the Swedish Wahlund appeared. Some believe that the dogs appeared in Great Britain\u2019s territory with the Vikings, while others think that the dogs are descended from the Pembroke. The dogs\u2019 home is the Vestgoth valley, which is located between Lake Wettern and Lake Wettern. Hence the other name of the dogs is the Visigoth Barker or the Visigoth Spitz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During World War II, the number of Swedish Vallhunds decreased significantly, and the breed was on the verge of extinction. But thanks to the lovers of this breed, it was possible to restore the dogs and make them famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Count Bjorn von Rosen actively helped restore the breed and wrote articles for the city\u2019s famous newspapers, thus increasing its popularity. The International Canine Federation officially approved the breed in 1954. Nowadays, dogs are not often seen in the world; most often, they live in Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"appearance\">Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Swedish Vallhund is of medium size, the males\u2019 height is about 33 cm, the females \u2013 31 cm, a variation of 3 cm is allowed.
