Totty earned her third leg for her RN - Rally Novice - title this weekend so she is now officially: - Vinlands Totty, CGC, RN. As you can see, she's exhausted from meeting all those new people and dogs. Bear got his first leg. (Bear forgot what "Down!" means - Totally. He's really cute but - - -)

"Undoubtedly, the Iceland Dog descends from the Norwegian Finn-Dog, but thanks to the altered circumstances under which it has lived in Iceland, it has assumed a somewhat different appearance and another character."

"The Iceland Dog - - - is characterized by a pointed nose, prick ears, thick fur, and a curly tail, which is carried bent upwards over the back; obviously it is a near relative of the wolf, with which it frequently interbreeds.- - - The eyes are often blue and this peculiarity is perpetuated - - - ."
