Kennel Little Denmark
Welcome to this web-site about this wonderfull little breed. Here You can read about the breed, us, our Kennel, and our dogs. We are located in Cheyenne, WY. We were only the second kennel in The US to breed registered (papered) puppies of this breed.We hope by this site to be able to inform others about the breed, which we fell in love with, and will always be happy to answer questions or provide help in regards to the breed.
We decided to name our kennel "Little Denmark", as the owner is 100% Danish. We thereby feel, that we through not just our dogs, but also our ownership, have a little piece of Denmark, right here in The US.
There are links other US Farmdog-kennels throughout this site, as we are all good friends, and work together for the breed.

Not a Danish Chicken Dog
The Danish/Swedish Farmdog has never been known as the Danish Chicken Dog, as stated in Bruce Fogle's "Encyclopedia of the dog".
The breed truly named Old Danish Chicken Dog (Gammel Dansk Hønsehund) is a very different breed. This breed is by mistake listed in the same encyclopedia as Old Danish Pointer.
We are in the process of trying to get these mistakes corrected, in future editions of the encyclopedia.
Breeding Program
The Danish-Swedish Farmdog is a rare breed in The US, and a small breed in it's origin countries - Denmark and Sweden. We are a charter member of DSFCA (Danish/Swedish Farmdog Club of America), and we hold membership in ARBA (American Rare Breed Association), DKK (Danish Kennel Club), DSGK (the Danish Breed Club), and RDSG (the Swedish Breed Club). We are comply with the code of ethics and breeding-guidelines provided by DSFCA and the Danish oganisations. We have an extensive mission-statement, as there is a lot of important issues to take into consideration, when working with this particular breed.
Our love for the breed, and our dogs, is greater than the wish to produce puppies.

The Danish-Swedish Farmdog
The Danish-Swedish Farmdog is an old Danish Pincher. It resided (as the name suggests) on the farms, and it's jobs were many. This dog will catch and kill mice, rats and other rhodents, it will herd large animals with no fear. It will play with the kids, do lots of fun tricks and can learn ANYthing. It is a lively, happy, out-going and active dog all day, without ever being extensively "hyper" as many terrier-breeds. When a busy day is over, it will try to move into Your bed, preferrably under the covers.
The Farmdogs need "jobs". This breed is an excellent obedience-dog, a fantastic fly-ball-dog, and a flashing fast agility-dog.
