes with this marking.
- Blue (black) and red (liver) Merle are also common, but tweed is quite rare.
- Black or liver with white trim is probably the most common color.

What are rare traits?
- Split (two colours in one eye) or wall eyes (two different coloured eyes) are rare.
