"This is our Norwegian Elkhound, Balto. He is very loving, energetic, and an excellent guard dog. If there’s anything moving within his eyesight or earshot, we know. He loves to play and take long runs in the woods. He absolutely loves the snow and playing in it."
"Balto the Norwegian Elkhound—his favorite game is soccer. He loves to try to steal the soccer ball and run away with it in his mouth."

"Tia the Norwegian Elkhound out on a walk wearing her new Illusion collar. While the collar is not a magic tool, it sure did help. When Tia wears her normal collar and she reacts to something she sees, for example another dog, or tries to suddenly pull off to the side, correcting her took a lot of effort. So much so that my shoulder would hurt by the end of the walk and Tia would often make choking sounds from suddenly trying to pull when she spotted something. She is a hunting dog after all, however there is nothing safe for her to hunt when you are walking down the sidewalks of a busy little town. I noticed a difference in the collar right away. Now when Tia starts to react to another barking dog it only takes a small little tug to correct her and she keeps on walking, ignoring the other dog much quicker. She's not trying to pull so persistently like she would, because when she does just a very short quick tug sends the message and reminds her to heel. I still need to correct her but it's so much easier on her and me, she responds so much quicker. With the Illusion collar Tia concentrates on walking rather than pulling excitedly and this gives her mind a chance to calm down and relax. Walks are so much more enjoyable for both of us! She's no longer choking herself. Tia's temperament has improved 100 fold from the day we adopted her from the pound. She's calm in the house and listens so well. We just love this dog."
This beautiful Norwegian Elkhound is named Gustav.
"Tyson the Norwegian Elkhound at 9 months old, weighing 45 pounds—he loves to nibble on people's ears, which is why we named him Tyson. He's a friendly dog but is very aware of his surroundings. He is super competitive he always has to beat us coming up the stairs."

"This is Jessie, our lovely four-year-old Norwegian Elkhound howling for the camera. She loves running in the woods and chasing mice and whatever else she can! She is very affectionate and loves to be petted. She is very obedient and you never have to repeat a command to her. She howls loudly to say hello to everyone that calls to visit! She gets on well with other dogs including her sister Casey the Golden Retriever although it's clear that she is the boss!!"
